Wishes Dessert Party- seating?

[Jacks2583]

Can someone please clarify for me exactly WHERE the reserved seating is to watch Wishes? What kind of view is it? Can you see Magic, Memories and You? What about Tinkerbell?

Also can you see the parade?


Thanks!

Front corner of the Tomorrowland Terrace Noodle Station. It's a nice view of the castle & the fireworks will appear to the right of the castle. You can see the images on the castle, Tinkerbell will fly right over that area, but the parade is too distant to get a good view. Most people get up from their seats to stand at the railing, so don't expect to see from your table.

We were just at the Dessert Party Jan. 12 and had a wonderful time!! We went at 7:00 and the table they reserve for you is yours for the night (they put a reserved sign on the table with your name on it-pretty cool!!)
The parade is off to your left and you can see it pretty well. You'll have a great view of the castle and the images/fireworks, but you'll have to stand at the railing like everyone else does. Wave to Tink as she literally flies overhead and to your right! The desserts are very tasty and plentiful-we really enjoyed it. A very nice way to watch Wishes!!

How crowded is this party? Are we talking a few hundred people or fewer people?

If everyone gets up to go to the railing to see the fireworks, is there a roof over part of the railing such that those in the back need to be tall since looking up just provides a nice view of the roof instead of the sky?

I'm planning on taking my 2 older girls to this on our first night of our trip, but if they won't be able to see unless we're right up at the front of the railing (the younger of the 2 is on the small side anyway), I'm not sure they would be happy about things. I can't hold 2 of them in my arms at the same time and I don't think I can even hold the older one at all since she's 60 pounds.

I'm curious too. I booked in April. From the reviews I've read it only seems to be a small problem for a few people, most people state the view was great. I think the people with a great table right in front are upset (understandably) when others stand at the rail in front of them. It will be much easier with little one, than waiting for a spot an hour before. I think you will be fine, your girls will like to see Tink fly overhead.

We went to the dessert party this last December & loved it.

Parade: You can really only see the bigger floats at the parade so it isn't the best viewing spot for that. If this is important to you...you might want to see the parade another night.

Magic, Memories & You: We sat at our table & the view was awesome of this from here.

Tinkerbell: She flys by over that area...so that is neat.

Wishes: We had a table near the front & were able to sit & enjoy the entire fireworks. Everybody was polite & left a viewing area in front of the folks that remained seated at the party we went to. You aren't supposed to move chairs to the railing for safety sake for kiddos to stand in....& they announced that several times...but, I didn't see anybody having difficulty seeing everything though.

Crowds: The tables are placed so that you aren't crowded. I was really surpised as I thought we'd be packed in there & it was a really pleasant experience not to be.

Desserts: Everything was good...especially the choc covered strawberries & truffles.

Overall: I'd state this as a top experience for seeing the fireworks. Getting to enjoy them in an uncrowded area is awesome.

Thanks for the review! I'll definitely book it, then! I'll be stalking the ADR site starting on the first of March.
