Dinner package seats are now in the middle rather than the sides. If not, Fast Pass it but whatever happens, don't miss it! You also may get a little damp depending on wind direction!

Ailie Chang

Use a fast pass on this one. Well worth it to not stand in that long line . You'll end up getting a great seat in the middle. The water screen is impressive! Really brings back your childhood memories.

Jake Smith

Make sure you look for Frollo, the villain from "The Hunchback of Notre Dame." This is perhaps the only remaining reference to "Hunchback" left in the Disney parks .

AlAnoud A AlGhunaim

Thrilling, it'll turn on all your sensations! Phenomenal! Come early for good seats, and stay away from front seats if you don't wanna be splashed with water✨

Susanne Uhlig

BEST show at Disney. It makes me cry every time and is the reason why I wanted to work for Disney in the firsr place. Make sure to come at least 3p mins early to get good seats

M Aldoss ♏

My favorite show in Disney, I watched it 6 times, and i still enjoy watching it. They add more more colorful bright lights which made more joyful to watch ????

Goni Fox

The first show has a pre-show to get the crowd pumped up and excited. It's pretty fun. The downside is that it gets really crowded . I recommend the second show . Fewer crowds, more seats & more magic.

Scott Boone

A lot more low key than when it was in California in terms of number of fireworks , but still a good night time show . Make sure to get in line since it's in a limited seating area.

Mitty Chang

Definitely get a fastpass for this, and arrive at least 10 minutes before tour fastpass time slot begins, to secure awesome seats. Or just buy a dinner package ahead of time; get better seats that way

Sean Leb

One of the best live shows on property. See a large array of Disney characters in this show about Mickey 's imagination. Watch as he faces off with dragon Maleficent, snake Jafar, and the Evil Queen.

Dave G

Just the two of you? Go ahead and walk up & down the aisles in the better viewing areas. You will find some selfish people who are taking up WAY more space than they need. Just ask if the spot is free

Benjamin Bobier

If you don't mind spending some money for a meal or have a Disney Dining package , call Disney Dining and get the Fantasmic/Dinner package . Totally worth it. You get reserved seating at the show!

Bethanne Babbs

Favorite night time show at Disney! Make sure to get seated at least an hour in advance. Usually shows two times a night, and the later time is much less crowded .

Shanna Bowman~Glass

Do the Fantasmic Dinner Package at The Brown Derby! You Can Order whatever you want, you get a 3 course meal, alcoholic drinks are extra but worth it! The priority seating for Fantasmic is awesome!

Jason Laramee

Amazing live show to close out a day Studios! Pyrotechnics, water, and laser effects, and live performers bring one of Mickey 's incredible dreams to life!

Rose Heman

Great show but it rained I mean down poured and it cost $18. For plastic ponchos. We did get a great seat cuz so many wimpy people left. If u come around 6:15 you won't have to at for parking .

J Arms

Very cool, I'm 23 and I almost cried watching all my favorite princess with their princes, Mickey Mouse fighting villains, and hearing the music from my happy childhood!

Cathy Hammel

Awesome featuring numerous characters, awesome seats, definitely worth purchasing the dessert party

Alharith

Simply put this is the best experience Disney has to offer, the nostalgia brought tears to our eyes.

Flávia Diniz

Beautiful show, surprisingly more beautiful than Magic Kingdom's fireworks ... But make sure not to sit on the first 10 rows, especially during the winter, because you can get wet!

Rebecca Morrison

Hands down my favorite show at WDW. Beware the idiots who think it's kosher to "reserve " 2 rows of prime seats for their way-too-big family (stop having kids). It's not. Tell a cast member.

Kelly Rochford

Dining package is a JOKE. Don't bother purchasing it with the participating restaurants . Buy your tickets to the show separately and get to the entrance early so you can get a good seat & save money.

