CP - Illuminations Viewing ??

[anne930]

Does anyone have any idea of how the special viewing of Illuminations will be handled for Candlelight package people? We normally go to the 3rd viewing of CP, which will not give us a lot of time between the end of CP and when Illuminations begins. I can't imagine a viewing area big enough for all 3 groups of people attending CP and even if it's big enough, the 3rd group of CP will have the worst views, coming in last. I hate having to eat early enough to go to the middle show.

Any ideas of how this will work and if the viewing will actually be a benefit?

Thank,
Anne

Usually around the time that CP starts they modify Epcot's hours to close at 9:30, so then IllumiNations is at 9:30, not 9:00.

That will help! We usually try to sit right at the middle aisle, so maybe we can be one of the first people out of the theatre. I still can't imagine that many people in one of Disney's private viewing areas. I guess we'll have to wait for the first shows to see what happens.

I read that there will be 3 viewing areas, one for each show group.

Really?? That would make a big difference!! I hope that's what they do! We've never seen the Christmas version of Illuminations - this may be our chance to do that! Thanks so much - that makes me feel better!
