**Official Frozen Sing-Along, Oaken's, Holiday Premium Package Tips, updated 1/5/15

I think I posted this on another thread last night. We went to the 7pm sing-along. It was filled to SRO. There were about 30 people, adults and children standing.

Lulu from Idol was a friend of Aria and she was amazing. Best historian yet. She had great chemistry with Erik. There was more improvisation than usual. The audience was really into the show, and they played off audience reaction. There timing and wit are impeccable. We sat in the very last row before the bleachers. Syrprisingly, I liked it better than first row, despite the heads in my way. Up front I can either focus on the historians or the screen. Back further I could take in both for fuller effects.

The purple area shows where the jumbo screens are located. You want to be somewhere that you can see both. Keep in mind where you stand early might be great, but any available space gets filled.

Last night we watched by 50's ptc the screen was very small from so far away but we could still see it for the most part. The fireworks were great from there. You can see all of them. We got there around 8:30. For Min and Bills picnic table we got there around 8:15.

Thank you! Love this thread and I just read your trip report and it's been awesome too! What time were the fireworks when you got there at 8:30? Our fireworks are at 8:45, so I'm guessing we need to be there at 7:30?

Are the fastpass return times for the frozen sing along prior to the show start time? I booked our fastpasses for September 5th and the app is showing that the show starts at 1:30. Our return time is 1:15-1:30. It has been reported on this thread that the show is at 1:40. Does anyone know for sure what time it starts?

Question about Oaken's-- I'm here at WDW right now, and we went to Oaken's and saw all the amazing Elsa dresses. I'm attempting to MAKE an Elsa dress for my niece for Halloween, however I'm kind f hoping it doesn't crash and burn. The dresses they have in Oaken's-- they are NOT the same as the dresses you'd buy at the Disney store-- is that a correct assumption? Because usually the parks costumes are a little nicer. If it is just the Disney store costume I'll skip going back to HS for it, but of it ISNT then id like to have it as a backup.

According to my daughter who works merchandise in MK, the dresses in HS are the same as the Disney store ones, the WDW dresses are only found in MK in either BBB or Sir MIckey's, mind you this was back at the beginning of the summer, and since I don't have any little ones haven't need to ask if this has changed. hope this helps

For the 7pm show last night, our return window was 6:25 to 6:50. I didn't notice a 15 minute return window in my fp+. I'll have to go check.

I didn't get to add another firework night to the tr. But we saw it again from min and bill. Sat at the table closest to the idol screen. We couldn't see squat once the people filled in in front of us. Could see the fireworks but not the idol screen at all.

Thanks so much!

Does anyone know how many of the premium packages they sold for each day?

I've heard 200 floated around, though I can't remember where!

 

[angelia denise]

Might be a dumb question, but we don't need a ticket to the Singalong if we have a fastpass+ scheduled, correct?

Right. FP+ would be your ticket.

We grabbed a table near the beginning of the Rebels autograph line. Is that where you meant? It was perfect. Though the screen was hard to make out at times. Close ups were good. Only draw back was they didn't turn down the atmosphere music. And the firework music wasn't piped in. Is that usual?

As you exit Prime Time we walked down and grab that first table...I haven't watched the Frozen fireworks from there but the SWW fireworks I remember hearing the music perfectly.

We heard the SWW music perfectly, too, from that area. The night I was standing behind yulilin's area and didn't know it!!

We discussed that too. Because we watched may the 4th fireworks from there with music piped in. But no mudic last night from the fireworks. I had to work hard at blocking out the background music.

It's probably one of the things they forgot to factor in when they rushed this together.

So, lovethattink, is closer to Min and Bill's your favorite area for fireworks?

Maybe

I don't think I've figured out a favorite spot for these fireworks. Min and Bill's is definitely my favorite spot to watch the Icemen. And dh and I still think the one band member resembles Mitchell Musso, though my son's say no way.


Last night we were at Yullinin's table. That was very nice. Would be a great spot for a tripod. But sure missed the sound.

Im sure this has been asked before, but how long is the frozen firework show

 

[lovethattink]

About 15 minutes.

What's the actual estimated time fireworks go off? What is the last possible dinner reservation can I get and still get a spot to see everything ?
