Fantasmic! Stops Mid-Performance During Early Preview in Disney World

After a long wait, Fantasmic! is set to have its official debut in Disney’s Hollywood Studios on November 3rd!

Ahead of its official reopening, the show had a special preview for the media and guests tonight. However, it did not quite go as planned!

Orlando is no stranger to storms and heavy rain, and inclement weather can have a big effect on what goes on the parks. From ride closures to entertainment delays (and even rainy day parades!), Disney World is always ready to change plans due to weather.

Tonight during its early preview, Fantasmic! was stopped mid-performance due to inclement weather in the area. While the audience stuck around to see if the delay would be a short one, an announcement soon came on sharing that the performance would ultimately be canceled.
