Fireworks

[vbecky]

I am sorry I am sure it is mentioned here but I can't seem to locate it. I have never actually sat and watched the fireworks before and with being at parks during the holidays I have decided to. I am tho a little unsure of where I would actually go to be able to sit and watch them? I was going to purchase the first fantasmic seating but have kind of bee told that it isn't the best place to watch fireworks? Any help would greatly appreciate it.

Anywhere in the hub where you can see the front of the castle is probably the best view for the fireworks.

Try to avoid extreme angles. Trees get in the way and they center the fireworks over the castle so it may look funny from the sides.

They make everyone stand unless you are sitting on a bench. In which case you'll probably have to get there about an hour and half early to save your spot.

If you are saving a spot in the street, they let people sit until about 15 min before the fireworks. You can get a spot dead center in front of the castle if you get there about 45 min - 1 hr early.

If you arrive for a bench 1.5 hours before fireworks you will NOT get a bench. I begin sitting for a bench by 3:00 and by 4:30 there are no benches left, so keep that in mind if you want to sit. You can't sit on the benches in the middle of the hub. Those are turned for VIP seating and they don't set that up until about 6:30- 7pm.

I have a bad knee, use a scooter and simply can't stand that long so I must have a bench. Since I like the atmosphere more than the rides I have no problem sitting for hours people watching, reading and enjoying the parade. I have even been known to tell people where they can sit in a front row seat for the parade 30 minutes before it begins. I even share my bench with small families. (We are only a family of 3). I already know that on December 26th I will be sitting on my bench by 3pm to see those fireworks up close and personal.
