Fantasmic desert buffet

[Tiiiigergirl]

How does one go about booking this. We attended once but it was comped for us. We are planning a quick trip this January with some friends and would love to surprise them with it! What is the current cost?

I called the dining reservations number and they transfered me to the correct location. You can call 30 days ahead for the balcony seating(make sure you do that first thing in the morning!!!!!) and the cost is $47 per person. I over heard the CM's saying the other reserved seating area on the ground (where, exactly, I am unsure) is $47 for adults and $37 for kids.

You pay for the tickets when you reserve with your credit card, then you must bring your credit card when you pick up the tickets at guest services.

Great! Thanks for the info.

Could you post the phone number to 'call for dining reservations please?

 

[two-foxes]

It is 714-781-DINE. Just tell them you want to make the Balcony reservations for Fantasmic. They transferred me right to them.

 

[kazzie]

Thanks,

Do you have the 'numbers for DINE please,I can't do this from the UK!

 

[two-foxes]

Ah, ha! Now I get it! It is 714-781-3463. That should help you out more

We were there the last week of August and we sat in reserved seating. We thought it was the balcony but it was priority seating. The tickets were 47 for adults and 37 for children.

There were a whole bunch of seats sectioned off and they seat you according to when you check in.

So if you want the balcony seating make sure you are clear. I thought we had balcony seats but had priority seats and were definitely NOT disappointed.

I just wish I had been more clear so that I knew where it was exactly that we were sitting.

Have fun.

Can you tell me the hours, and what is included??? We love Fantasmic, and this is something I haven't heard of before!! I will call tomorrow, but would love some additional info now if possible! More time to plan!!
Thanks!!!

They have reservations available for each show, so when we went, we had the choice of the 9:00 or 10:30. The times will change with the season.

The balcony seating included a dessert buffet and non-alcoholic drinks, included mint juleps. The desserts were cheesecake, a chocolate/cherry cake, mickey waffles with warm chocolate sauce, coconut macaroons, some other smaller treats, cheese and crackers and fruit skewers. It was pretty darn nice.

I cannot stress enough to call early on your 30 days ahead. I thought I called early enough, but we ended up kind of squashed in the corner....still good seats, but if I would have called just a bit earlier!!

It sounds like so much fun! Thanks for the info!
Have a great night!!

I just called this morning to get reservations for Fantasmic on October 18th. If you call the 714-781-3463 number, they will transfer you to the real number. To save time just call 714-781-4400 for Fantasmic dessert tickets.

I specifically asked for balcony seating and supposedly got it. She said there were 21 seats and there were 10 left, so I guess I'm in the back row, but I'm happy. I reserved the 9:00 show so that we can stay and watch the fireworks. How is the view from the 2nd row? Anyone experienced that yet, and can tell me?

Also, I know the regular PS for viewing Fantasmic on the grass gets a keepsake of some sort. Does that hold true for the balcony guests as well?

I'm looking forward to my trip in October.
Enjoy life and great vacations!

Can you call 30 days in advance or 60 days in advance? I've seen posts that say it's only 30 days and another that says 60 days.

Thanks!!

Califgirl- no keepsakes were given to us on 08/28, unless you count the 3 lbs I got to keep from eating so much

repeterson- I called over a month before our trip to double check...it is 30 days out. But, I would call to re-verify for yourself if you are anything like me. I like to hear things from the horses mouth!

We got ressies for Fri, Oct 17. My daughter called the direct #(714)781-4400 at 7:55 pacific time. Her call was answered at 7:58 and we were told we had first row seats. Hopefully this will hold true! You have to call exactly 30 days out to get these. Can't wait- it sounds great.

 

[mom_rules]

My understanding is you get a keepsake box with your dessert in it on the ground seating but nothing in the Balcony (buffet style).

Also I don't think there are fireworks in October.

One last question--we always go to Disneyland for our spring break the last week of March. Last year the lagoon was drained for maintenance.

The Disneyland website doesn't list the Fantasmic schedule for March 2004 (yet). I was wondering, does anyone know if this is the usual time for maintenance for Frontierland attractions? If it is, we're never going to get to see Fantasmic!!!!
