There's gonna be four adults going in my group all of us first timers and none of us have kids and I was wondering if Enchanted Tales With Belle was something we should plan on doing or should we skip it and leave space for people with children?

Do it if only to see the genius that is the Lumiere AA!!!! Seriously...the single best feat of imagineering I have seen yet! The attraction is definitely geared for kids but well worth it for the wonderment.

First timers and adults.... sure go see it. Youre there to have fun and to enjoy yourselves. Anything that interests you is fair to see and do. Dont think youre out of place without kids along. We're all kids when we step onto Main street. Do everything and anything that will make your trip to the world enjoyable and magical.

I did it and I was the Beast.

We do it late at night, usually. It's certainly worth the experience. The effects are very cool.

If you're a fan of Beauty and the Beast, it's worth seeing at least once.

I don't have kids and I went. It ended up being one of the highlights of my trip. Plus, if I wasn't there, who would've played Chip?!? No one?!?

My suggestion is to watch Wishes in New Fantasyland then immediately go over to it. (Or, if you don't want/need to see Wishes, go during the fireworks.) I've found it's literally a walk-on during the fireworks and I've watched Wishes over in NFL while cast members were like, "no wait to see Belle!!" leading up to them so we just walked right over as soon as they were done.
It's cute. They picked my husband for a suit of armor (they get guys normally) so I took pics of him. It's worth seeing once but really, as an adult, once is enough.

we did the same and totally agree, still gets a thumbs up tho
Beauty and the Beast is still my favorite Disney movie ever and now I'm looking forward to seeing Enchanted Tales, thanks everyone!

Don't waste a FP go in the evening when the kids are heading home. Also you can totally jump in line during picture time and get a picture with Belle even if you didn't get to be one of the actors.

True, that is very cool.
And the Lumiere animatronic is worth seeing as well.
But my wife & I both found the rest of it really hokey and lame.
10 months later, we both still joke about how bad it was.

Last three trips, chosen for the marching suit of armor every time. I must look the part. I like it and as my wife is quick to point out I think it's the only place to get a picture with Belle as long as you are picked or volunteer for a part. Definitely a once per trip stop for us.

I've been down on this attraction because of its Show-And-Tell audience participation aspect. And I still wish it didn't have that element. I wish TDO had used the space to do an abridged retelling of Beauty and the Beast, using more AAs like Lumiere (I'd love to see a Cogsworth AA that's as well done as that). But I have to say, that if you're there and there's just the right group of kids, it can be a lot of fun and kind of sweet. The last time I visited Enchanted Tales, I saw parents tearing up as their kids acted out the parts and met Belle. I guess the attraction serves its purpose. It's certainly more affecting than the Mermaid ride...

We went as two adults and even used FP+ for it. It is not repeatable to us but you should see it! The doorway effect, wardrobe and Lumierre anamatronics are very sophisticated. We enjoyed it.
