Anyone know if WOC be shown nightly?

[Misskitty3]

I have read a few threads and articles about WOC. It sure sounds awesome. Just wondering if it will be shown nightly or just on weekends, like Fantasmic.

Has anyone heard anything?

No one really knows yet. Since it is a night show like Fantasmic, that means it cannot play until after dark. In peak summer daylight (June) that means 9PM or 8:30 at the very earliest. But DCA has been closing at 9PM and sometimes 10PM in recent years during peak times and earlier (6PM) for non-peak.

Many people guess the following:

1. Initially it will show nightly because of the demand - and probably twice nightly on weekends and peak season (summer)

2. They will need to extend DCA closing hours to accomodate two shows.

3. After some times has gone by (6 months, 12 months?) they will play it like Fantasmic - off-season on weekends and high season nightly.

Hydroguy - That makes sense.

Will be interesting to see how they handle the later hours of CA and how that effects DL.

I'm sorry, I'm sure this is a repeat question...when do they think it'll be opening?

There are even rumblings of a 3rd WOC show being added nightly at least initially to meet anticipated demand. At the very least, it will be showing nightly during peak seasons. This isn't Disney's Hollywood Studios and their one or two days a week showing of Fantasmic.

Seems like sometime May 1 to June 1.

Thanks...I arrive 5/2 so I'm a little nervous about the crowds if it opens earlier. Oh well.
