Favorite Parade Viewing Spots

[bookgirl2632]

Just wondering what everyone's favorite viewing spots are. We always end up on Main Street in front of the Emporium. Where does everyone else like to watch from and how much time do you allow for staking out your spot?

A look at the MK Parade Route-

Disney's (MS) Electrical Parade starts near the Firehouse and exits near Splash Mtn.

The 3 O'Clock Parade (Festival of Fantasy) and both the MVMCP and MNSSHP parades start near Spalsh Mtn. and exit near the Firehouse.

Less crowded than on Main Street, but still spectacular viewing can be found near the Hall of Presidents, or deep into Frontierland, past the Country Bears. (But, at NIGHT from those locations you won't be able to see the spectacular, not-to-be-missed show that is actually projected on the front of the Castle, "Celebrate the Magic," which begins about 15 minutes before the fireworks.)

Follow up question: if I wanted to watch Dream Along with Mickey and then the FoF Parade back-to-back, could I do that from the same location? Or should I move to another location after Dream Along with Mickey for a better parade view?

If they are not using the area in front of the Castle (Forecourt) Stage for parade FP+
(which may MIGHT start doing in November) you can stay there are watch the parade.
Great spot.

Below is my GUESS of where the new Hub FP+ Parade view area will be starting in November. Just a GUESS. Only time will tell if I'm right (or at least close.)
