So will be trying to see Fantasmic with the kiddies on Sunday 6/20. We will be doing the 9pm show (there is also a 10:30pm show that night).

My question is what time would we likely need to get there to get a decent seat if we had a FP and also if we did not have a FP.

Thanks

I had a fastpass and entered about 20 minutes before the show when I went in July. I was seated at the far end of the last section.

Don't see any reason for a FP for any of the nighttime shows. At all.
We have just recently gotten very good seats without one.

I don't see a need or reason for FP on any of the shows, to be honest... It makes things a mess for Fantasmic, at least it did in Oct 2013... Maybe they got their act together by now??

Have you considered the Fantasmic Dinner Package instead?


I'll meet you at the Rainbow Bridge.

We found the FP helpful for Fantasmic!, you could show up very close to show time. You may not need one, but it saves lots of wait time. :mickey:

I also found that using the FP, or dinner package, was helpful. We didn't show up until 10 minutes before showtime!
