What exactly is Fantasmic at MGM

[tami82]

We will be doing MGM as our last park and noticed Fantasmic is in there. How much is it to get in and do i have to book a dinner at a certain restaurant? Is it hard to get in?

Fantasmic is the Studios nighttime show. There is no additional cost. You can book one of three different restaurants for the Fantasmic Package and get guaranteed seats for the show which are on the right side of the theater. If you do not get a package, you should line up AT LEAST 90 minutes prior to the show in order to get a seat. It is a spectacular show with many of the Disney characters and fireworks.

It does not cost anything to get in and you do not have to book a Fantasmic dinner either as long as you are willing to get there well ahead of time in order to get in. Generally that means getting to the entrance at a minimum of 90 minutes before show time depending on how many shows that week/night. If you do the dining package, your entrance card will tell you to be there 60 minutes before show time.

We have done Fantasmic several times, but have never done the dinner package. You will need to get there early to get a seat...at least 60-90 minutes ahead.

It's a don't miss show for me. I did the dinner package a couple of times, and I don't care for it. I'd rather just line up early than go to a restaurant that I don't particularly want to just to get a guaranteed seat.

I use the wait time as down time from the park. Good opportunity to rest after a long day in the parks! But, as others have said, you do need to get there early.

If you get there 60-90 mins ahead of time is there a big line to get in or are most people seated quickly.

It's a huge sea of people, but once they open up the ampitheater it moves really fast to get in. It is a great show.
