What is my best course of action to get good viewing spots for the nightly fireworks. It seems everytime we find a spot we get pushed around and stepped on by inconsiderate people. I see there is no longer a LL option for premium seating. Is there a area that they condine off if we arrive early enough?
 
They aren’t managing crowd control as well anymore. They used to keep more walkways open, and not let 1,000 people arriving 2 minutes before showtime in to crowd a 20’ x 8’ space between the white box areas (they’d let a reasonable number of people in and then close again). They used to not let people stop on the middle of the bridges after showtime… they used to enforce that type of stuff more strongly. No matter how early we arrive and where we pick, they end up letting hundreds of people come smash us in and stand on our feet. Don’t remember that being typical 5-10 years ago. I don’t remember getting food and drinks smooshed and spilt on us all the time. Seems par for the course now.

Yeah! It's rough in there. I won't risk it with little kids. We've been doing a fireworks viewing dessert party for the last few years. No one really needs a smorgasbord of unlimited mediocre sweets, but it provides a reserved spot with no one pushing or elbowing me or my children. There are some decent spots outside of the hub and even outside of the park, but the view has limitations.

There is nothing wrong with your memory. It's definitely worse. It makes me think of a mosh pit, and I'm definitely too old for that.

agree, we stay at FW, in most of our campsites we can hear them all and see the higher elevation shots, been to the MK fireworks several times back in 2003/04/05 but it got bad in 07, we are hobbit size, people have no respect, its all about me, never again
 
I watched from Tomorrowland when I was in MK 2 weeks ago. I have seen the projections enough and rather not be in that mob of people. It’s also on the resort tv.
