Spectro direction????

[Laurabearz]

Okay on Saturday November 8th Spectro is running twice... Anyone know which direction will it run first? And how long is it?

Thanks!

Always runs from Main Street up towards Castle then across to Frontierland and out across the railway tracks by Splash Mountain (we always watch from there)

I think it takes about 25 minutes altogether???

thanks

Just returned Nov. 1 and watched Spectro in Frontierland in front of the shootin arcade. There are benches in front of the arcade that you can move up to the rope. One time we put the bench on the square platform that is around the tree in the same location. Arrive about 30-45 min. prior to the show to grab these seats. You are allowed to do this as a CM helped move the bench for us. For less crowds see the second Specto show. And if you are hungry there are Turkey Legs near by and Peco Bills is just down a little way to the left. So grab some food and a nice comfortable seat and enjoy!

I don't think this is always the case. When we were there in the beginning of Dec. last year, we went to see Spectro on a Saturday, and the 1st parade ran from Frontierland to Main Street and the 2nd ran the opposite (Main St. to frontierland). I don't know if it has changed since then, but this is how it ran last December.

MamaKate.... that is what I thought too.... ran one way for the first and another for the second, but so far no one has questioned the answer.... except you

Can we get another opinion???

Because they do not want the crowds to follow the parade "UP" to the main entrance, Spectro is ALWAYS run from Main Street to Spalsh Mountain, even if they are doing 2 parades, they will swing it around back stage and start the second one at Main Street again. This keeps the crowds that are exiting at a bareable rate. The only time you will see a night time parade run from Splash Mountain to Main Street is if they are filming the parade... if they are filming they want the shot to be of the parade coming down Main Street with the castle behind it...That is the only reason that it would have been run that way...

Day parade Always runs from Splash Mountain to Main Street.

Night parade always runs from Main Street to Spalsh Mountain even when 2 parades are being offered
