Fantasmic!


Could you please give me your opinion on the FAntasmic show? My hsband and I were thinking on going and seeing it but I haven't been to DW in a long time and there are so many new things. Thanks for you help.

I Have Seen The One Here at Disneyland and this one is A Great Show. Theres nothing else like it in the world! I Would Recommend you do see it while at Disney MGM Studios. Also you need to get there Early to get a good seat!

OMG. It's a great show. It is highly worth seeing. I would get there 1 to 2hrs before the show starts. It fills up fast. It's worth the wait. Go for it.

I Have Also Heard That The Fantasmic at Walt Disney World Is not like Disneyland's and that Disneyland's is better.

Fantasmic is awesome and you should see it if you have the chance but take something with you to read and get there early( approx one hour to one and one half hours ) because they fill up fast . I totally recommend it if you have never seen it. i have seen it every time I have gone and it never has gotten boring or old!!

A definite must see. I'd say it's the best show at WDW by far. It's really something you have to see to believe I only recently saw it about a month and a half ago and I was amazed. What everyone says about the wait is true, get there an hour and 15 minutes early to get a good place to sit. They usually have two shows but if you're done with the park go to the first one and find something to preoccupy yourself. Either bring something to look at or something because if you don't there's not much in the way of entertainment in the Beverly Hills Amphitheatre except Disney music in the background which is fun to sing along to until you hear the same song twice. It really is worth seeing and was one of the highlights of my trip.

Is there a restaurant that you can sit and eat and watch the show?

Unfortunately no. However they have a deal where you get a "preferred" seat and a meal at one of the restaurants for a certain price. Don't do it simply because you're going to get a better seat for Fantasmic because the seats they have reserved are all the way on the far side of the theater and the seats are better if you just get there early. Also in the stadium they have a bunch of concession stands with just about everything you could imagine, and if you want ice cream before you go in there's a stand across the way that has excellent ice cream. If you haven't eaten the stands they have at the Hollywood Hills Amphitheatre have a good amount of choices of about what you'd expect with hot dogs and sandwiches and such. To be honest I wouldn't go with the meal and reserved seating deal unless you just want a seat and don't want to get to the theatre too early, although that section filled about 30 minutes before the show too.

If you DO want to do the dinner package deal, the restaurants are Mama Melroses, Hollywood Brown Derby, and Hollywood &Vine. I prefer Brown Derby, if you have enough money. The show is a one-in-a-lifetime experience.You will love it.I have seen it about 5 times, and it still never fails to amaze me!Get there about 2 hours before showtime(about 3 if you see the 10 o'clock, because I was walking out from the 9 o' clock show and the line for the 10 o' clock streched all the way to the entrance).When you arrive see if you can get the Mickey section because of it's central location.The Mickey Section is the best section in the area!
