Ok this looks like it will be an amazing show! There is very little information on it in the book so I am asking here. We will be in HS August 22 and the show goes at 10pm. We definitely cannot afford to do the dessert party at $79 times 4 people so I have some questions about how to navigate this. I am sure the park is going to be crazy because of TSL as well.
There’s a path they keep clear that crosses the area, we sat just behind in and stayed sitting throughout the show. I think we arrived about 80 mins beforehand, put down our rug and then took it in turns to go do other stuff. We also had a picnic dinner while waiting.
