Coming to the Cali Grill, starting October the 2nd

Celebration at the Top: 50th Flavors & Fireworks at Disney's Contemporary Resort - Opening October 2, 2021

Celebrate on Top of the World
Join us for an intimate event as we toast the 50th anniversary of Walt Disney World Resort.
Indulge in a high-energy cocktail party enjoying fine food, simmering sips and beautiful music while you await an incredible fireworks spectacular.
Upon your arrival, dine on culinary offerings, including sushi, small bites, favorite dishes from the California Grill menu, desserts and even some odes to our past. Guests ages 21 and over can also enjoy such libations from the complimentary bar as California wine, beers and cordials.
As showtime approaches, step out onto the intimate and private observation deck reserved just for Celebration at the Top Guests. Here, you can enjoy an incredible view of Disney Enchantment—the newest fireworks spectacular to light up the night sky over Magic Kingdom park. The lights will dim as music plays on the deck, so you’ll be immersed in the magic of the night.
After the fireworks, head back inside to enjoy a sweet spread of petit four desserts, cordials and coffee.
Pricing
Celebration at the Top: 50th Flavors & Fireworks at Disney’s Contemporary Resort is $129 per person, plus tax and gratuity.

$129 and includes actual good food and booze?

This is the first one of these that I could actually get my money's worth.

 

[LoonyMouse]

Any word on if part of California Grill will also be open for "regular" dining, or is the entire restaurant reserved for the special dining package only?

This is a separate fireworks viewing event which was also offered pre-pandemic. The Sonoma room at CG is used for this.
California Grill will be open for regular dining with a rumored prix fixe menu.

Thanks, that's good to hear!

 

[DznyGrlSD]

Compared to the $99 for the Tomorrowland Terrace desert party - this is a much better value

No. Please don’t ruin and dumb the place down by doing this.

Starting October the 50th? If you say so.

 

[TrainsOfDisney]

Lol! After all the people saying Disney didn’t want people going to the California Grill just to have dessert and watch the fireworks Disney announces a package for exactly that (plus appetizers and drinks).

Except this is $129 per person instead of someone ordering a $12 dessert and a water

It’s adult beverages, adult beverages, sushi, appetizers, fireworks, desserts, adult beverages, more adult beverages, oh and coffee if you want. So if you fully partake, it may have value to you.

Agreed.

Cheapest appetizer - $17
Cheapest sushi - $23
Cheapest dessert - $14
Coffee - $9
Cheapest glass of wine - $12

Already up to $73 and with this you can get seconds and thirds!

Especially since park tickets are not required.

Let’s add $20 for the watching the fireworks (think add’l money for a character meal. Probably under valued). You’re up to $93. Two more glasses of wine and another dessert, you’re already over $129.

Oh I think it’s worth it, I was making the point that this is different than the people who just go take up a table for hours and only order a dessert.

Is coffee really $9?

 

[Lilofan]

At $9 the cup of coffee better be french pressed, but I doubt it.

It is. CG serves coffee to the table still in the French press pot.
