Doing both JBJB and Fantasmic

[Pdollar88]

Hi all! I've never seen Jingle Bell Jingle Bam and would like to give it a try. Would I have time to get over to Fantasmic and (hopefully) get a seat?

I'm hoping to be there on Nov. 30, with an 8:00 JBJB showtime and 8:30 Fantasmic.

There is a chance that you could be in the F! line by 8:20pm.

The problem is, you just don't know how backed up with guests
that line will be.

I'd put your odds of seeing F! at 65%.

I’m planning the same thing but I have a fantasmic dinner package. Will I be locked out if I show up close to show time?

If you arrive within 15 minutes, or so, of F! start-time, if F! is a busy show that night, there is a chance that
even with a Dining Pkg. you can be locked out (as they give the unused Dining Pkg. seats to any waiting guest
as the show-time nears.)

Remember (and this is very important,) once a guest reaches the F! ENTRANCE GATES (near ToT/R'n'RC) the guest still has a very long path to walk to get to the actual F! theater.
On a busy night, that path can be clogged with guests who are trying to get into F!

I was just about to post this same exact question. I'' be there in Dec with a 630 JBJB and a 7:00 F, with a dining package! Thank you, I'll be planning a second HS evening!

FYI, I was able to do both JBJB at 8pm and Fantasmic at 8:30 this past Monday (NOV 27). Our spot for Fantsmic was terrible (on the edge) but we got there on time and were seated so that's something.

Yes-MANY Guests do it-but,of course,you will have the worst seats,but we still thought it was worth it to see both shows last week when we were there.

I didn't want to risk it so I added a 2nd day to Hollywood studios. Just another way Disney got more money out of me because I think I would of been able to do everything I wanted in DHS in one day.
