Seeing wishes fireworks from Wilderness Lodge?

[Mama Lo]

I am jumping out of my skin with excitement, we are surprising my two boys and my nephews with a trip in about 30 hours!!!

My kids are very accustom to being up late or waking up early. My nephew on the other hand are early to bed early to rise.

We are going to try to catch the Electrical Parade at 9 but I don't think we will make it until 10.

If we leave right after the parade is there somewhere at the WL to see the wishes fireworks?

If it helps we are staying CL so will have access to Old Faithful.

Thanks so much.

I haven't heard of any locations from the Lodge itself where you can see the fireworks. I've read that you can see them from the northern end of the WL Cast Member parking lot.

We are staying for the first time in 10 days. Can you get a decent fireworks view from the beach?

This is a really bad place to view fireworks. I tried to see them from there but the trees had gotten too big and there were too many vines growing all over the fence to get a good view.

We'll be there in nine days.

The beach is a really good place to see them, especially close to the marina end of the beach. There are beach chairs you can sit on, too. And the Electrical Water Parade comes by at 9:35pm and sometimes the fireworks and parade happen at the same time.

7th floor, woods view rooms, Northside, even numbered rooms are your best bets to see Wishes from your balcony. We request that at the time of booking and then again when checking in to make sure. If not, the Boat Dock, not the Marina, is a pretty good location. From the Beach you can see the highest of the fireworks but not a full on view of it all

You can get an amazing view of the Wishes fireworks from any of the boats on the water in front of the park, I recommend booking the Pirates and Pals Cruise for this it is a reasonable price and fun for kids and adults and there are snacks before boarding the boats, all the music and narration is clearly heard on board too and the view is amazing. The cruise is done from the Contemporary Resort so easy to get to from the Wilderness Lodge too plus you will find the whole show amazing to watch from this vantage point you will see all of the fireworks launching from the different areas of the park culminating in the scenes the imagineers had planned out from the beginning and no huge crowds blocking the view or standing on your toes. I have also read that the view from the rooms at the North side of the Wilderness Lodge can be blocked by the tree growth since they are becoming taller every year, some folks watch from down near the beach area at Fort Wilderness Camp Grounds but the CR and BLT buildings also reduce visibility. Hope you have fun where ever you watch them from.
