After trying for a while I have completely given up on getting a FP for wishes or the festival of fantasy parade. Neither DS nor DH will wait for more than 20 minutes.
Any tips on locations for viewing either with minimal wait on a crowd 5 day?
DS is only 40 inches tall!
Watch the FoF parade deep in Frontierland, past Country Bears, or
near Hall of Presidents.
You didn't mention Main St. Electrical Parade, MK's lighted nighttime parade.
It can be seen from those same places.
Just know that FoF STARTS at the end of Frontierland, so if you are there it begins
at the time listed.
MSEP starts on Main St. so it won't reach the end of Frontierland until about 28 minutes
after its start-time.
Also...
You want to be able to see the spectacular show that is actually projected on the front of the Castle, "Celebrate the Magic," which begins about 15 minutes before the fireworks.
So, you really need to be somewhere on Main Street or the Hub, where you can
see the front of the Castle.
And, for that you'll need to break your "no more than 20 minutes" rule.
That's just the way it is.
Below is a "work-in-progress" of my overview of the new Hub.
Some of the "outer" sidewalks shown have not been built yet.
Some of the unfinished areas have since been finished.
Again, a work-in-progress, all the way around.
