What time is Fantasmic on EMH nights?

[momof2disprincesses]

We have 1 day at the parks after our cruise - on Jan. 23. I see they added EMH nights at MGM. Does anyone know what time Fantasmic is on EMH nights and do you think they'd add a second show for EMH?

Hi,

You can find the times for Fantasmic up at the top of this page by clicking on "Park Hours" then click on "Parades and Fireworks" for January 2006 or whatever month you want.

You can also find information on Fantasmic times at www.mgmstudios.org.

Unfortunately the part of the question I was wondering about, too, is not answered on the site. Do they or do they not do a second performance of Fantasmic for evening EMH? I've done a search and can't seem to find a definitive answer. We'll be going in late April/early May and I'm wondering about the evening EMH on May 1st. Disney's site only lists one show at 8:30 but I thought I had heard on past trips that they have done a second performance. Just wondering if this was true or perhaps it is only done during busier times. We've been before when there are two performances, but they're schedule and during (or shortly after) park hours, so we're specifically wondering about EMH nights.

When there are 2 performamces, they are both announced (and take place before EMH begins that evening).

They don't do one "ONLY" for EMH guests.

EMH's are all about "ride attractions" and only specific ones at that.

I agree with Robo, the EMH do not include fireworks etc, at any of the parks.

I think they only do the second Fantasmic during peak times. When I was there last May, regular park closing and Fantasmic was at 9:00, then EMH was 9:00 to 12:00, no second Fantasmic.

No, Disney does NOT add a second Fantasmic! show (or Illuminations, or Magic Kingdom parade/fireworks) on EMH nights simply because it's an EMH night. Fantasmic! will be run at approximately park closing time on January 23.
There is often a second Fantasmic! during, as DebbieB stated, peak times - when the park is open to ALL Guests.

Thanks for the clarification, everyone. We've often been to EMH, but usually in the morning. We've often been when there are two Fantasmic shows, but we've also found they do that only at busier times of year. I knew they didn't do an extra Illuminatons or Wishes for EMH so figured as much for Fantasmic, but just wanted to make sure.
