    Traver dropping Fantasmic content today is legit the best comedic timing in a long while. Poor Murphy! ❤❤😊

    I’m glad you got to see it with everything working. Often the pirate ship scene doesn’t have the characters up in the rigging (they just run on the deck), and the dragon is/was nicknamed Murphy for a reason. I like shifting towards Big Thunder for the fireworks for the better view of the fireworks themselves (which I think you might have done). I didn’t even consider that it would make it more difficult to capture the projections.

    I am so glad I stumbled on this video. Just to confirm, if we cannot get the premium package, are you saying we can just make a normal lunch reservation and ask server to "upgrade" to a Fantasmic show package (the sooner the better) to "guarantee" a spot for the night show?

    • @SoCalDisneyDad

      Correct. Provided it’s Riverbelle Terrace, as this is the only location that does this.
      Also provided Fantasmic is running. The dragon caught on fire in April and the show hasn’t been back since. The last reported date was that it’s closed through AT LEAST Labor Day, but no official reopening date has actually been announced.

    Hello! question on booking a fantasmic dining package. We are going in june, i snag a dining reservation at blue bayou this morning, do we get a voucher for fantasmic or is that only a dining reservation? I didnt see that there is also a page for fantasmic dining package. I read something about just asking the server in the restaurant about the dining package. Now im confused if i did my reservation right. Thank you in advance!😊

    • @SoCalDisneyDad
      @SoCalDisneyDad  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      So I deleted my previous comment because I’m getting conflicting evidence online. As you have said.
      Their blog says you need a dining package reservation. Many people report needing the dining package and that asking your server went away in 2022.
      But the Blue Bayou page on the Disney website says “ask you server” so it’s confusing.

We had people walking back and forth in front of us plus CMs with flashlights ushering people through.
