Do you recommend FP for IllumiNations? Thank you for your help.

There are so many great places to see IllumiNations, that tying up a FP+ all day just to see the show is unnecessary.

There are so many places to view IllumiNations at Epcot's World Showcase
that are wonderful in each of its own way that its futile to try to list them... so I will.

• Bridge between UK and France
• Norway area
• Upper level (outside front terrace) of the Matsu No Ma Lounge in Japan
• Italy, near the Gondolas
• Mexico, at the new Cantina
• Mexico, bridge to the right of the Cantina (as you face the lagoon.)
• UK, the Rose & Crown outdoor dining area (ressies required.)
• UK, just to the left of the Rose & Crown (as you face the lagoon.)
• Many, many more great spots.

Be sure to avoid any tree branches that block your overhead view,
and watch out for any "islands" in the water
that block your view of the "center" of the lagoon.

On a busy evening, arrive at your chosen spot 45-60 min. before show time.

Most Important Tip:

Don't stand down-wind of the fireworks.
Their SMOKE will ruin the show.
So, If the wind is blowing into your face as you look towards the Lagoon, you are in the wrong spot.

If you can get it as your fourth FP (which we did) then yes it's great, you get a very good view and it's not as crowded as everywhere else. But I wouldn't necessarily choose this as a FP over the other tier 1 attractions.

I agree with PP. I wouldn't use it as one of my top three but if you can get a 4th one it might be worth it then
