It appears that Hollywood and Vine at Disney’s Hollywood Studios will offer a special Minnie’s Holiday and Dine character Dinner for the Disney World holiday season. Disney removed Hollywood and Vine Dinner from reservation booking a couple of weeks ago and it left guests wondering what was going on. The character lineup is said to offer Minnie, Mickey, Daisy and Donald in their holiday finest and Santa Goofy. There’s no way of knowing which costumes the first several characters will wear at this time.
The meal should be available from November 7, 2015 to January 3, 2016. The standard character meal should be 1 Table Service Credit and the Fantasmic! package version will be 2 credits. The cost of the standard meal is said to be $50 per adult and $28 per child (3-9 years).
The menu appeared briefly on the My Disney Experience app, the was removed. I was able to screenshot it before it was removed to demonstrate there is some evidence that this meal should be occurring.
As of July 18, 2015 the meal is NOT yet open for booking and is still considered a strong rumor until it is actually announced. I would expect Disney to announce the meal soon.
I can only find info for the fantastic meal. Is the regular meal still an option?
Yes
CM just said it would open on the 7th and would be 1 TS for either reg dinner or the fantasmic package. time will tell
Oy Vey, this week has been torture. Back and forth to the site/app just looking for a glimmer of hope.
Any word yet on when this might open up?
Hopefully soon
Do you feel it will be the end of the week so that the Food and Wine reservations will have calmed down?
Not sure
I called today – the 25th. They thought they were booking do she put me on hold. I was pumped. When she came back she said they were not but any day now! I asked if I should try calling every day- she said I could but they would post it! I need this reservation!!!
I heard this week
Would you expect this to be booked through normal online/MDE process? Or is this a special event that you would need to phone to book?
Regular when it is released
Wait I re read-Dinner duh!
So we have a lunch time HW&V for the 8th-will this still be Disney Junior or Minnies Christmas? Any ideas?
Minnie will be Dinner only
Any guess as to when it will open up for booking?
Don’t know
Any word on what’s happening with Mama Melrose in Hollywood Studios? Reservations are no longer available there come January 2016 (and I am within my 180 days as I have 3 Be Our Guest reservations for that week).
Could be a refurb or closure. Much of Hollywood Studios will undergo major changes in coming months and years.
I can’t wait!!
Gah!! The original release was supposed to be July 2st and then it was put on hold. I’ve been stalking it every day!
