Disney World Expands Fantasmic! to Three Shows Nightly for Peak Holiday Week

The extra performances are a temporary crowd-management move during the Christmas–New Year’s surge.

Overview

  • Disney’s Hollywood Studios will run Fantasmic! at 6:30 p.m., 8:00 p.m., and 9:30 p.m. from December 27–31 and on January 2–3, per the official schedule.
  • New Year’s Day features two shows only, with performances at 8:00 p.m. and 9:30 p.m.
  • Before December 27 the show generally runs once or twice nightly, with single 6:30 p.m. performances on December 20 and 22 due to Jollywood Nights.
  • After January 3 the schedule is set to revert to one nightly performance on most evenings, typically 9:30 p.m., with an 8:00 p.m. exception noted on January 7.
  • The Hollywood Hills Amphitheater holds around 10,000 guests but often fills on peak days, so times are subject to change and visitors are urged to check the My Disney Experience app and arrive early.
