Hypothetical Fantasmic Question

I have been closely watching the DHS Calendar as they continue to add more Fantasmic! shows for November....I am hopeful they add a couple more during my short trip down next month. We will be there 11/18-11/22 and at the moment, there is only a 6:30 show. However, the weeks previous, they have added a few 8pm shows, too.

So, if they add shows and the choice is between 6:30pm and 8pm....which do you think would be less hectic to go to. People usually say the second show is less chaotic but since both are relatively early I am wondering if would be true???

Thx,

Danielle

We like the later shows better, even being that early there seems to be less crowd.

I'm not sure if it'd be less hectic or not... but if it's a last minute add for an 8pm show people may not plan for it/know about it... *shrugs* I'm really no help

From what I understand. If another show gets added at the last minute. They expect crowds to be bigger, that is why they add on.

The later shows are always less crowded. Many people leave when the park closes, not realizing that there's another show.

I have noticed that they are cutting way back on the number of Fantasmics that they run, so I wouldn't depend on the added show. But if they add it while you're there, I'd go for the later one.

The later shows definitely tend to be less crowded, but I don't think by much. Plus, when that show ends you have to fight those crowds when leaving the park
