Fantasmic! Dinner Package

[eagles1281]

Is this really worth it? I have never seen this show, the show starts at 8:30pm, i read that I would have to show up at least 1/2 hour prior to show...(8pm) so what time should I set for the dinner, 6:30?
Is this good to do for just the two of us(25 & 22)?
Any other info, please.

The show is definitely worth seeing. If you are going during peak season, the dinner package guarantees you a seat. You might have to arrive up to 2 hours early otherwise. If going during off season, with two adults, I would eat wherever you want and show up about 45 minutes early for the show.

If you do book a package, make a reservation at least 2 hours before show time. You are supposed to go to the reserved seating area 30 minutes before show time even with the dinner package and you need an hour to 1-1/2 hours for dining.

Depending on where you want to eat may also factor in on how long you need to eat. I think it takes longer to eat at Brown Derby then it does at Mama Melrose's, and longer to eat at Mama's then it does at H&V. For a 7:00 PM show, I have an ADR time of 4:00, (at Brown Derby,) and I plan to arrive at the show by 6:15ish.

Is it worth it? That depends on how vauable it is to you. For me, it is way worth it. I love the show, but being solo, don't want to sit with nothing to do for two hours. And I love Brown Derby, which I'd eat at anyway, but have the FDP booked for my next two trips, and plan on booking it again for my third.

We were there for a long trip the first time. We tried to see Fantasmic w/o the package and went to the theatre 30 minutes before showtime to find it already at capacity. So we booked the package for later in the trip. If youve got the days, you could try it this way.

We are going in Dec and got a Fantasmic reservation for H&V. We decided to eat at 3:40 and have an early dinner. This way we can avoid the popular dinner hour and still have time to see some of the park before going over to the show.

I know when I called, it took me several days to get a reservation because they booked so quick.
