Electrical Water Parade and Magic Kingdom fireworks from Polynesian?

[jenhelgren]

What time is the Electrical Water Pageant at the Polynesian and where is the best spot on the beach to view the parade and fireworks at Magic Kingdom? Thanks!

It begins at the Polynesian resort at 9 PM before heading to the Grand Floridian. We like to watch it from the main beach or from the end of the boat dock.

Thanks Dave! I just checked and the fireworks are also at 9 in a few weeks the night we have an Ohana ADR planned. Will the water pageant and fireworks be at the same time--if so which spot would you recommend?

I do not remember them being at the same time.

We like to watch both from the main beach.

I don't know if the times vary along with the fireworks show shifting 10-15 minutes one way or another, but here's the link for it to check approx time on a given date:

When the Magic Kingdom Fireworks are scheduled for 9 p.m., the Electrical Water Pageant runs about 7-20 minutes later at the Polynesian resort.

You can watch both from the same spots: Resort launch dock or the beach at the Polynesian resort.

I have not stayed at Poly since New Years so things could be different now, but I stayed at Poly a handful of times last year that had 9PM HEAs and the EWP would run at 8:50PM.

For awhile last year they were even listing it as 8:50 on the monthly activities calendar, but they stopped that a few months ago for some reason (it is no longer listed on the activities calendar).

YMMV.
