Disney has unveiled a luxurious way to ring in the New Year with "Tiana's New Year's Adventure" at California Grill.

This celebration combines character interactions, live music, fine dining, and a view of the Magic Kingdom's New Year's Eve fireworks.

Event Details

  • Date: December 31, 2024
  • Time: 7:30 PM to 12:30 AM (Check-in begins at 7:00 PM)
  • Reservations: Call (407) 824-2013 (Guests under 18 need parent/guardian permission to call)
  • Price: $799, tax and gratuity included

Entertainment and Atmosphere

Guests will step into the whimsical world of New Orleans with appearances by Princess Tiana, Prince Naveen, and a cast of beloved characters. While Tiana and Naveen are there to greet guests and sample cuisine, they're unaware that a few friends from the bayou—thanks to Mama Odie's magic—are crashing the party. Mama Odie's playful spells keep Tiana's friend Louis and other critters out of sight, but as the night progresses, Tiana may start to suspect something and enlist guests' help to solve the mystery.

Expect an evening filled with lively music, dancing, and a midnight champagne toast to welcome 2025.

Crazy pants!! I can't imagine being in the CG for 5 hours much less paying $799 a person to be bored while I graze between food stations. Hard pass.

In years past this was an open bar event with access to a wide selection of wines. I’m guessing it no longer includes alcohol other than the toast.
