thanks, Itinkso. I'm just a bit confused: Kenny says there's only one characterpalooza, but there's also only one F! performance. would Kenny specify if there was more than one?

I asked Kenny in the comments for May 2015 that same question. Hopefully he can provide some clarity...

Does he have it listed as beginning between 4:30-5:00?

Yes. I'm looking at May 7th, and characterpalooza is listed as starting at 4:35.

Yes. I'm looking at May 7th, and characterpalooza is listed as starting at 4:35.

That's the earliest set possible for that specific day. @kennythepirate will probably be updating or if you leave a message for him, he will double check his scheduling.

That 4:35 time is correct and is always dependent upon weather conditions.

okay, thanks Itinkso. I really appreciate your help!

When there are two Fants scheduled, there is only 1 Palooza.

If there is only 1 Fant scheduled, there will be 3 Paloozas.

Help. I'm confused by Kenny The Pirates info and what is said here. If I am looking at April 22nd, there is only one Fantasmic at 8:30. So will there be 3 sets? And, what are the times? How does 4.5 hr formula work? Kenny the Pirate says only 2 sets -- 4:40 and 5:40 -- for April 22nd.

Kenny's checking on the Fantasmic schedules and when Fantasmic returns to one show per night, he will be confirming the times. So, it's best to check his Crowd Calendar closer to your date.

The best thing to do is calculate Fant @ 8:30 - 4.5 hours and the first Palooza set will be at 4:00 - plan to wait a bit because they have to walk from the Fantasmic backstage area.

Thank you Itinkso. When you say "they have to walk from the Fantasmic backstage area", who are you referring to? The Characters? If so, does this mean those characters are later in Fantasmic or this is just their entry point?

Yes, the characters. They are the Fantasmic performers and that's why Palooza is dependent upon the Fant schedule - not just the show times but also how the performers are scheduled.

That's why Palooza is an unscheduled event and that's what makes it special - you get to interact with show caliber CMs.

we did this last week and met the Genie, Snow White, Aladdin and Jasmine, Tiana, Evil Queen, Pocahontas....it was AWESOME!

I'm on the same boat as you are with the confusion level. I'm looking at 5/19 and same thing, shows 1 show at 4:35, but there's only 1 F! show that day at 9:00. I figure I'll just keep an eye on Kenny's site closer to our travel dates?

Kenny will be updating as soon as he knows and can confirm the additional Palooza times. 4:35 is correct for the first Palooza.
