Dinner after Fantasmic!

[Shelliemay]

We plan to watch Fantasmic! with my family at 7 pm on Feb 2 (Super Bowl Sunday ) and I believe the show ends before 7.30. So we made a 8 PM ADR at Flying Fish Cafe. Do you think we can make it after the show ? Or should we move the times later? Thanks.

It will take you about a half hour to exit the theatre, walk to the park exit and wait for transportation to the Boardwalk (even if you have driven your own car you need to wait on the parking lot tram). Fantasmic holds a LOT of people who will all be leaving at the same time.

I think you should change your ADR to 8:30. If you arrive before that they may be able to seat you early. But you won't be on time for 8.

I don't think it will take a half hour to get to the exit if you don't have strollers and you walk fast! I'm guessing you are taking a boat to the Boardwalk...I never have. I do know after you get off at the Boardwalk you'll still need time to walk to Flying Fish. If you drive your own car and you park close enough to walk without taking the tram then take the exit that leads straight to (or very close to) EPCOT Resorts Blvd. Driving may be faster than Disney transportation? I would move it back to 8:15 if possible or even 8:30 so you don't kill yourself trying to get there. I've never had problems showing up a little late to an ADR but if it is preventable then go that route. Even if you are early the Boardwalk area is a fun, nice place to hang out.

There is no way you could get to the Boardwalk by the Friendship Boats in time. The boats can be slow (although I thoroughly enjoy them). I'd move the ADR.

A half hour is not enough...we were able to walk back to BWV before the first boat left DHS because of crowds and lines...the boat then stops at Swan/Catfish first...BWV is another 15 minutes after that...

Even if you are driving you still have to get through the gate and even sometimes have to park across the street which=a long walk. I would either leave Fantasmic early or change ADR.

the boat will stop at the Swan and Dolphin and I believe Yacht Club /Beach Club before you even get to the boardwalk 8:30 would be better

Thank you guys for your help! We decide to change ADR to 8.30 at the Yachtsman Steakhouse. The steaks look more appealing to us than the fish dishes.

Good call.
