It’s officially the holiday season in Disney World, and that means it’s already December.
December can sometimes be a more quiet time in Disney Parks, but this December will see the return of two restaurants, live entertainment, and more! Check it out here.
Reopenings
There are two restaurants reopening at Disney World in December!
Boatwright’s Dining Hall
Boatwright’s Dining Hall is reopening on December 14th at Port Orleans — Riverside! When Port Orleans recently reopened, Boatwright’s remained closed, and Disney did not release a reopening date.
Boatwright’s is a casual table service restaurant where you can find yourself dining on Southern Louisiana dishes within a boat-construction warehouse, and you can begin making dining reservations on December 2nd.
Read more about Boatwright’s reopening soon here!
Story Book Dining at Artist Point
Story Book Dining at Artist Point will reopen for dinner December 16th in Disney’s Wilderness Lodge. The character dining restaurant will reopen with a prix fixe menu that’s had a few updates.
The characters will be modified for now, and reservations open on December 2nd, so mark your calendar if you want to see Snow White and a Dwarf or two!
Learn more about the new menu coming to Story Book Dining soon!
Club Service Returns
Club Levels have already returned to a few Disney World Resort hotels, and now two more resorts join the list in December! Disney’s Wilderness Lodge Club Level rooms will reopen on December 16th, joining four other Disney World Resort hotels.
Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort Club Level rooms will also reopen on December 16th. Club Levels offer special amenities, like access to the Club Level Lounge where guests can enjoy a complimentary continental breakfast, evening wine and beer, and more.
