Biergarten - what time does entertainment start for lunch?

[Meech Loves Mickey]

Hello!
What time does the lunch entertainment start at Biergarten in Epcot? I just made a ressie for 12:30 and I'm hoping we get to see the band. It's our whole reason for going there.

What time does the band start for lunch? Should I change my ressie?

Thanks!!

This issue came up for us on past trips and I believe they started at 1:15. We also made 12:30 reservations specifically so we would be there to see the band and it worked out each time. I'm sure schedules may change but for at least our last 2 visits that was the schedule.

12:50 PM.

1) There is entertainment at both lunch an dinner. However, the dinner "shows"
seem longer with more audience participation.
2) Great for adults AND THE KIDDIES.
3) Show Times are daily at 1:15, 2:15, 3:15, 4:45, 5:55, 7:00, 8:05pm.

Thanks!

Why do you think the current Times Guide lists 12:50 PM for the first show?

I'm showing wdwent.com as these times - 12:50, 1:40, 2:30, 3:20, 4:50, 5:50, 6:50, 7:50 & 8:50pm

OP - check the times next week as this could still be holiday times. But even with a 12:50 or a 1:15 start, your 12:30 advanced dining reservation might be too early. I'd try moving it to at least 12:45-1:00 depending on next week's schedule.

Thanks for these tips - I changed my husband's birthday lunch reservation from 12:15pm to 12:45pm to hit the band time....

And just to note - no matter what time the bands starts, no one will be hovering around making you feel like you have to leave so you can sit back and enjoy the band for as long as you want.
