I don't know if the OP meant IN crystal palace...in that case, no...it's not a good place. I know it's all glass but there are trees completely covering the front of it. Plus there will be TONS of people standing outside, you will not be able to see the fireworks from there. We tend to watch the fireworks by the train station so that we can hurry out to the buses when it's almost done and then watch the finale from the bus stop (DD is usually half asleep by that point!)
