Is a BOG walk in possible?

[DisneyDreamer08]

Hi all, we will be in Disney the first week in December. We are not planning on eating at BOG, it's just not a top priority for us. If time allows however, I would like to see the inside. I understand this can be done in the morning however, I don't really want to waste prime touring time. I've been trying to get a FP for like 2:15ish but haven't had any luck yet. Is it possible to walk in around that time and just get dessert?

Highly doubtful. BOG keeps changing policy over having a standby line versus fastpass in advance and a day-of return time ticket. If you want to see the inside, even to just get dessert, you should get a fastpass. You won't be able to get an advance fastpass until 27 days (or less) from the day you want to visit.

You can do a quick peek at the inside around 10 am. However, you can only see the ballroom, as you are not allowed to wander around inside.

Ok thanks. We are 26 days out but I haven't been able to get a FP yet. Like I said we really just want to see the inside, and maybe get dessert. I will keep trying for a FP!

I just thought of something, is it 27 days out from the actual day you want? Or from the start of your trip?

From the day you want to eat there. Today you could book for November 30, tomorrow December 1 and so on.

Ah that explains. Thank you.

Really really doubt it but we get last minute emails every single time we step foot in MK saying congratulations you've been selected for FP+ for BOG between (a few hour time window) so check your email! lol

We did a walk in for dinner at BOG last June. Walked up at around 4:45 PM with a party of five - and we were seated at 5:15 PM.

It never hurts to ask.

I walked up to the podium and said "I know that this is a really long shot, but what are the chances that you have any openings". They said "is your entire party here now?" - "Yep". They said "You all have to wait on the bridge and be ready to go when we call you. It will be 20 to 30 minutes" -Perfect!

Good to know thanks! I am going to try tomorrow for the day in December I'm hoping for. Does the website refresh at midnight or 6am?

I have been able to walk up and get in on three separate occasions now -- always near the beginning of the dinner seating...they open at 4, so thats a great time to walkup and get a seating. They tell you 30-45 minutes, though in each instance I've been seated in under 15 minutes.

There is generally a chair open at the Pope's table.

Anything is possible if you dream it.

Last year we just wanted to get in to see as my son's friend is obsessed with the Beast so we showed up half hour before it opened and waited. We got in twice that way. Dinner wasn't a big deal to my family we just wanted to make sure our friend go to see it. It was a lot of fun and glad we got to see it.
