EPCOT Forever Fastpass availability on the day

[Bradster1067]

Hi! I was wondering how successful others have been in getting a fastpass for Epcot forever on the same day. Since you have to choose between Epcot Forever and rides like Sorin' in the same fastpass tier, I wanted to see if I could book three fast passes then snag an Epcot Forever after we use them. Thank you!

That would vary by crowd size and crowd diversity.
All you can do is try it on the day you are there.
(Making all of your original FPs for as early in the day as possible would help.)

BTW, there are so very many locations around the lagoon to see the show (many with superior views) that don't require a FP.

Thanks for the reply! Yes, we do have our FastPass times for Epcot very early in the morning (basically the 8pm-11pm period) since we spend most of our day in World Showcase after lunch. Hopefully, that does the trick, but I have heard as well that there’s plenty of good spaces to view the show without a FP. Would you have any recommendations for good viewing locations? Thank you!

There are so many places to view the nighttime spectaculars at Epcot's World Showcase
that are wonderful in each of its own way that its futile to try to list them... so I will.

• Bridge between UK and France
• Norway area
• Upper level (outside front terrace) of the Matsu No Ma Lounge in Japan
• Italy, near the Gondolas
• Mexico, at the Cantina
• Mexico, bridge to the right of the Cantina (as you face the lagoon.)
• UK, the Rose & Crown outdoor dining area (ressies required.)
• UK, just to the left of the Rose & Crown (as you face the lagoon.)
• Many, many more great spots.

Be sure to avoid any tree branches that block your overhead view,
and watch out for any "islands" in the water
that block your view of the "center" of the lagoon.

On an extra busy evening, arrive at your chosen spot 45-60 min. before show time.

Most Important Tip:
Don't stand down-wind of the fireworks.
Their SMOKE will ruin the show.
So, If the wind is blowing into your face as you look towards the Lagoon, you are in the wrong spot.
