Accessible areas for Parades and Fantasmic?

I'm seeing lots of talk of sitting on the ground with a dining package - that's a no go for us. We're both disabled and will be using some form of electric device such as an ecv or wheelchair. I know in Disney world they use to have areas where you could show up and park to watch the parades and such. Does disneyland have anything like this?

The accessible area for Fantasmic dining packages is mainly at the back of each area. You wait in line with everyone else in your viewing area and then when the CM's open the viewing areas you will be directed to park your ECV scooter or wheelchair at the back of that viewing area. Any person in your party who is not in a scooter can either stay beside you or go to main sitting area. There is also a dining area at Harbour Galley that CM's may open for accessible use.

There are some ADA locations. You might reach out to disability services and inquire what is available.

In order to park in the back of Fantasmic dining package section, one must purchase a dining package. If not, then the ECV area is on the side near Golden Horseshoe. I haven't used it personally but, according to others, it fills up quickly.

For Paint the Night, if you do a dining package or tour, there is a designated space for wheelchairs or ECVs to park. If you don't do a package or a tour, there is no designated space. You would find a spot on the parade route along with everyone else.

So it sounds like a dining pkg is probably still a good idea.
