Pizzafari Family-Style Dining To Debut at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park

Pizzafari, one of the most popular quick-service restaurants at Disney’s Animal Kingdom® Theme Park, serving up freshly baked pizzas and delicious Italian-inspired eats has a new exciting offering coming this summer! Starting July 31, 2018, you will be able to choose between a classic quick-service experience or making a reservation for the brand-new Pizzafari Family-Style Dining Experience.

To get ready for an Italian feast set in one of the restaurant’s wildly vibrant dining rooms, you will need to stop by the podium to check in upon arrival. After placing the drink orders, you will be seated in one of two dining rooms that have been designated for this new experience. Once seated, enjoy a selection of family-style plates delivered right to the table: two appetizers (Caprese Salad and Caesar Salad), as well as three entrees, including pasta, chicken, and pizza dishes, and end the meal with a sweet dessert!

Pizzafari Family-Style Dining will be offered between 5pm and 8pm daily starting July 31, 2018. Cost is $19.99 for Guests ages 10 and older and $11.99 for Guests ages 3-9, including tax and non-alcoholic beverages. Beer and wine will also be available for separate purchase. This experience also counts as one Disney Dining Plan quick service meal entitlement. Reservations are now available online at DisneyWorld.com/Dine or by calling 407-WDW-DINE (407-939-3463).

Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Midst of Multi-Year Transformation

Toy Story Land and Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy are part of a multi-year transformation of Disney’s Hollywood Studios, where guests will experience their own adventures in the worlds of their cinematic imaginations and make cherished memories like never before. Upcoming attractions and experiences in and around the park include:

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge

Late fall 2019 is liftoff for the new 14-acre land inviting guests to live their own Star Wars adventures, taking them inside stories from a galaxy far, far away. Guests will explore Black Spire Outpost, the largest settlement on the remote planet Batuu. Here they will meet characters both familiar and new and experience the sights, sounds, smells, tastes and adventures of the Outer Rim and Wild Space.

One attraction will be an epic Star Wars adventure unlike anything Disney has ever created. It will put guests in the middle of a battle between the First Order and the Resistance. Elsewhere in the land, guests will step aboard the Millennium Falcon and pilot the fastest ship in the galaxy, firing laser cannons and steering the starship through deep space.

In summer 2019, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge will also open at Disneyland Park in Southern California.

Immersive Star Wars-Themed Resort Hotel

Fans will live out their Star Wars adventures beyond the theme parks with an epic experience at a groundbreaking new Star Wars-themed hotel concept located near Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Guests will enjoy a one-of-a-kind experience where a luxury resort meets a multi-day adventure in the Star Wars galaxy, as adventures unfold around their starship. An opening date will be announced later.

Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway

Opening in 2019, the first ride-through attraction themed to Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse will feature a new original story and lovable theme song as it takes Disney’s Hollywood Studios guests on a journey inside the wacky and unpredictable world of Disney Channel’s Emmy Award-winning Mickey Mouse cartoon shorts. New technologies will transform the two-dimensional cartoon world into an astounding multi-dimensional experience.

Disney Junior Dance Party

In fall 2018, the new Disney Junior Dance Party premieres at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. This interactive performance will feature high-energy music, a vibrant party atmosphere, special effects and characters from popular Disney Junior TV shows. Guests join all the fun with the stars of “Mickey and the Roadster Racers,” “Doc McStuffins,” “The Lion Guard” and the newest hit series, “Vampirina.”
