Hi Curt! Welcome to planDisney!
It looks like you are in for a
"fantasmic" time in Hollywood Studios! You are ready to
"dream a fantastic dream" with Mickey Mouse, villains, dazzling lights, and iconic music!
I often book the
Fantasmic! Dining Package myself. Whether you choose
50's Prime Time Café, the
Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant, or one of the other restaurants, you can't go wrong. You'll enjoy a delicious meal and receive a voucher for guaranteed seating at the show! While your seating is guaranteed, the reserved section is filled on a first-come, first-served basis. I like to arrive about 35 to 40 minutes before the show starts to get settled—often with an ice cream in hand from
Hollywood Scoops! So to answer your question-YES! Reserving a Fantasmic! Dining Package will ensure that you have seating for the show, and if you follow these suggestions-you'll have some of the best seats in Mickey's house!
Don't forget that when you arrive at Hollywood Studios, you'll find two new shows that just recently opened. I'm counting down the days until I see these shows at the end of this month!
The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure and
Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After are open and ready for Guests, and I hope you'll be able to enjoy them while you're there!
Curt, I'm SO happy you stopped by so we could talk Fantasmic! and all the fun you'll have! It's truly a magical show! Please stop by and visit us again as you continue to plan your vacation. We LOVE to help! I'm wishing you magical memories and happy smiles!
Mysteries and magic and visions fantastic! Shonette
