Fantasmic

[hllb]

We have a qs meal to use anyway since we have the dining plan so we will probably still go to a normal qs restaurant.

Do you think we will be able to get a 4th FP for tsm, tot or rnrc? Our last FP at Epcot is at 12:15. We are taking our 9 yo niece and I’m not sure which she would want to ride the most.

When are you going? We did the dessert box, and the theater wasn’t completely full at showtime. This was on 1/31.

Unlikely.
But, if you CAN, it own't affect your ability to get a F! as a 5th FP if you do so after your 4tf FP.

Regardless of what happened on X night, don't count on that happening on Y night.

Even within the same week, different nights can find a different number of guests at any given evening show.

Arriving earlier will cover the more difficult of seating situations.

If seeing a particular performance of a WDW show is IMPORTANT to you,
arriving far too early will beat arriving one minute too late.

OTOH, if seeing a particular performance of a WDW show is only of passing interest,
you can certainly arrive closer to show time and you might be lucky.
Sometimes that works fine.
Other times, not so much.

Okay thanks we will just have to wing it when that day comes. We will definitely see fantasmic no matter what so I’ll probably just plan on showing up close to an hour early. I want a good seat and I’m willing to wait for one.

We’re going 2/28

We’re going 2/28

I think you’d be fine to either get a FP last minute (they were available quite late on our day) or just show up 30 to 40 minutes ahead of time. That should be a lower crowd day.

I’ll probably wait until that day and see how the crowds look.
