fantasmic 2nd show

[MeggP]

I see on the schedule that there will be 2nd shows for this at MGM on Memorial weekend. Anyone ever go to the 2nd show? I'm wondering if it is less crowded as it says in the UG--is it worth dragging the kids to it at 10:30 pm? What do you think -on Star Wars weekend will it be packed too?

Yes!!!! Last July was the first time we have ever been during summer crowded months and there were 2 Fantasmic shows each night. We could not believe the difference. We went to the second show at least 3 times during our trip! We will be doing the same thing this July as well!

Not as crowded as the 1st one. Depends on how old your kids are. If they are small, I would try the 1st one, if not enjoy more of the park and stay for the 2nd one. Enjoy the Star Wars Weekend. We did it last year and loved it.

If there are TWO Fantasmic! shows in one evening, the second one will have lower crowd level than the first one. You can arrive a bit later and still find a seat.

Be aware that the second show waiting area will LOOK like the show is too crowded.
Thats's because they HOLD the 2nd crowd outside the theater while the CMs CLEAN it after the first crowd has exited.

Then, they will let those waiting together in that big group IN... all at once, and there will be PLENTY of room.

(The theater holds 10,000 guests!)

thanks for the info. I was thinking of taking the family back to the cabin for dinner and then going out for the later show. Sounds like we'd have a good chance of getting a seat.
