Hi all,

just wanted to ask you all your opinions on where is it best to enjoy (in Oct/Nov 2011):

1. Magic Kingdom - Wishes.

2. Epcot - Illuminations.

3. Hollywood Studios - Fantasmic.

4. Magic Kingdom - Spectromagic.

5. Magic Kingdom - Mickey's Not so Scary Halloween.

6. Magic Kingdom - Mickey's Very Magical Christmas party.

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Sorry can't help you much with best places, we tend to just stand anywhere we are when they are on although at MK I like to stand infront of Crystal Palace for the fireworks.

Just wanted to say welcome to DISboards.

we try at get in the uk for illuminations as thats where we had our wedding party

wishes is the same as wayne in front of crystal palace

fantasmic anywhere in the theatre

spectromagic anywhere along the route is good for us

other two are parties so the things are all over the park

Like the others, I can only comment on the places we stand for these parades/fireworks as there are plenty of great viewing spots really.

Illuminations - as long as the wind isn't blowing in your face (as otherwise your view will be obscured by the smoke) and you haven't got overhanging trees or one of the islands in the way of where the globe sits, you're good. We normally choose either Canada or Norway when we watch.

Fantasmic - we don't do the dinner package because I don't like being in the end sections of the arena, so it means to get our choice of seats we have to get there early. Our personal preference is as near to the centre sections as possible and about halfway up, but we've had great views from various locations.

Spectromagic / ELP - we choose to stand somewhere in Liberty Square, not because the views are any better, but it's usually less jammed than on Main Street. And also we've probably just come out of Liberty Tree Tavern and are too full to walk any great distance!

For illuminations we like to be in mexico or over in japan.

For Wishes we like to be at the end of mainstreet near the flag pole.

For Hallowishes we like to be in the hub in front of the castle.

For the Halloween parade we like to grab a rocking chair in fronteerland and watch from there.

Never seen Fantasmic.

any of the other parades we tend to do the rides during these as the lines drop with people going off to watch the parades.
