Disney World has a few different fireworks dessert parties and they have fireworks cruises too. Now they have added a dessert party that happens after the fireworks show.
Starting on May 28, guests will be able to watch the Happily Ever After fireworks show from the Plaza Garden first and enjoy the desserts after the fireworks have finished. The dessert party takes place at Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant, which is the same venue for the original Fireworks Dessert Party. The popularity of the original dessert party is what led Disney to the decision to add this new dessert party to the lineup.
Just like the other dessert parties, guests will be able to choose from a selection of desserts and other foods. It’s also an all-you-care-to-enjoy dessert party, like the original, so you can have as many of each dessert as you would like. Disney has added a fun aspect to the menu too with inspiration for the desserts coming from the different lands of Magic Kingdom. Also, when the party takes place during special events or holidays, desserts themed to those holidays will be included in the dessert lineup.

Fireworks Dessert Party Price Increase
With the addition of this new dessert party Disney is also increasing the price of the Fireworks Dessert Party with Plaza Garden Viewing and the Fireworks Dessert Party at Tomorrowland Terrace. The new prices start for parties on or after May 28, parties through May 27 will be the old pricing.
The new cost for the Fireworks Dessert Party with Plaza Garden Viewing is $69 per adult and $41 per child (the same as the new After Fireworks Dessert Party), which is up from $59 per adult and $35 per child. The new cost for the Fireworks Dessert Party at Tomorrowland Terrace is $84 per adult and $50 per child, up from $79 per adult and $47 per child.
Guests who have booked the Fireworks Dessert Party with Plaza Garden Viewing are voicing concerns over the possibility of overcrowding with the addition of the new party. I have not heard Disney respond to questions of how they will handle both parties being in the same area, but I will update this post if I hear anything.
What do you think of the addition of this new party?

I love all things Disney, but my main love is for Disney World and I'm always planning for the next trip. Before becoming a Disney blogger, I was a radio DJ, so I guess I'm just continuing in the communication industry, just in a different form. I love talking Disney and I could talk about Disney all day. That's why I started blogging and created the Facebook group. The Disney community is full of friendly, helpful, and happy people...and I love being a part of it! If there is any Disney subject you would like to see covered just let me know! Need help planning your Disney vacation. Feel free to contact myself or Melissa at Never Stop Dreaming Travel Co. We love helping people plan their trips! Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy! Don't forget to check out our Countdown to Disney app! Feel free to email me with suggestions of things you would like to see in the app :-)
Love the idea of these later desserts, but am concerned that more people will be squashed into the same area as the earlier dessert party. I don’t think you get your dollars worth of desserts but to be in an uncrowded area to view HEA is worth a lot to me.
Hi Margaret!
I’m hoping Disney will have different areas for the two parties roped off, but I’m not sure. I agree about paying more for the uncrowded viewing area than the desserts. I’ve only been to one dessert party and, unfortunately, the desserts were not great. I’ve been hesitant to try another one because of the cost, but I might try one of the Magic Kingdom dessert parties.
My daughter surprised me with dessert party tickets and we agree the desserts are not at all great. I feel bad she spent the money. However having a place for fireworks was fun. Would rather skip dessert and spend $10 for a spot to watch.
Is this like a event or something they do every night?
It takes place on select nights throughout the year.