Alexandra Alves

There's no doubt Fantasmic is the best show in WDW, much better then Wishes or any other. Get early in line or you will miss it. If it rains a lot, the show won't happen.

Lisa Reams

If you happen to be visiting on a 2 show night, do yourself a favor and enjoy the rides until the park closes and then make Fantasmic your last stop. The second show is ALWAYS less crowded .

Clarissa McDaniel

Get in line early or get a dinner package to get good seating. Sitting too close to the water can result in you leaving the show wet. Great show.

Carolyn Taylor

Amazing show with water, lights, and fireworks . May be loud for those with sensitive ears. Get there early to get a good seat.

Michael Leger

It's Mickey ,pyro,dragons,water screen,lasers,fireworks , and a woman with fins for feet! Don't get much better than that unless you buy some of the roasted almonds ! A must do @ WDW!

Hunter Knepshield

Pro tip: at the end of the show, go to the very bottom (closest to the water) of the amphitheater first and go to the very right. Easiest and fastest way to leave!

Christopher Hoey

Here is your plan: 1. Stay Chill (have a few cold ones if need be) 2. Walk in casual 3. Go to second show 4. Eat before and finally 5. Make your damn kid use the legs nature gave him!

Daniel Chandler

Its really a great show if you love the characters also you may get a slight mist and the glow with the show ears really enhance the experience

Curran

The dining meal plan is a very good deal . Also the preshow hosted by Heather, Hunter, and Garrin is a fun, albeit a little campy, way to pass time while waiting in your seat.

John Kula

Dining packages now get you dead center reserved seating. Better than fast pass seats. Get in 1hr before show for best seats.

Brianna Howlett

This is a must see!!! Usually try to hit up the later show since most people go to the first one. This show gives me chills every time I see it!

Stella Brewer

Second showing is much more manageable. Crowded but still plenty of seats. Really great show. Not a bad seat in the house from what I could tell.

Marc Andre Roy

Just get a dinning experience tied to your schedule and you can enjoy the Fantasmic show, 15 minutes prior, on the front row!

Stephanya Hammond

It really is something to see at least once in yours life. It's like seeing fantasia in person. Well done. A bit of a wait though

Greg Hesp

Do yourself and everyone around you a favour. Turn your cameras flash OFF! Your pictures will turn out 100x better and you won't annoy those around you!

Puu Kampolratana

Out of all the shows at Disney, I would recommend this one. Get your beer and churros , enjoy the show.

Connor

Getting a seat can be very stressful. Just stay calm and remember where you are. Oh and get here early if you want to avoid a little stress.

Ron Herdy

Very nice show, beyond fireworks , real theater design. Get early for good seat and enjoy !

Sasha Naomi

As soon as Mickey comes out, leave the auditorium to beat the crowd and you can watch the fireworks from the parking lot .

Sarah Kent

awesome show! they will cancel or delay based on weather (which is a lot during a florida summer). be prepared to wait. special effects are better here than epcot but the music is better at epcot

Christopher White

Wonderful light and laser show with all of Mickey 's friends. Get there early to get a good seat.

Bharat Jay

This show is a whole another level of amazing! It's like they packed a whole bunch of happy into it - just do it! :)

James Dobbs

People never sit in the very front rows as they don't want to get wet. You want a great view and great experience ? Go to the front you won't regret it!

Steffanie Ramirez

The best show in Hollywood studios!!! Get the fast pass if you can, it get's crowd.

Björn Bobach

Don't be tempted by all the "smart" people leaving once the Steamboat Sequence starts - you are going to miss the best at the very end!!

Diego P Alvarez

It is packed tonight! December definitely not the best time to come, so cold! But definitely worth paying the dinner package for the reserved seats

Tom Stoffel

Make a dinner/lunch reservation that includes VIP seating. You can show up 30 minutes before the show and still get a seat!

Sara Hayes

At the end of the show, work your way to the bottom of the bleachers and walk across. Everyone else will be moving up the bleachers to exit.
