Hi
Vicki! Please tell your grandson he'll have three opportunities to see
Fantasmic! On Saturday August 20, 2011 at 9:00 PM, Sunday August 21, 2011 at 8:30 PM, and Tuesday August 23, 2011 at 8:30 PM.
I would like to offer some recommendations concerning the wait time for Fantasmic! You might want to consider making reservations for a
Fantasmic Dining Package (FDP). This package will grant your family access to the Hollywood Hills Amphitheater through an alternate entrance. With a FDP you are guaranteed seating for Fantasmic! If you are not using the Disney Dining Plan, you will be required to put a credit card on file when making your FDP reservation. However, you won't be charged until you eat at the restaurant. You will receive VIP vouchers and given instructions to arrive at the alternate entrance gate no later than thirty minutes prior to show time. I would suggest getting there at least forty five minutes in advance. FDP has a designated seating area, but if you get to the amphitheater early, you can still enter through the FDP line and sit wherever you want since you are not required to sit in the reserved seating.
Upon arrival at Disney's Hollywood Studios, be sure to obtain a
Guest Assistance Card (GAC) from Guest Relations for your grandson. That way if don't book a FDP, you can present your grandson's GAC to any of the Cast Members in the amphitheater. Your family will be directed to the rows designated for disabled guests. However, you may be able to choose your seats within those rows. I would recommend booking a FDP, that way your grandson won't have to endure as long a wait before the show begins. Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance. Have a memorable visit to the Walt Disney World Resort!
