Fantasmic and Fireworks, which show?

[Czardas]

Which is the best Fantasmic show to go to to see the fireworks? I’m thinking to see the fireworks first and then head to the show for the second performance (less crowds?).
I’m trying to work out if we go to the first, will we be able to make our way through the crowds to get to the firework, or can you get a good view from the first performance area?
I have a BB reservation and it will be a Saturday night.

I feel like it would be easier to do from fireworks to Fantasmic vs the other way around

I think if you catch the first Fantasmic then you’re most likely going to find it easier to watch the fireworks from where you are

If your goal is to see the fireworks with the castle projections, you should do fireworks then Fantasmic. Years ago, I would watch first Fantasmic and then fireworks from Main Street but these days, crowds and guest flow makes that really difficult.

But, you could also watch first Fantasmic and then watch the fireworks from there. They do projections on the water. If you plan to do Blue Bayou for Fantasmic, this could actually be a good option because you'll have an excellent spot for both shows. This means you won't have to save spots for fireworks.
