The Best Place to Watch Wishes at Magic Kingdom
Below I'm going to deliver my thoughts and opinions on the best spots to view Wishes at Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World.
The perfect spot mostly relies on whatever the person/ group of people is considering to do afterwards. For instance, it's no good for a person that wants to make a rapid exit from the park, to view the show from Fantasyland. But then again observing the show from a place not far from the park exit and wishing to stay in the park for a couple of hours after is a waste of a good chance to get closer to the show. For this reason, before making the decision, determine where you are going once the fireworks have ended.
If You Wish to Be Closer to the Fireworks.
So I can understand that some of my readers may totally forget exactly how risky fireworks can be and get so excited about being at the Magic Kingdom, that they actually want to be a part the show! (Only a joke. You are definitely safe at all the Disney parks). However if you wish to get a real up close view, then the castle area is best for you.
The Hub is a circular section area in front of the Castle that links all of the lands with each other. Now, I've seen Wishes in every spot imaginable. The Hub, Main Street, Fantasyland, the Grand Floridian, Bay Lake Tower, Fort Wilderness Campground beach, Frontierland, the Polynesian Resort beach, around the back of the park at Disney University, and in lots of hidden places that Guests don't generally get to go. Out of every one of these locations, in the front section of the Hub is without a doubt the worst!
The main reason why I don't like being in the front spot, and by that I mean between Walt and Mickey's "Partners" statue and Cinderella Castle, is mainly because the castle will completely block the view of the main fireworks. One time I had just finished eating dinner at Cinerella's Royal Table (a restaurant inside the castle) and my group found ourselves extremely close to the castle to watch the show. Not only did I miss half the fireworks, but I had a tremendous crick in my neck from having to look directly above me. I certainly did not have a magical time!
The Best Place to Watch The Fireworks.
All that being said, so long as you stay towards the back of the Hub you will enjoy the greatest experience possible. Although I do suggest that you stay towards the right of the Castle to get a far better view when a certain fairy flies through the sky.
For me personally, as well as numerous others, the ideal place to watch Wishes is from the seating area just outside the Plaza Ice Cream Parlor at the Castle end of Main Street (it will be on a park map if you're not sure of where it is). If you get seats there you will have a fantastic view of all parts of the show. Even so, I would suggest that you get there a few of hours before the show.
