Good Spots for Wishes and MSEP?

[allmydisneydreams]

I remember seeing maps of good spots for viewing fireworks and parades but I don't see it now. We will have a huge party -20 people - on a very busy Spring Break night. Is there anywhere to sit to watch both in a row? How early should we start scouting out a spot? Wishes is at 9 and MSEP at 10:15 (Tuesday, April 7th),

I remember seeing maps of good spots for viewing fireworks and parades but I don't see it now. We will have a huge party -20 people - on a very busy Spring Break night.

1. Is there anywhere to sit to watch both in a row?

2. How early should we start scouting out a spot?

3. Wishes is at 9 and MSEP at 10:15 (Tuesday, April 7th),

1. "Sit?" No.

2. During Spring Break? 20 people?
Two hours before the start of Wishes would not be too early.

You want to be where you can clearly see the front of the Castle to view the "Celebrate the Magic" performance that begins at 8:45 that night.

But, remember that there will be thousands upon thousands of guests trying to watch the FIRST parade of the evening. Many of them will have staked out their spots up to a couple of hours before even that event.

3. The second MSEP that night (10:15) will be MUCH easier to see.
There will be far fewer guests watching that second parade.
Less crowded than on Main Street, but still spectacular parade viewing can be found near the Hall of Presidents, or deep into Frontierland, past the Country Bears.

The last time we watched the MSEP at the Main Street Confectionary. At the end of the parade we followed behind the parade and staked our claim to a spot on the right of the hub. Best view ever! That may be hard to do with 20 people.

We were just there this past Thursday and the park was crowded! We saw Wishes at 10 and the celebrate show on the castle was right before that. We walked out of Tomorrowland past stitch at 9:40 and found a spot on far side of the bridge right under the wire where Tinkerbell flies. There is a tree that partially blocks the view of the castle show but otherwise an excellent spot I thought for wishes if you don't want to wait hours for the show to start. It filled up pretty quickly after we got there. Then we went to the 11pm parade which was the second one of the night and got a spot in the hub as it was starting with no problems.
