Mobile BOG at 8.05am then welcome show?

Does anyone know how long an average breakfast at BOG takes? If we’ve got an 8.05am reservation, will we have any chance of seeing the welcome show? Thanks

You'll be absolutely fine to catch the welcome show, you shouldn't take more than 30 minutes and it's only a few minutes walk back to the castle. Especially if you pre-order your food so you can skip the kiosk line.

However, I wouldn't go back into the hub for the show (which is cute but not a must see, IMO) and instead use your advantage of already being in Fantasyland before rope drop to be at the front of one of the longer queues like 7DMT or PP.

Thank you! Good point about beating the queues —although I might still think about seeing the show because I’m sentimental and I know my kids would love it as the start to our holiday.

If I had a ADR that early I’d skip the show and take advantage of riding SDMT several times before the crowds, I’d come back another day to see the show.

Depending on your kids ages, the walk back to the hub can be longer than a few minutes plus you will need to get to the other side of the railway station. I would not want to take all that time for a three minute show.

The welcome show now takes place on the castle stage.

That would be my plan as long as its not a emm day although even then you get on mine train before the masses.

There is only me reason I would book a BOG pre park opening ADR and that is to get access to the Fantasyland rides. Watch the Welcome show another day!

I agree watch the welcome shoe another day and get a jump on the rides. We did 7dmt straight after BOG. So I'd head there, Peter pan or princess hall depending on your preferences.
