Last week, loads of menu updates and price increases hit Disney World restaurants.
This week, we got some big news about the reopening of Akershus Royal Banquet Hall in EPCOT and got a reopening date for Fantasmic! in Hollywood Studios, as well as the return of the Fantasmic! dining packages. We’ve got menu updates, too, so let’s take a look at those.

Dave G. says
I have been planning to bring my grandchild for his first (probably only) trip to WDW since November of 2021, I tracked food prices on a spreadsheet to help determine how much money I need to feed the crew. From then to today I have seen an increase of at least 20% overall total cost I figure for eating. Not including snacks. I am not rich, and am not poor, just a near middle class family and this is about it for real visits. I will continue to view article vlogs and other streaming of all things Disney but do not see the value of going there like I used to.
