The Fantasmic! show has delighted Guests since 1992 (with its closure in 2016). This show has remained closed since the reopening of the parks.

In November 2021, we shared that Fantasmic! will be returning in 2022. Disney shared that Fantasmic will reopen with a few changes. The new Fantasmic! show will feature “new animation, water effects, and everything that we love about Fantasmic!.” Be sure to check out the details for these new show scenes HERE.

Guests visiting Disneyland have enjoyed Fantasmic! since May 28th. East Coast Disney fans have wondered when we will once again enjoy this nighttime entertainment. We were hopeful that we may have an announcement for Fantasmic! during the D23 Expo last month, but that didn’t pan out as we hoped.

The Walt Disney World website shares that Fantasmic! will reopen in 2022. With only a few months remaining this year, we are looking for a reopening date any day now. We now have a great sign for the return of Fantasmic! at Hollywood Studios.

This past August, Disney shared that the lights had returned as rehearsals are now in place for Fantasmic! Since that time we have seen testing for fireworks and light show testing during the early morning hours at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

Last night, we were overjoyed to see that full testing was taking place at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. @DrewDisneyDude shared a video of this testing captured from the park entrance. Check out the full video of this testing:

Walt Disney World guests cannot wait for the return of this nighttime show and we are hopeful that with every testing this show will return very soon.

When do you think “Fantasmic!” may return to Walt Disney World? Do you think we may hear a reopening announcement very soon? Do you think the new show scenes and upgrades will be worth the wait? Share your thoughts with us on our Facebook Page.
