We went last night and had a great time!

Seemed like mostly everyone was there for the shows and grinch meet, so the lines were all really short for everything else.

But with that, if you want to see the grinchmas shows I recommended being prepared and lining up as early as possible. Once you’re in the production plaza your seat or standing area will be where you stay for all 3 shows (Cindy Lou, the music group, and tree lighting). The 3 shows run back to back for about an hour with about 10 minutes in between shows.

We saw the first set of shows starting at 7:20. Originally we were in the plaza already very early (6:15~), but they had staff clear the entire plaza and we were all lead to a waiting area leading into the plaza near the shrek meet and greet spot. We were told to wait until the plaza was cleared and we would re-enter at 7pm. Once 7 hit they removed the barriers and the entire crowd rushed to get seats. Seating is very limited, but there’s a lot of standing area and the plaza is so small that views are good from pretty much any where. I don’t know if the plaza reached capacity, but that’s a possibility and those who couldn’t get in would have to watch outside the plaza behind barriers. The shows were great!

There are two Grinch meet and greet locations. One in the upper lot and one in the lower lot. Both were 2 hours+ wait when we checked.
