Can anyone verify if the new stunt show at MGM is just in the afternoons? Looking at the times for this week, they are only doing three shows - all three in the afternoon. Have they done any in the mornings?
Its a huge theater, so I think they are making sure to fill it up. It was just 3 shows when we were there. Exact times I am not 100% sure of, but it was like 1, 3:30 and then 6:55.
Its worth walking back for a fast pass early in the day!
AFAIK the show times have been fairly consistent since it opened a month ago. They may vary by 15 or 20 minutes, but they have been pretty close to what lllovell said.
Oh - we'll definitely do FP, but since there are only 4 things we want to do at MGM (this being one of them), we were hoping to be out of there by lunch time - we're going on EMH day. We really want to be able to spend a half a day lounging by the pool.
I'm afraid to go in the afternoon though because of FP's being gone for the rides we want to do.
If we do the first show, how long does it typically last?
Only 3 shows a day while we were there, first at 1 pm. I'm wondering if it has to do with the position of the sun. By 1 pm all the seats are in shade, any earlier and I think the sun would be in the audience's eyes. Another tip - first time we saw the show we got a fastpass for the 3:55 show. We happened to be doing The Backlot Tour during the 1 pm show, and you get to see the action backstage a couple of times during the tour - that was really cool!
Don't worry too much about not being able to get a seat, with 5000 seats and 3 shows, I'd be very surprised if you couldn't make it in. I'd grab a FP whenever you make your way to Muppets or Mickey Ave as it's not a very far walk from there.
