The moment we’ve all been waiting for has FINALLY arrived!

Fantasmic! has been closed in Disney’s Hollywood Studios since the pandemic closures in 2020, but it’s finally BACK. The fan-favorite spectacular officially returns on November 3rd, and Disney promised a few new elements will feature in the updated show. Come with us to see the return of Fantasmic! and check out those changes!
Fantasmic! runs nightly at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, with variable showtimes. Usually, the show will be at 8PM or 9PM, and some days have multiple shows. Check out a full look at Fantasmic! showtimes here. Be sure to check the My Disney Experience app to see what time Fantasmic! is showing during your visit.

We visited on November 2nd (the day before the official opening) as part of a media preview event in order to check out the changes to Fantasmic! While that performance was delayed and eventually canceled due to weather, we are back tonight for its official reopening at 8PM!
Ahead of the show, there were major crowds waiting for hours to make sure they got in for the debut.
