Fantasmic during EMH?

[Fla Gator]

Has anyone done Fantasmic during EMH at MGM? I'm wondering how crowded it will be considering it's the second show of the night (at 10:30, the first is at 9 pm during regular park hours) and it's during EMH so only the resort crowd will be there. The night I'm looking at is May 22 (which is also a Star Wars Weekend). We'll actually be at EPCOT that day and are considering hopping to MGM for EMH to see Fantasmic and ride ToT and RnR, then, returning to MGM the next day (after sleeping in) to do the other rides.

First, it's good that you're opting for show #2. It will still be crowded at Fantasmic but not as much as the first showing.

Thanks Matt! I've added your website to my favorites list! My other option is to do Fantasmic the next day. Then there will be only one Fantasmic showing, but the Star Wars weekend will be over and it won't be an EMH night. I will be taking 5 kids, one of them a 2YO, so I'm hoping not to stand in line for more than 30 minutes before they begin seating everyone. I guess I can go check out the line 30 minutes ahead of seating time at the late showing on Sunday and if it is incredibly long already then try back again Monday night.

Thanks, I'm flattered.

If you can, it will probably be easier to get into the next day's showing of Fantasmic but with the second showing, I wouldn't worry too much about it being full. You will need to arrive for either signifigantly early.
