Can you eat in the seats while you wait like at Fantasmic? Are there hotdog or other venders nearby? Is the 1pm show in full sun? I'm a bit concerned its a long time to be sitting in full sun during the heat of the day. Thanks.
 
I do not know if there are vendors nearby, but it is a very "high school football game" atmosphere since it is huge bleachers. I don't think anyone would say anythign if you carried some food up there with you (not like trays aof food, though). The bleachers are covered, but the sun can still get on the bottom seats. I went to the 6pm something show so it was perfect. I recommend sitting high in the bleachers because the view is better. A lot goes on all over the place so you need to be able to see the whole area well. The only bad thing is that getting out when the show is done takes forever. We just sat down and waitied for the majority of the people to waddle down the bleachers. It's a big old cluster fudge, thats for sure.

The show is WELL worth it though. I LOVED it! :moped:
 
You can eat in the seats, although the nearest vendor of food is Studio Catering Co (there is no vendor of food inside the stadium). Regarding the show on Sunday, just show up 20-30 minutes early and you'll be fine. The stadium is second largest on property so you should be ok to go.
 

Yesterday we arrived 10 minutes before show time. The line was all the way out to the street where the "singing in the rain" umbrella is. We figured we wouldn't get in, so we walked away.
 
Yes we got some food at Catering company and some beers and drinks and just took them right into the stadium with us and nothing was ever said and there are no signs saying different. Trust me I looked.
 
Just remember that if you sit on the bottom rows you may get a little 'warmish' at the end.:)

Food is no problem but like others have said, there is nothing in the stadium. The upper seats are good, except that the roof supports can block your view of small portions of the set.

Point well taken about the lower seats and the "warmish feeling" :)

Get a Fastpass for the show !!!! It does not count against your other Fastpasses and when I was there last Sunday, they were turning away standby guests.

Gosh Darn It! I didn't know that it didn't count against your other FP's. We were there last week and used FP. Loved the show!! But I naively assumed that we needed to wait for other FP's--oh, it really didn't matter, but it is good to know for the future--thanks!

I understand the show is only 3 times per day. Does anyone know those times?


1PM, 3:55, 6:40

As of right now but I am sure when it gets dark earlier these times will change
 
The show goes by way faster than the wait! We had a fast pass and got there when it said and we went in first with good seats - but a long wait while the other people came in. Be sure and get something to drink before you go in - we were parched because we were out of water and didn't get anything before thinking there would be vendors inside.
 
If you get Fast Pass for this show make sure you show up at the time of your fast pass - if you show up after your fast pass time they will not let you use the fast pass entrance you will have to go through the regular line.

We were there for the 1:00 show. Although we were still in the shade, it did feel very warm. I was glad we had water with us. The man sitting next to me was commenting on how they should at least have vendors selling water while we were waiting for the show to begin.
