Electrical parade and fireworks

[ashleymrush]

How easy is it to get a good viewing if the fireworks after having FP+ for MSEP? I've seen some people say to just move back once the parade is over but we are going in mid- June when it will be quite busy. Should we just plan to do the parade and fireworks in separate nights to ensure good viewing for Wishes? The fireworks are very important to me and I want my son who will be seeing them for the first time to have a good view. What do you think?

If you time it right, you should be able to move into the just-cleared Parade Route in the middle of the street. Watch for the last parade float as it approaches and make your move accordingly.

I've included red arrows to show where to MOVE
for viewing Wishes (and Celebrate the Magic) right after the parade passes the parade FP+ reserved area.

We were there in Sept and used a FP+ for MSEP (awesome location). We have two toddlers and a double stroller. While we originally intended to move back, we found that there was really no easy way to do that with the crowds and a double stroller, so we stayed put. It was an awesome location for Celebrate the Magic, but Wishes was definitely obstructed. My kids still loved it, but I'd say that we couldn't see at least 50% of the fireworks.

If you don't have a stroller, however, I bet you could fairly easily make your way back before Wishes starts.

Thanks for the info and the map. One more quick question, is the MSEP FP area standing room only or is there space to sit on the curb? I'm trying to decide if it is worth getting the FP+ for. Thanks again.

You can sit on the edge of the curb, like anywhere else along the parade route. Your legs should not extend into the street itself.
