About this Attraction Location: Hollywood Hills Amphitheater Type: Nighttime fireworks and laser show Duration: 25 minutes Pal Mickey Interaction Tips & Fun Facts Try to arrive 1-2 hours before showtime to get a seat. Good seats are usually taken about 1½ - 2 hours before the show starts. Seating starts 90 minutes before showtime, and queues often form well beforehand. The best views are where you can see the front of one of the three water screens. Seats on the first few rows can get wet with spray from the water screens. If there are two shows on one night, the second one will be less busy. The "Fantasmic! Dining Experience," includes dinner at one of three selected restaurants, and seating in a reserved section. In the grand finale, 26 Disney characters cruise across the moat aboard a replica of the "Steamboat Willie" boat. At 80 feet long, it's larger than Christopher Columbus' Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria. "Fantasmic!" premiered at Disneyland® park in May 1992. This production, though similar, features original sequences. Maleficent as the dragon has a wingspan of 50ft, rises 50ft into the air, and weighs 32,000lbs. The moat surrounding the island contains around 1.9 million gallons of water, but is only 1.5ft deep.
