Strollers in Fastpass Viewing Areas

[tiggerrr]

Are strollers permitted in the Fastpass viewing areas for MSEP or Illuminations?

 

[subtchr]

Yes, I was in both areas this past week, and there were strollers in both.

I am sorry to ask this again but I still not sure about the FP we have.
We have FP for MSEP and wishes fire work.
I do understand they are in different locations.
We are 2 adults and a double stroller with a 2 and a 3 years old that is on the autism spectrum.
I read that the FP MSEP location is not good for fire work viewing.
Is the noise of the fire works way less from the wishes FP location? I am afraid my 3 years old will freak out. I will be taking her headphone with us but...
How long the MSEP last?
The FP area for wishes closes at 8 pm. Will we be able to make on time from MSEP FP area to wishes FP area considering a double stroller?
We don't really care about loosing the FP to a day attractions but really hope to have a good view of MSEP and wishes fire work show.
Thank you for any help.

1. I read that the FP MSEP location is not good for fire work viewing.

2. Is the noise of the fire works way less from the wishes FP location? I am afraid my 3 years old will freak out. I will be taking her headphone with us but...

3. How long the MSEP last?

4. The FP area for wishes closes at 8 pm. Will we be able to make on time from MSEP FP area to wishes FP area considering a double stroller?

1. Actually, I just had an MSEP FP on Friday, and stayed there to watch Celebrate the Magic. I planned to watch Wishes, also, but there were technical difficulties with the audio that delayed it almost an hour, and I couldn't stay. (Don't worry -- I have seen wishes probably 30-40 times, and this is the first time something like that happened, so it's not likely.) It was a fine view of CtM and would have been a good view of Wishes, too. Of course, they take the ropes down that define the FP area after the parade passes, and it does get a bit crowded.

2. Maybe a little, but it's not significantly different from closer to the castle, in my opinion. Pretty loud either place.

3. It passes by the FP area in about 20 minutes.

4. What do you mean it "closes" at 8:00 pm? What day are you going? Is that the time that Wishes starts?

With your child's potential issues, to be honest I would not use the FP. I think it would be better to have more flexibility to move around and choose where YOU think is best.

I believe I read that they will allow you to enter the wishes FP area only until 8 pm.

Ok. I have made my mind.
Will give the wishes FP away and keep the MSEP.

Will also have a headset handy if my daughter gets too stressed with noises.

Thank you so much!!!

Oh, one more question.
The town square area is close to exit the park right?

 

[icesk8abc]

Yes. You will be much closer to the exit from the parade viewing area than you would be from the Wishes FP+ area. It isn't a huge distance until you add the crowds that will surround you and move at a crawl. We avoid this by hanging out for a bit after Wishes, but for a faster escape, I would stay near the parade viewing area.

Thanks. We've got a little one with us for our May trip and we aren't sure how he's going to do with some of the evening entertainment despite having afternoon naps. But, he will sleep in a stroller.

Thank you all! We will do FP for MSEP only.
