Calling on MK veterans out there.

I currently have an ADR for 4pm at 'Ohana but so far it looks like that is the only day I'll be able to catch FoF (which I haven't seen yet).

Can I watch the full parade AND make it to the Poly in time for my ADR?? Right now the only other available ADR is at 9:15 and I'll miss the fireworks if I do that one.
 
If you're trying this in September, it'll be a 3:00 parade. FoF won't finish in the Town Square area until 3:45ish.

If you watched in Frontierland, the parade should be past that area by 3:20/3:25. You still would have to get from Frontierland through the crowds to the park exit.

Keep trying for a 4:30 or little later 'Ohana ADR.
 

I think you can make it. Catch the parade early in the route near Splash Mnt (on the Pecos Bill side) and immediately afterward head through Fontierland towards Main Street. Cut through Caseys and the shops.

What I don't know and why I say "I think" is I don't know if you can cross the route near the firehouse to exit the park if the parade is going on. If you can, you SHOULD have plenty of time. Just make sure you're in the know as far as monorail issues or transportation changes during that time.
 
It's at 3pm

I think it'll be cutting it close but could be done. I would stand right by Casey's and as soon as the parade is past where your standing, walk through the gift shop to the front entrance, and hop the monorail or boat to the Poly.
 
I would keep trying for later but remember that you have 15 minutes grace.

Surprisingly (and disappointingly) you cannot cross near the Fire Station (or Main St. RR station) when the parade has reached near that area.
Guests are stranded in Town Square once the parade has neared (and is passing) the areas there.

If you are on the north side of the street loop around Town Square, and/or on the west side (Emporium side) of Main St., you will not be allowed to exit MK until the FoF Parade has exited the MK near the Fire Station.

So, if you are trying to get out of MK from Adventureland, be sure to cross over to the east side of Main St. as soon as you can.

unless you get there before the parade you will not be able to cross as parade goes off stage there. you will need to be on other side of Main Street to exit the park but it will be slow going. my feeling is you will not make it to Poly/Ohana on time
