What is the Fantasmic Dining Package?

The Fantasmic Dining Packages at Disneyland let you enjoy a delicious meal and also receive reserved or VIP seating for the Fantasmic! show later in the evening. Currently, these dinner packages are available through Hungry Bear Restaurant, Blue Bayou, and River Belle Terrace, both of which are a table service restaurant.

Hungry Bear Fantasmic! On-The-Go Package

This package is the one I decided to purchase for my family on our recent trip. I liked that I didn’t have to use park time for a sit-down dinner, but if that is what you like, you might want to consider a Blue Bayou dining package or a River Belle dining package.

I booked advanced reservations for this package 60 days before the day we planned to use it as these packages can be in high demand. The reservations were released on the Disneyland site at 6:00 am Pacific Time. I found that for booking this package, it was easier to use the website over the app.

How Much is the Hungry Bear Fantasmic Dinner Package?

For this on-the-go dining package, the price for adults was $35 and $25 for kids.

Hungry Bear Dining Package Food Review

Two of my sons and I ordered the BBQ Ribs dinner. I thought it was delicious! The BBQ sauce was sweet and tangy, the food was warm, and the ribs were fall off the bone! I thought the food quality was great!

My husband ordered the Half Chicken and thought it was moist and flavorful. He finished the rest of my son’s ribs though, and said that he wished he had ordered that instead of the chicken.

The potato salad was delicious and the broccoli was seasoned well. The S’mores dessert wasn’t my favorite. I would say that it was just ok.

My 8-year-old had the Mac & Cheese and said it was great! He just wished that his meal had come with a dessert as well. Surprisingly, my picky eaters loved their meals!

Reserved Viewing Location

The reserved viewing section is right up front in New Orleans Square, across the Rivers of America from Tom Sawyer Island. I would say we were a little to the left of the exact center stage. Check out my video here to see what the view was like. A cast member will let you know what time to arrive at the show and where to sit to enjoy your great view! Be aware that if you do book this package, your will be sitting on the ground to enjoy the show.

When to Arrive at the Reserved Viewing Area

The night we purchased the dining package, Fantasmic! was set to begin at 9:00 pm. Our ticket for the Hungry Bear section of the reserved area said to arrive about 30-45 minutes before showtime, so between 8:15-8:30.

Fireworks

If you want to view the fireworks after Fantasmic! the show will usually start about 10 minutes later. It was great to just stay in our spot because the castle projections are also projected onto the water in front of Tom Sawyer Island and the music is played there as well. It even began to “snow” over us, just like it does on Main Street!

Is the Hungry Bear Package Worth It?

I would say that depends. I honestly have not seen Fantasmic in years, mostly because I am not a fan of trying to fight others to save a spot for the show.

So for me, the Fantasmic Dining Package was totally worth it. It relieved the stress of finding a spot for the show and allowed me to enjoy more park time with my family.
