If you’ve been planning to sip your way through Sangria University at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort, you’ll need to adjust your plans. As of today—December 13, 2025—the beloved experience has moved to a brand new location, and it’s a major upgrade.
According to Mickey Visit’s December 2025 Disney World changes roundup, Sangria University has relocated from Three Bridges Bar and Grill to Toledo – Tapas, Steak & Seafood inside the resort’s signature Gran Destino Tower. The move places the popular sangria-tasting experience in a much more upscale setting that better matches the premium nature of the offering.
What Is Sangria University?
For those unfamiliar, Sangria University is an interactive tasting experience where guests sample different sangria varieties while learning about the drink’s history, ingredients, and preparation methods. It’s been a hit with adults visiting Walt Disney World who want something beyond the typical theme park beverages.
The experience has been a standout offering at Coronado Springs, which has Spanish and Mexican-inspired theming throughout the resort. It’s one of those hidden gems that Disney fans love to recommend to first-timers looking for unique experiences beyond the parks.
Why the Move Makes Sense
Three Bridges Bar and Grill—the previous home of Sangria University—is a casual, open-air waterfront lounge with a laid-back vibe. It’s perfect for grabbing drinks and small plates while enjoying views of Lago Dorado.
Toledo, on the other hand, is Coronado Springs’ signature rooftop restaurant. It’s an upscale Spanish-inspired steakhouse with panoramic views, sophisticated decor, and a menu featuring tapas, seafood, and premium cuts of meat. The restaurant sits atop Gran Destino Tower and offers one of the most elegant dining atmospheres at any Disney World resort.
Moving Sangria University to Toledo elevates the entire experience. Instead of a casual bar setting, guests now enjoy their sangria education in a refined, rooftop environment that feels more aligned with the “university” concept. The Spanish theming at Toledo also provides better cultural context for a sangria-focused experience.
What This Means for Guests
The relocation started today, so if you have a Sangria University reservation in the coming weeks, double-check your confirmation details to ensure you’re headed to the right location. Instead of meeting at Three Bridges near the lagoon, you’ll now head to Gran Destino Tower and take the elevator up to Toledo.
We expect the experience itself to remain largely the same—multiple sangria tastings with education about each variety—but the upgraded atmosphere at Toledo could mean enhanced presentation or additional premium touches. The rooftop views alone will make the experience more memorable.
This is also good news for Toledo, which may see increased foot traffic from guests who discover the restaurant through Sangria University and decide to return for a full dinner later in their trip.
The Bigger Picture
This move reflects Disney’s ongoing efforts to enhance experiences at its resort hotels. Coronado Springs has seen significant investment in recent years, including the addition of Gran Destino Tower itself, and shifting Sangria University to the resort’s flagship restaurant shows Disney is thinking strategically about how to maximize its premium offerings.
For Disney World guests who love trying unique experiences beyond the theme parks, Sangria University at Toledo is now positioned as an even more special occasion. Whether you’re celebrating an anniversary, enjoying an adults-only trip, or just want to try something different during your vacation, this relocated experience offers a sophisticated option that few other Disney resorts can match.
If you’ve never tried Sangria University and you’re visiting Disney World soon, this might be the perfect time to book—especially now that it comes with rooftop views and an upscale Spanish restaurant setting.
