Can you see fireworks from a lake view room at BLT?

[luv2sleep]

I'm booked in a lake view studio in June. Can I see fireworks from there?

We stayed in the north tower even numbered room three times and every time we had a room that we could see the fireworks. We stayed in 8008 and 8004. 8008 had the better view.
We also stayed in the south tower even numbered room once, but we could not see the fireworks. You can actually see the water parade nightly on the lake from the south tower.

Depends on where the room is. You can always go up to the TOTWL to watch the fireworks.

Oh! I'd rather see the parade. Are people able to see one or the other? Or are there some lake view studios where you don't see anything? Where's the best location to request to view the light parade?

Will do that too!

We were also on the south side, lake view (outside the 'C') and could see the water pageant nightly. We had hoped to be on the north side to see the fireworks but did not get that request and ended up loving the south side.

My in-laws had a room inside the 'C' that was lake view and on the 11th floor. They could not see the water pageant or the fireworks so yes, there are some rooms where you would not see either.

We had a lake view and were right in the middle of the "c" and our kids loved watching the water pageant parade each night! If we weren't in the parks we'd watched the fireworks from either skybridge, CR observation deck or TOTWL and then settle in our room to await the water pageant.

So what should I request so they I can definitely see the water parade? I know there are no guarantees with this but it can't hurt to ask.

So far we have had excellent rooms. Usually North Tower even numbered rooms are firework views and South Tower even numbered rooms are the water parade views. I'm sure there are rooms that don't have either view. I think some of the odd numbered rooms face the pool. Oh, don't forget to ask for a high floor- 10 or higher. You can't see as well on the lower floors

 

[luv2sleep]

Is there a location that's good to request where you might be able to see both or is that impossible?

If you are inside the C, you will hear the fireworks at the MK, but not see them. And you will hear the water parade like it is right outside your window. Inside the C is very noisy.

Oh ok. So inside must be odd numbered rooms?

Yep.

Ok, I think I'm set! South tower even numbered room. This way I can see the electric parade every night if we are in the room. I am a DL vet and I miss the Main Street Electrical Parade! That was my favorite parade as a kid. It will be nice it on water!

I keep seeing North Tower, South Tower. There is only one tower. Maybe north side, south side. But only one tower. What used to sit on the site of BLTower (not Towers) was the North Wing Building of the Contemporary, very similar to the South Wing Building

I've never been there. So I request the south side then?

This is what I request when requesting a room. North tower even numbered room

Thanks! Looks like none of the studios have a view of the parade mentioned. Lots look at parking lots too. I'd love a view that's primarily lake. Will comb through that link again and narrow things down.

As was mentioned several times the even numbered rooms in the south side (labeled as facing contemporary) should have views of the electric water parade. I'd guess that some of the north side odd numbered rooms could as well. Of course requests are never guaranteed.
