Hey Ariane-
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. Food and
Fantasmic! is just fabulous. Last June, we made reservations for a Hollywood and Vine Fantasmic! Dinner Package. We filled our bellies from a scrumptious buffet. After our meal we had a number of hours to enjoy Disney’s Hollywood Studios attractions before Fantasmic!.
The Fantasmic! Dinner Package is offered through three restaurants: The Hollywood Brown Derby, Hollywood & Vine and Mama Melrose's Ristorante Italiano. After you have enjoyed your meal you server should deliver your VIP voucher for Fantasmic!. I would mention it to them at the beginning of your meal.
The
details and prices can be found online. You will need a credit card to make your reservation. These highly sough after reservations carry a 2 day cancellation policy. $10 per person will be forfeited/charged for cancellation within 2 days or no show of this reservation.
I would suggest getting a 6:00 p.m. dining time then heading to an attraction or two before the show. You could also stroll over to the Writers Stop for a delicious Carrot Cake Cookie. Instead of having to get a good seat in the Hollywood Hills Amphitheater 45 minutes before the show you can use your Fantasmic! voucher from your dinner package for the special seating area only arriving 20 to 30 minutes before hand.
The show has fireworks, bright colored lights, Sorcerer Mickey with Disney characters aplenty, classic Disney music and a great water show all in 1.5 feet of water.Now you know why it is Fantasmic!.
Enjoy making many Magical Memories!
