Fantasmic Planning Thread!

Fantasmic returnws to Disneyland May 24, 2024 after being on hiatus! New show elements debuted including the return of the Peter Pan Segment!

Check the daily calendar for show times! Often during the the fall and winter Fantasmic only shows on the weekends.

How can I see Fantasmic??


Disney has announced there will not be a virtual que. Standby is available and no one is allowed to line up or begin to reserve viewing spots longer than 2 hours before the show.

Dinning Packages
find info here: https://disneyland.disney.go.com/dining/disneyland/fantasmic-dinner-packages/

All packages are booked through the Fantasmic dinning page reservations. It is unknown if there will be walk up availability.

Important to note that the Riverbelle premium package provided seating during the show, but the view may not be the best.

The other dinning packages, including the river belle standard, include a voucher to a reserved viewing area.

As of January 2025 the Blue Bayou package has been discontinued and was replaced with the Cafe Orleans package.

Do i dare try that opening night. (No I will not be.. I doubt they would honor it any other night either, not sure the dude knew what he was talking about..)

Why not try? The worst they could say is 'no' but I would still bring voucher and nicely explain what you were told. Fantasmic is so popular I think every night will be busy, it won't make a difference if it's opening day or not.

I'm not 100% sure about the dining package questions, other's may offer tips about that.

Look forward to show returning!!

If you don't mind the price, dining package is a no brainer for this night in particular.

I'm so excited Fantasmic is coming back! I wonder what it will be like. I do like how relaxed ROA area is in the evening without it, though.

You might as well ask about your voucher. Maybe they'll honor it. I think they must have the dining packages for opening night, otherwise it will be like the good old days when people just camped out for hours waiting for Fantasmic to start. I didn't mind that at all, but I think Disney does.

I'll probably ask about it but maybe not for opening night lol!

They offered dining packages opening weekend when Fantasmic came back after the pandemic.

I lucked out and I had booked a May trip before Fantasmic's return was announced. The 24th is the last day I was planning on being in the parks. So, opening night it is. Even traveling solo, I'm seriously looking at a dining package.

 

[katyringo]

Well hubby came through for Christmas! I guess I'm ready for the show!

So dinning plans did come back right away when it returned after Covid? Why did I think they didn't? Maybe it's because fastpass never returned for it..

Resurrecting the thread. In theory dinning reservations for Fantasmic packages should open for opening night on March 26.......

 

[LKing]

Since HMH won't be open yet, I assume Pirates will still be Genie +. I wonder what they are going to do with the Pirates standby line when Fantasmic starts.

T-minus 6 days until in theory dinning packages should open...

I hope Disney announces things before they go on Sale

 

[katyringo]

Will the reservations drop in the morning?!?

Yep!!

 

[SgtTibbs]

Humm, Nope. At least not for me. I was on at 6:00:00am and never saw a thing open up for Fantasmic.
A few for Blue Bayou and Trader Sams but zippy for Fantasmic.

 

[katyringo]

nothing for Fantasmic opened for me either. I did book a river belle brunch for opening time- the website still states that the blue bayou and hungry bear you book ahead of time, but at riverbelle you request from your server..

I guess time will tell if we missed it, if the dinner service is not up yet or Disney is using opening day for a VIP type thing.

soooooo nothing yet?
