http://allears.net/tp/ep/fw14/2014-...estival-eat-to-the-beat-concerts.htm#packages
This is new for 2014 and seems to be identical to the Candlelight Processional dining package offering. Which means that package guests will likely be allowed entry to the theater before the general public. Note that on the Regular and Deluxe dining plans it's 2 table service credits!
