Just wondering for someone who is going to go most likely once in a lifetime are any of these dining packages essential in order to secure seatings to the shows?
WOC Dessert Party is the only way to get a seat in a chair to watch that show. There is VIP seating and a disability section, but general viewing is all standing. The WOC Dessert Party is a very nice experience at the end of a long day in the parks.Just wondering for someone who is going to go most likely once in a lifetime are any of these dining packages essential in order to secure seatings to the shows?
Im still on the fence for the dessert party over the dining package. We've done the dining package before and I get there early to get the rail. Im worried if we get the dessert party that we wont see the projections. Even if we get the high tops.

Ive seen several pics of those sitting at the WOC dessert party. It seems you only really see the water because of those standing, some with kids on their shoulders. The desserts look like what was given back at the fantasmic dessert party, which we really enjoyed and miss. Thinking I may go for the dining package and camp out at the rail so we can see the projectionsFantasmic’s first showing is the only show difficult to see without a dining package (Hungry Bear, RiverBelle Terrace, or Blue Bayou).
The second showing is late and it’s not too difficult to walk up and get a spot, unless it’s very busy weekend.
World of Color dining packages and dessert party are okay but not necessary. Neither guarantee the best view. The dining package and dessert party viewing is okay, but I’ve gotten better views with the virtual queue and showing up early and again the second show usually has walk up space available.
I’ve done the dessert party twice and have been disappointed both times. The desserts/snacks are very mediocre. The drinks are better but are insanely sweet. You’re really just paying for a chair. However, if you’re not in the first row or high top seating the view kinda sucks, to get one of the good seats you gotta line up early anyway. Some seats you will have the dining package people standing in front, you’re one tier up, but it just puts your seated height equal to their standing height. Some are so off center it’s difficult to see the screen. Did I mention the mediocre desserts, packaged crackers, and dry cheese?
You can see all of the shows without any extra packages, you just might be watching the later shows. If you have young kids Hungry Bear to see the first Fantasmic show is the best bang for your buck. None of the WoC packages are particularly worth it, if you are willing to use the virtual queue and stake out a spot.
I purchased the dessert package on September 2nd. It was the first time we had seen WOC, but I thought we could see the projections just fine. We enjoyed it and definitely liked having a chair. I saw it a couple weeks ago and had a hard time standing for so long. Not to mention tall people blocking my view.Ive seen several pics of those sitting at the WOC dessert party.

Thanks for the pics! Were you on the high tops? I know some of the projections are at water level. Were you able to see those? We've camped at the rail several times so we have no problem. Its more important that we see the entire projections as my Mechanical engineering/ industrial design major can see for the computer mapping aspect.

We were seated for WOC desert party and we had excellent views. We are also both short. I don't remember seriously obstructed views or feeling that we were missing the projections.Im still on the fence for the dessert party over the dining package.

Great! Were you front row or high top? First or second show?We were seated for WOC desert party and we had excellent views. We are also both short. I don't remember seriously obstructed views or feeling that we were missing the projections.
I'm sorry I can't be more helpful. It was three years ago and I don't remember where we were sitting, but I'm pretty sure it was first show.Great! Were you front row or high top? First or second show?
Thanks for this! I am hoping to do the second show which Ive heard can be less crowded and try to get the last level of high tops.I just bought WOC dessert party for my wife and father in law a couple weeks ago. They had an absolute blast. They were at the high tops, I think up one level (there was another party at a table in front of them). They had a fantastic view and could see all the projections. Said the desserts were fine, not amazing but ok. They didn’t know it was $89 each but said we should do it again as a group (I stayed in the hotel with our young daughters who were sleeping).
My father in law’s one complaint was he didn’t know it was a 2 drink limit! He thought it was unlimited and was bummed when he finished his two (small) glasses of wine before the show even started!
I have seen WOC with desert package and dining package. By far and away I prefer the dessert package. I am short, it is inevitable for me to have viewing obstructions when it is standing room only.Im still on the fence for the dessert party over the dining package.

We've done the dessert party many times over the years and have not yet had a bad experience. I'm short, so an unobstructed view is important and not always easy to get. Checking in early and speaking with the CM about any specific needs helps.Im still on the fence for the dessert party over the dining package.
