dessert while watching illuminations?

princessariel · 01-27-2009, 12:53 PM

My travel agent said this is something that is offered to large groups(different than the Grand Gatherings I'm guessing). It's not on the boats but a reserved section for us to watch and we get a dessert buffet. Have you done this?
TIA

I haven't done it but sounds great. Illuminations and food!

Yum!

I saw this in the Unoffical Guide too:
Disney World Orlando Dining

That dessert could really add up.

Thanks!! I don't think that's it though for some reason..she made it sound like something cheaper.
We are doing a Fantasmic dinner buffet(at the very back of the show area) for around $25 pp.

We signed up for this and I can't wait. We get a dessert buffet(35 pp) and our own private area to watch Illuminations! We are doing a special dinner for Fantasmic. I only wish they had something special for Wishes.

For Wishes I love eating at the castle and finishing right before the show so as soon as I walk out, I'm in the first row for the show! =)

There's a dessert buffet at the Tomorrowland Noodle Terrace running until August 28th!

So what are the details for the Illuminations one? Do you have to be a big group? If so, do you know how many?

I wonder if this is similar to the Tikifest Dessert Party that's being held on August 6th? I'm looking forward to this. Fireworks and food; a good combination.

It's on my school computer and I can't access it from home

I can get it to you next week if you still want it.

You can have any size group, it's just that the size of your group will determine where in World Showcase you are placed. The menus start at $22/pp. We're doing one as part of our Disney wedding but if you contact Disney dining (I think) they can get you more info.

Update to this

It was fantastic!! I'll do it with every group I go with from here on out.
The kids loved it. We had ours on the patio that is right over the bridge from France as you near the UK.

They had about 3 different kinds of brownies, all sorts of cookies, some other type of dessert and a cooler of all the ice cream treats. We had coffee, water and some other types of drinks.

We were there about 30 min before the show started and had an entirely uninterrupted view. They let us hang out as long as we wanted to afterwards to miss the crowds on the way home.

It was well worth it!
