Fantasmic! and SWW Questions

[wdwwdeagle]

I've noticed that the calendar for DHS has been updated for May. DHS was originally scheduled to close at 9pm on several dates, with a F! performance at 9pm. However, now the calendar lists that the park will stay open until 10pm, with an additional F! performance at 10:30. How does that work? Do they close the entrance gates and all attractions at 10, and then corral everyone toward the F! theater to wait for the 10:30 show?

Also, regarding SWW -- when does the special Star Wars parade take place? Is it in place of the Block Party Bash at 3pm, or is it at another time, in addition to BPB?

Pretty much like that, but most people would be in their seats for F! by 10 anyway. They don't rush people out of the park who aren't going to the last showing. They're more than happy to let you buy stuff in the shops.
