Is the Fantasmic Dinner Package Needed?

[Everyyeardisney]

We are planning on doing Fantasmic Sunday Jan 30. Should we do the dinner package? If we don't do the dinner package how long will the wait be to get into Fantasmic? We have a 4 years old and a 1 1/2 year old. Thanks for your help>

With little ones, I always recommend the Fantasmic dinner package. If you don't get it, to secure seats, you usually need to be in line at the theatre about 2 hours before. Then they eventually let you in, and you have to wait inside for the show to start. With the Fantasmic package, you saunter in about 30 minutes before showtime and get a pretty good seat. the seats are all the way to the right, but do offer a fine view. My kids (6 and 3) would never have lasted the two hour wait, they barely made it the 40 minutes we waited with the package. When we arrived the theater was completely packed with the exception of the Fantasmic Package seating area. I can't imagine how long some people ended up waiting, but I wasn't going to be one of them!

We too, are going to Disney 1/30-2/4 and wondered if we should wait until we get there to see 'weather-wise' which might be the best night to do Fantasmic. Last year at this time, we had no problems getting in to restaurants. Hopefully, it will be a wonderful, warm week!
