Hey there, Ashley!
What a great question!
Fantasmic! is my absolute favorite Disneyland Resort show, and it is always on the top of my must-do list as well. I was so excited to hear about its
return in May 2022, especially since this year will mark Fantasmic!'s 30th anniversary.
If you're planning a trip in September, there isn't a way to guarantee which days Fantasmic! will be performed; however, there are a few ways to increase your chances. My first tip is to aim for a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. Guests are more likely to see big entertainment offerings during the weekend versus weekdays.
Another tip is to consider going on a higher-tier day. Disneyland uses a
tier system, numbered 1-6, to price tickets. Tier 1 tickets are the cheapest and Tier 6 the most expensive. The higher the Tier, the higher the estimated crowds. Disneyland typically offers more entertainment options on higher-tiered days, which will increase your chances of seeing Fantasmic!
Best of luck on planning your trip to the Happiest Place on Earth. Should you need more advice, please come back to planDisney. We would love to have your questions.
Happy planning,
Lola
