loubeee Posted August 9, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 9, 2018 We're on the Gem in November. What times do the shows and late night events usually happen? When should we book specialty dining reservations? I was thinking 7:30 pm but then I realized it could conflict with showtimes. We are in our late twenties so we're okay with being up late and plan to be. What are the late showtimes? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted August 9, 2018 #2 Share Posted August 9, 2018 The shows are usually at 7:00 and 9:00. Like most things, you would want to show up to the theater at least 15 minutes early to get a seat. So a 7:30 dinner reservation really does not work for either the early or late shows.

casofilia Posted August 9, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Have an early light dinner in a MDR at 5.45 and then a late light dinner in the MDR after the first show. OR a light dinner in the MDR at 7.00 before the late show and a supper in the Buffet after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mid43 Posted August 9, 2018 #4 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Dinners in the main dining room generally average at least 90 mins, and I have heard up to 2hrs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and if you are going to a show after dinner you should tell your server. They're supposed to ask, but I haven't found it to be consistent. Servers ordinarily don't take dessert orders until all main-course dishes have been cleared. Once I was with someone, not going to the show that night, who ordered two main courses and set the whole table back by 20 minutes or so. Similarly, if anyone orders two appetizers, serving of the main courses will be delayed. In either case, servers can bring yours sooner if they know.

casofilia Posted August 9, 2018 #6 Share Posted August 9, 2018 It is logical that if you are wanting to go to a show that you sit at a 2 top, rather than to take a shore offer, and tell the server; especially if time is "short". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesea777 Posted August 9, 2018 #7 Share Posted August 9, 2018 The shows are usually at 7:30 pm and at 9:30 pm. Except for the first day - only one at 8:00pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ottawa_Cruiser Posted August 20, 2018 #8 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I got off the Gem July 28th. The show are at 7pm and 9pm. My suggestion is to grab a light snack (buffet or O'Sheehans) prior to the 7pm show and then have dinner around 8:30. For the shows, like a previous member said, you want to be there about 15 min ahead to get seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClevelandCruisin Posted August 21, 2018 #10 Share Posted August 21, 2018 We arrived at 630 and could stay through the show. Sent from my SM-G960U using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
