Hi All,

I'm trying to book a FP for Splash.

I want to watch wishes at 10 PM. Park closes at 11; the available FP is 9:45-10:45. Is that doable? I want to watch Wishes in front of the castle. Do they still give you a 15 minute window if you're late?

thx

You'll be 100% fine.
Wishes' total running time is under 15 minutes.

You can get from the Hub to Splash very easily after Wishes (7-10 minutes.)
The preponderance of guests will be headed from the Hub/Main Street to the exits,
which is in the opposite direction from where you are headed.

Below is a map of the parade route, on which you can pick from the Hub to Splash either via Liberty Square/Frontierland or through Adventureland.

Have fun!

I would be a little cautious about how far up Main Street you watch the show from, though. Travel time once you're through the crowd isn't an issue, but getting to an open space might take a while if you're on the far side of Main Street and closer to the station than the Hub.

Just to be safe, you might want to gravitate to the Frontierland side of Mainstreet than the Tomorrowland side.

They don't give you that long of a grace period if you are late for your FP (Its more like 5 minutes, if any, and they may not even give you that). HOWEVER, you have plenty of time. Wishes is maybe 15 minutes long at most. I would walk around the side toward Crystal Palace and thru Adventureland then take the shortcut by the Dole Whip stand over to where Country Bears is and go to Splash from there.

Actually this isn't true. Built into the system is a 5 minute early and 15 minute late grace period.

It is for sure 15 min after. We use it a lot
 
Also, I can't imagine you will actually need a FP+ for Splash at 10:30 or so.

Wednesday night the SB line at Splash was 50 minutes at 11:30. It was a) hot b) a midnight close and c) EMH night, but these summer night are what Splash was made for.

OP didn't say they were traveling soon, so it might be a mute point. But even at 60 days out, that's early October, where it can still be plenty hot.

It said 11 PM close. You may be correct though. I don't do summers.
