Nemo at AK

We're going mid-May, and I wondered how far in advance you need to get in line for the Nemo show at Animal Kingdom - I've heard 45 minutes. Is that really necessary, or only if you want front row seats?

[Coach Goofy]

that was about right for us when we went last. We lined up around 35 minutes before the start, and we were deep in the line. We still got decent seats though. The auditorium is set up pretty well.

We went 45 min in advance in September and didn't get in and then went 30 min in advance at the end of May and we were towards the front bottom section. The line hadn't started to move yet and we where all the way down in dinoland. So I guess there's no way to know.
If you really need to get into that show go 45min ahead of time. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but they start letting in about 20 min or so before the show starts so you will not be outside waiting the entire time.

I got there about 45 before too. I think you can get it closer to time, but you may be way up in the back.

It depends on which show you are trying to see. The first show of the day is not as hard to get into. But the last two - yeah, you need to be at least 45 minutes early.

Well, I'm glad I asked, I thought 45 minutes might have been an overstatement, but it seems not!

We went to the last show of the day last week and were in our seats 25-30 minutes before the start of the show. We were about 1/2 way back in the center sections. I think they filled the center sections first and then started on the side ones from front to back...
I love this show!

Definitely 45 for the last 2 shows of the day, if you want a decent seat
