Fireworks view at BC

[cara loves the poly]

Can you see the Epcot fireworks from your balcony at Beach Club? Is it a room category? I have skimmed through the faq thread but haven't gotten a clear answer. I am a Poly fan for the fireworks view from my room, but considering trying the BC. Thanks!

We've been on the 4th floor and the only fireworks you can see are the high ones. Since Illuminations has a lot of stuff happening on the lake and close to the ground, you'd be missing a lot. But, that being said, if you've seen Illuminations (as we have), we just enjoyed sitting on the balcony and watching those fireworks we were able to see.

The Beach Club is our home resort - we love it there, but I'd love to have a chance to stay at the Poly just once!!

have fun

I've had a first floor room at BC facing Epcot and could see the high fireworks. Obviously, the higher you are, the more you can see. From the highest floors at BCV, I could see some of the lake action, but not all. The more the trees grow, the less you'll see, and if you're there in winter when the few trees that lose their leaves are bare, you can see more.

I had a third floor room at BC and we saw the fireworks. I was shocked because I couldn't figure out which way our room was facing. I had no idea it was facing Epcot. All I could see was a lot of trees. Then I was resting on the bed one night and heard something and saw lights, and it was the fireworks. We couldn't see any if the stuff happening on the lake, but we could see all the high ones shooting up. It was very cool!

There are definitely some rooms with a fireworks view, although as others have pointed out, it's not all that great beause you can only see the high ones, and so much of Illouminations is multi-media that's done at ground level.

The bridge between the BC and BW is a good viewing point, and if the weather cooperates, you might want to think about watching from the BC beach. If you get there early enough you can snag a swinging chair or beach chair.

Have a great time!
