A Walt Disney World Resort guest recently shared a video of an operational collapse during Fantasmic! at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Disney cast members reportedly evacuated thousands of guests from the Hollywood Hills Amphitheater after a technical malfunction forced the nighttime spectacular to stop just over four minutes in.Fantasmic! premiered at Disney’s Hollywood Studios (then Disney-MGM Studios) in 1998, six years after the inaugural show debuted on the Rivers of America at Disneyland Park. Like many long-running Disney Park attractions, Fantasmic! has undergone several changes over the years. Most recently, in 2022, the nighttime spectacular reopened from a two-year closure with new scenes inspired by Frozen 2 (2019), Moana (2016), Aladdin (1992), Pocahontas (1995), and Mulan (1998). The show still features Mickey Mouse’s dream sequence, dazzling water effects, a battle against Maleficent, and the character-packed steamboat finale.
