3. Upcharges and guaranteed seating are available, but make your reservations early

As the return of Happily Ever After is bound to be quite the event, those who want to see the show with a guaranteed viewing area have a number of options for dessert parties, including the following: 

• Magic Kingdom Fireworks Dessert Pre-Party: Guests attending this upcharge can stop by Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant to enjoy a dessert buffet, a variety of cheeses, and both non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages. Then, before the show begins, Cast Members will escort guests of this party to a reserved standing viewing location in one of the plaza gardens for Happily Ever After. Admission is $99 per adult (ages 10 and up); $59 per child (ages 3 to 9), tax included.
• Magic Kingdom Seats & Sweets Fireworks Dessert Party: Similar to the pre-party guests attending this event can enjoy 50^th anniversary-themed desserts, a variety of cheeses, and both non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages. However, when the show starts, they can stay at Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant and watch Happily Ever After from there. Admission is $114 per adult (ages 10 and up); $69 per child (ages 3 to 9), tax included.
• Disney Enchantment After-Party: Finally, the after-party includes the same treats, drinks and reserved seating, but after Happily Ever After instead of before at the Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant. Admission is $99 per adult (ages 10 and up); $59 per child (ages 3 to 9), tax included  .

Several dates are already sold out for these experiences, so if you are planning to attend one of them make sure to check the official Walt Disney World website to make advance reservations as soon as possible to secure your spot. Currently, Happily Ever After is scheduled to perform once nightly at 9:00 pm through late May. Then, the schedule will shift slightly and the show will begin at 9:20 pm.

However, as we approach the summer travel months, we may see twice-nightly performances of the show, especially since it has been so popular. Times guides and the most-up-to-date information is always available via the Disney World app, so make sure you check it in advance of your visit to avoid any timing mishaps. 

Ferrytale Fireworks Cruise is unavailable from now through mid-July

One option that long-time dessert party fans may notice is missing from this list is the Ferrytale Fireworks Dessert Cruise. According to Disney's official website, this party had its last sailing on March 30, and is now under refurbishment until at least July 5. This is definitely a curious choice as this upcharge allowed for a great view of the fireworks and would have been a great option for those looking to check out Happily Ever After's return from a unique angle.

However, it does look as though Disney will be bringing the Ferrytale Fireworks Cruise back at some point, so guests looking to check it out will just need to be patient while changes are being made to this experience. Keep an eye on the official upcharge experience page for more on when it will return. 

Though Disney Enchantment certainly was a show that happened at the Magic Kingdom for a little over a year, most fans are happy to see it gone, and are cheering the return of the fan-favorite Happily Ever After. What's your take on this returning show? Are you happy to see Disney bring it back, or would you have rathered something new replace Disney Enchantment?
