Hi Missy!
Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel. It sounds like you are getting ready for a fantastic holiday vacation at Walt Disney World Resort and I'm so happy to hear that you are planning on enjoying
Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM!. This show has a special place in my heart because I was able to enjoy it with my family on the evening it premiered. It is such a charming and festive show with beautiful projections and fun fireworks that I think you will love!
Disney's Spirit of Aloha Dinner Show is such a fun dining experience that mixes incredible Polynesian dancing with a tasty all-you-care-to-enjoy meal. I enjoyed Disney's Spirit of Aloha Dinner Show with some of my Disney Parks Moms Panel friends this summer and it was so much fun to enjoy together. The dinner show lasts approximately two hours, which means you would be done with the show around 7:15 p.m. I recommend that you allow one hour transportation time when you are traveling from Disney's Polynesian Village Resort to Disney's Hollywood Studios using complimentary resort transportation. I think it would be too close to get the best viewing spot for Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM! at 8:30 p.m. Keep in mind that the show's fireworks will go off from the right side of the viewing area, so to get the best view of the entire show, I recommend that you try to find a spot on the left side of Grauman’s Chinese Theatre (closer to Echo Lake) to view the projects and fireworks together. Since the viewing area does fill up early if you are arriving from the park's entrance close to 8:30 p.m., you may not get the optimal viewing location for Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM!.
Let us know if you have additional questions! T-T-F-N, ta ta for now!
