    What time should we plan to get to MBYBBQ? Resv is for 5:30. I've read that seating begins 20 minutes prior. I've also read that we should arrive 30 min before seating begins. Does this mean we should plan to arrive by 4:40 for a 5:30 reservation?

    Welcome back, Erin!

    Mickey's Backyard BBQ is one of our favorite dinner show experiences! If you plan to pick up your tickets at the box office before the show, then you should arrive no later than 40 minutes before show time to pick up your tickets. I prefer to get my tickets at my Disney Resort hotel Concierge Desk a few days before the event to avoid rushing the day of the event. Open seating begins 20 minutes before show time; however, it has been my experience that a line typically forms before that. Therefore, we usually arrive about 30 minutes before seating begins to allow us plenty of time to get through the line to find a table and get settled before the show starts. 

    I hope this helps with your planning, and you enjoy this great character dining experience. Please visit us again if you have any other questions as you plan your magical visit! 

    Happy Planning!
