How early do I need to arrive to be able to see the Enchantment projections on the castle?

And where is a good spot?

We never head over until about 20 minutes prior... regardless of when you stake out a spot, you will end up in the middle of a mass of humanity. We just shoehorn ourselves into the masses near the hub...

Having said that there are only two of us and not a family with young children.

My friend and I joined the crowd right as it started and had a perfect view. We were on Main Street at the ice cream shop. CMs kept yelling not to stop behind us (they keep it clear as a walkway across the street). That worked out well because no one was standing directly behind us. Gave us a little breathing room.

If it’s a top priority I would head over a hour early. You can come later and squeeze in but I think getting there early reduces the stress level
