Fantasmic! is a truly unforgettable production at the Hollywood Hills amphitheater in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Combining water effects, fireworks, and appearances by literally dozens of Disney characters — all set to Disney songs in an original story starring none other than Mickey Mouse — it’s a show you won’t want to miss!
An overhauled version of Fantasmic! debuted in November 2022. We’re getting to see some new characters in the updated show — including a new scene with Elsa that features the song “Show Yourself” from Frozen 2. Fantasmic! is considered a must-do for many Disney World visitors — and that means you need to plan ahead to fit it into your day.
So, you may be wondering how long this nightly show is. While Fantasmic! used to have a run time of about 25 minutes, the new scenes have added to it, and now Fantasmic! is 29 minutes long.
It’s important to keep on eye on the start time for Fantasmic! in the My Disney Experience app — because it does change frequently. You also might want to book a Fantasmic! Dining Package — it’s a great way to guarantee you’ll have a reserved seat for the show! We’ve got lots more details about the dining packages here!
