Best view of Block Party Bash

So, If we are in front of the hat, we get to see Toy story AND bugs life? That would be great.

WHERE in front of the hat do you stand? For example, if I am coming up to the hat and I am facing it, where would you tell me is the best place to go? Is there a curb or somewhere to sit?

Not really. The Toy Story unit is more to the right of the Hat, and the Bugs Life unit is more to the left of the Hat. You may be able to see a little bit of both, but not a good view.

Also, it doesn't matter what side of the street you are on. They are doing the same stuff on both sides.
 
I will only ever sit on the first stop area again. We didn't realize about the length of the stops (we visited the very first day they started this new 'parade') - and thought it was more of a parade. We stopped at Sounds Dangerous about 25 minutes before start time. Unfortunately due to this area being on the 2nd stop - we ended up having to wait about 45 - 50 minutes before it got to us. That is a long time on the hard steps. Too long a wait. I will always go somewhere on between entrance and the hat from now on - to see the first stop. Then I can go hop on a ride while everyone watching the 2nd stop continues to watch for another 1/2 hour.
 
Here's a new map with the approximate locations of the "parade stops" for Block Party Bash.

This is one of the best maps I've seen of Robo's . Thanks Robo very helpful.

It also explained ahead of time for me exactly where Toy Story Mania is. I wasn't real sure until now.
 

What are the times of the bash? I think I read one is at 3pm? Thanks.

Robo-AWESOME map! Thanks!

Thanks for the kind words!

Here's another look at how to get to TSMM from the front gates (and rope drop.)

We were in the area between numbers 4 and 5. We had an excellent view of the Block Party Bash. Our original place was in the shade but we had some very rude guests decide that standing directly in front of us was better which prevented DD from seeing (she and I were sitting on the ground waiting for the parade). I could have seen them deciding to stand in front of us had there been some children in their group but there were absolutely none in their group. A CM was wonderful (apologized for the guests very rude behavior) and took us to a different area to stand. We were right in front of the Toy Story stop.

Next time I might stand on Hollywood Blvd.
 
Thanks Robo! You are the best!!!

Does the alternative path to TSMM help out a bunch?

The "alternate path" is a LONGER route.

I added it due to the CM's on some mornings guiding "Rope Drop" guests via that route.

If the CM's guide the rope drop that way, are there other CM's guarding the other way?
