California Grill Fireworks before reservation?

[TinkerBellSam]

I understand you can go back up to the California Grill balcony if you have your recipt from earlier in the evening, but can you go up early so long as you have a reservation? Our 25th wedding anniversary reservation is for 9:15 but Holiday Wishes is currently scheduled for 8:00 pm. Any knowledge would be helpful!

Bump!!

I was about to ask the same question. We have a 9:00 p.m. ADR on a night when Wishes goes off at 8:00 p.m. Will we be allowed to go to the observation deck and then wait in the lounge for our table?

We were there in July 2009 and got to see a Space Shuttle launch and the fireworks from the observation deck, but this time we'll just make do with Wishes...

We have the same question. Have an 8:55 pm ADR. Surely someone on DIS knows the answer....

Same question here! We have a 9:30 ADR when Wishes is at 9:00.

I'm pretty sure you can tell them you're early and you would like to go up to the bar.
