I used the search and didn’t see a new Fantasmic topic.
The Park hours page shows DHS open just until 9:00 PM, but still lists a 2nd show at 9:30PM. So, is there really a show at 9:30PM? And are they then just shuffling people into the viewing arena until 9:00PM, just after the Wonderful World of Animation?
Thanks
I don’t know this case specifically but they often have nighttime spectaculars soon after park closing. Usually I would expect it to start right at park closing, but 30 min isn’t a stretch.
Maybe someone knows specifically. Regardless, if the official Park calendar lists it for your day, it should be accurate.
On chat people are listing they are getting in line about 30 min minutes early for second Fantasmic showing.
Pop over there for boots-on-the-ground intel. It’s the Touring Plans WDW Chat.
The shows are at 8:00 and 9:30? The 8:00 crowd will leave the stadium and then the 9:30 show will enter. You do not need to be in a seat by 9:00. The process takes a while and continues after the 9pm closure.
The official Disney site will always show you the latest updated times for each day

Yes, that 2nd show happens after official park closure times.
