Fantasmic! Dining at DL?

[KayDox]

I was wondering if we could purchase Fantasmic Dining package for DL?
I searched online and all I could find was WDW info.
Is it only offered there?

Thank you in advance,
Kay

Sort of. It is a dessert package. See www.wdwinfo.com/disneyland-california/disneyland-fantasmic.htm

If you go early enough there are many tables close to the water with pretty good views of the show.

Thank you HydroGuy and skoocher for the info.

We will have 5yr old and 3yr old with us so I was wondering if getting a table is worth the money.

But, WOW.
That's a lot of money for dessert & 20min show!

I think we are going to try to go to the area a bit early.

Thanks again!
Kay

Not sure what Skoocher is referring to, there are no tables. There are chairs and you get a dessert box.

Here is a thread that was posted some time ago, with information on what's included. There are lots of opinions on whether or not it was worth it. Most of the people who have done it have considered it well worth it, us included.

There are pictures on this thread, showing you exactly where it takes place, and pictures and descriptions of the dessert box you get.

Hope that helps!

I would pay the money again I loved the view and the fact people were not pushing us and not waiting around for hrs on end.

Thanks avalon (fellow Washingtonian!) for the link!
It helped me a lot to make up my mind.

And thanks bluegrizzlies too!

I think we will try to look for a good spot to watch the show because:

1) My husband and I are not big sweets eaters, and my kids are 3 and 5 (too much sweets before bed!)
2) Could not justify the cost for a free 20min show
3) We are going there on Thursday and Friday (and possibly Sat too), so we will probably try the Thursday show, hoping the crowd is small.
4) The show might scare our kids

Thanks again!!
This (DIS... ha!) is such an informative msg board!!

I am sure I will come back with more Q's!

Don't know about the one down at the water. We were lucky to do one of the last Fantasmic! desserts up on the balcony of the now Dream Suite. What a great time. And yummy desserts and fruit too.
IMO your kids may be too young to appreciate it for what it costs.

I would think that Skoocher is talking about sitting at Cafe Orleans or River Belle Terrace during the show.

We've done the dessert seating and felt it was worth it to us to do it once. I actually perfer the fireworks and Electric light parade to Fantasmic.

I did want to make sure you knew that depending on when you are going Fantasmic might not be showing on a Thurs. It shows nightly around Christmas, Spring Break time, and all of Summer. At other times it only shows on weekend nights. Also it is dark right now for refurbishment.
