It Doesn’t Get Sweeter Than Disney’s Dessert Parties!

Disney’s Dessert Parties

By Jade Monzo, Owner, Rope Drop Travel April 3, 2020

Looking for some ways to make your Disney World vacation even sweeter? Consider partaking in some decadent desserts and VIP treatment at one of Disney’s many dessert parties! I highly suggest reserving these coveted reservations at your 180-day mark to secure you will get to enjoy one of these amazing dessert parties! All have additional pricing, and, in most cases, a separate theme park ticket is required.  

While in Epcot satisfy your sweet tooth with Frozen-inspired treats during a seated viewing of IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth at the Frozen Ever After Dessert Party at Epcot World Showcase. Then, enjoy a special opportunity to ride the Frozen Ever After attraction. This is a great way to get to ride this coveted ride without the use of a Fastpass!

If you’re spending the day in Magic Kingdom consider making a reservation for the Fireworks Dessert Party at Tomorrowland Terrace or the Fireworks Dessert Party with Plaza Garden Viewing where you will feast on delectable desserts before enjoying the spectacle of Magic Kingdom fireworks from the comfort of a terrace seating area! As showtime approaches, you’ll be escorted to your seats on the patio of Tomorrowland Terrace or to a prime standing area in the Plaza Garden. Then, just sit back and relax - and watch in amazement as the skies ignite and Cinderella Castle glows with enchanting illuminations. 

Star Wars fans in your family? Then Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular Dessert Party at Disney's Hollywood Studios is a must! Indulge in delectable Star Wars-themed desserts and drinks—plus a souvenir stein—before adjourning to watch the fireworks from a reserved viewing area. 

Also at Hollywood Studios is the opportunity to reserve Fantasmic! Dessert & VIP Viewing Experience where you are treated to decadent desserts while you enjoy VIP seating for the outdoor extravagant musical Fantasmic! It all starts at the Fantasmic! theater where you’ll pick up your freshly prepared snacks inspired by the show. Menu items feature a variety of sweet and salty sensational treats for adults or children such as chocolate-dipped strawberries, and our personal favorite, the make-your-own “worms and dirt” pudding! After you pick up your food and beverage, you’ll be directed to a VIP reserved seating area for Fantasmic! Then, just sit back, enjoy and watch the nighttime extravagant musical where the forces of good and evil battle it out in Mickey’s dream 

Want to sweeten your night at a party featuring dream-come-true desserts and dazzling water views of the fireworks from Magic Kingdom park? During Ferrytale Fireworks: A Sparkling Dessert Cruise, you’re invited to a unique dessert party featuring unforgettable views of the evening fireworks, all from the iconic General Joe Potter ferryboat named after the longtime Disney Legend! Then, after setting sail, celebrate your senses with decadent sweets, tasty specialty beverages, with or without alcohol, and, of course, one-of-a-kind views of world-famous fireworks blooming over Magic Kingdom park. 

A fun experience for the pirate lovers in your family is the Pirates & Pals Fireworks Dessert Voyage. Grab yer mateys to feast on tasty treats and then embark on a cruise of Seven Seas Lagoon! During your voyage, you may encounter some fearsome pirates and behold a spectacular fireworks finale! 

Join the Disney Princess from the land of bewitching bayous for an ice cream social on the water complete with VIP parade viewing during the Tiana's Riverboat Party - Ice Cream Social & Viewing Party. Board the Liberty Square Riverboat and relax while enjoying the Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade - all from the comfort of your special viewing location! After the parade, Tiana and Naveen will join you to continue the party as you all cruise around the Rivers of America, circling Tom Sawyer Island.
