I just read somewhere that there will be no Fantasmic show June 19th through June 28th due to the set up of the premier of POTC DMC:mad:
Is this really true does anyone else know any info. We will be there June 21st -26th and we were so looking forward to seeing Fantasmic. If you know anything about this please let me know. Did they close it that long for the last premier???:confused: :confused: :confused:

Yes probabbly is true, seating and movie screens must go up for Pirates, so no Fantasmic!

Double unfortunately.. it's true.

Double because there is no F! and there is also no F! to be seen from the cool seating vantage point that sitting in the 'theater bleachers' for the PotC 2 Premiere would provide.
I think it would be totally awesome to see F! from the bleachers.. and in actual stadium seating at Disneyland... once. :eek:

Yeah, it is true. The bleachers take time to set up and then they have to undergo certain regulatory inspections and sign-offs which is why they can't just throw them up overnight.

The movie screen for the screening is set up on what is the stage for Fantasmic, so once that construction begins, even if viewing were possible it would be physically impossible to perform the show. You can also expect that once construction begins on the screen that Tom Sawyer Island will either close completely or have significant portions of it roped off.

do you think that all the bleachers will be gone on the 25th, the day after the premiere?

Since Fantasmic doesn't return until the 28th I would assume that it will take a few days, though they come down much quicker than they go up.

I understand that most of the bleachers will be removed the night of June 25th, to open up the pathways for the Pirates extended queue that will be needed for the public opening on Monday the 26th.

Things like the screen on the Fantasmic Stage will take a bit longer.

There are no Fantasmic! on the 14th and 15th due to Grad Nites and the park closing at 9 PM, last time I checked, there was Fantasmic! on Friday June 16th, then the show goes dark from the 17th thru the 27th, and returns for shows on June 28th.
