Fantasy Springs opens on June 6th, and we’re lucky enough to be in Tokyo right now checking it all out. We’ll be eating in Arendelle (and bringing you our FULL REVIEW) later this week! Disney has released some brand new photos of the area, so let’s check them out!
Fantasy Springs is Tokyo DisneySea’s newest port, and it includes lands themed to Peter Pan, Tangled, and, of course, the 2013 Disney film Frozen. Let’s head over to a Royal Banquet in Queen Elsa’s kingdom right now!
Royal Banquet of Aredelle restaurant
Stepping inside, you’ll see the lavish surroundings you would expect at a royal banquet. It’s like we were invited by Anna and Elsa themselves!
Royal Banquet of Arendelle in Tokyo DisneySea
This place is PALATIAL. We can’t get over the detail in the floors, the matching motif on the wood columns and chair backs, and THOSE SOARING CEILINGS! A second dining room has a cozier feel, with the stone fireplace, and a china hutch in the corner. No doubt there are generations of family heirlooms in this room.

And there’s a third area that transports you to the castle’s portrait gallery from the movie.
Royal Banquet of Arendelle at Tokyo DisneySea
Again with the inlaid floors, sconces, and other regal details that are blowing me away!
Royal Banquet of Arendelle
Guys, we’re gonna be pressed for time seeing everything in Fantasy Springs, but we might have to eat here three times because I want to sit in ALL of these rooms!
Yeah, if you’re thinking this restaurant is huge — it is. Royal Banquet of Arendelle seats 570 guests. Now this is a quick-service (fast food) restaurant (which is just CRAZY to think about grabbing your food at the counter in these regal surroundings, right?!). We’ll be getting to try the food here (and of course bringing you ALL the details later this week).
We’re most excited to see what’s served in Arendelle’s Royal Set. This meal has appetizers, and entree, and a dessert served in a basket.
Is that some sort of a pot pie?! And what has Olaf cooked up for dessert?! We do know you’ll be able to use Mobile Order at this restaurant.
OK, so that’s just a peek inside — we’ll be bringing you a full look at the food and drink here as soon as get to try it! Keep following us here at DFB as we explore everything Fantasy Springs has to offer. In the meantime, check out the NEW images from the Rapunzel’s Lantern Festival ride over in the Tangled land here.Yeah, we’ve only been dreaming of going to that Lantern Festival for a decade, and NOW WE CAN.
Fantasy Springs opens June 6th, 2024. Are you going?!

Hi from Tokyo DisneySea, where we’re getting a PREVIEW of the newest land opening soon: Fantasy Springs! Are you ready to battle pirates and see some really, really weird skin suits hanging from the ceiling? OK then — let’s go!
Peter Pan’s Never Land, Tokyo DisneySea Fantasy Springs
Tokyo DisneySea’s highly anticipated new land Fantasy Springs is a dream come true for fans of Tangled, Frozen, and Peter Pan Fans! Officially set to open on June 6th, there are new restaurants, new rides, new shops…and it’s all got the same attention to detail that Tokyo DisneySea is known for around the world! Truly EPIC.
Now, Disney has been very tight-lipped about one of the land’s new restaurants. You’ll find it in Peter Pan’s Never Land, and it’s a tribute to your favorite band of ruffians and mine — The Lost Boys! Welcome to Lookout Cookout!
Lookout Cookout, Tokyo DisneySea Fantasy Springs
We’re here in Fantasy Springs this week for a preview of the land, and we’ll get to head in to eat very soon (stay tuned for that full review!), but for now, we’ve just a few pics to share of what’s inside.
And what’s inside is…not what you’d expect!
Lookout Cookout, Tokyo DisneySea Fantasy Springs
Um…yeah, that’s a little terrifying, eh? Those are the Lost Boys’ animal skin suits, of course! But without the Lost Boys inside…and just kind of hanging there like that…they have a decidedly macabre vibe, right? You agree?
But don’t worry — even though it’s hard to look away, we’re gonna really try! How about this instead?
Lookout Cookout, Tokyo DisneySea Fantasy Springs
OK, that’s a little better, right? The Lost Boys cookin’ up some stew for you and me? Love it!
Now, when we check out the actual dining space, you’re going to see a serious island vibe! This feels very Swiss Family Robinson, right? With the teapots hanging from the ceiling? But what’s not very Swiss Family Robinson is that proudly displayed Jolly Roger! There be PIRATES in these parts!
Lookout Cookout, Tokyo DisneySea Fantasy Springs
Everything seems haphazard in here — in the way you’d expect a crew like the Lost Boys to collect, curate, and coagulate (ooh…kinda proud of that word series, not gonna lie) a bunch of found objects from the beach into a viable shelter! But I absolutely love the helter skelterness of the lines. Nothing is perpendicular or parallel here — it’s all just thrown together! And check out that rad totem pole!
Lookout Cookout, Tokyo DisneySea Fantasy Springs
I honestly don’t even know how these bookshelves are even still standing! But you love it, right? Like you almost wish you could live in ultimate freedom like they do…and never grow up?
Lookout Cookout, Tokyo DisneySea Fantasy Springs
I could probably sit in here for hours and keep finding new details and elements. This shell decor is so sweet. I can just picture the Lost Boys choosing each shell and starfish carefully for this display.
Lookout Cookout, Tokyo DisneySea Fantasy Springs
Now, we haven’t eaten here yet (SOON! LIKE ONLY HOURS AWAY!), but when you’re ready to grab some goodies, you’ll find things like the Pixie Dust Soda…

…and the Lost Kids Snack Box!

Alrighty — we are raring to go here in Fantasy Springs, and we can’t wait to take you with us every step of the way. So get some rest, pack a lunchbox, and put on your sunscreen, cause we’re OFF to NEVER LAND! (But seriously, don’t forget to follow us on social media, ’cause a lot of cool stuff will be posted there, too.)
If you wanna keep up to date on all the Fantasy Springs goodness, we’ve got a little ultimate guide here that we’ll keep updating with all our posts. Be sure to check it out here: Tokyo DisneySea Fantasy Springs.
