This trip I was lucky enough to find 2 new favorite spots for watching parades. The first was in MK in front of the Christmas Shop in Liberty Square, thanks to @MR FERRET. The second spot was in AK quite by chance traffic jammed up by the Dawa Bar so we just stepped in grabbed a seat and a drink and had a great view of the parade. Do you have a favorite spot for watching any of the Disney parades?

I like the watch the MK Christmas Parade near the Town Square Hub where the fake snow falls. Then I like to watch my dear Spectro xoxo :(:(:( near the Christmas Shoppe too or any parade at night in that matter. I like to watch CADCT or other daytime parades near the Castle Hub, but I hardly ever watch CADCT though.

My favorite place to watch the 3pm parade is in front of the Pillory Stocks in Liberty Square. I like to see it coming over the bridge there and head towards Frontierland. My favorite spot for Main Street Electrical Parade is in front of the Main Street Cinema. The music is LOUD, the opening/closing music windows line up perfectly with when the parade arrives/leaves, and it's just plain fun! The other great place to watch MSEP is in the hub just to the left of the castle. It makes for a great photo opp since the floats look so good in front of the castle late at night.

My favorite place is on or in an attraction. Sorry, but I just don't see the fasination with parades. It's hot, you have to be there early to get a good view, you almost always have to put up with a couple of rude people, and it's pretty much the same thing all the time.

The balcony of the train station is my favorite spot, but I've only actually seen one parade from there and that was MSEP. We had to sit down along the railing so early for that. I was pregnant so I welcomed a long rest, but I couldn't swing that now with a little one.

Nah, we just watch it where ever we can. But for the AK parade we like to hide inside little sitting areas with roofs and watch from across the river. But we just discovered this last year so, I can't say its a favorite quite yet ;)

I think all MK parades look the best on Main Street, lol. But that's just a silly, personal thing. It doesn't really matter.

AK...no preference. At all.

I don't watch parades at DHS. When I did, I liked to be on whatever that main road is that goes from the entrance to the BAH.

MSEP, wait for the second showing and you can grab a nice location in the hub. Last trip we got perfect spots looking right at the castle and were able to get some awesome pics!

When we were there a few weeks back, we stood in front of the Plaza for the parade/fireworks. It wasn't the best viewing spot for the parade but afterwards we wasted enough time to sit front row on Main Street for the 2nd parade. Had never done that before, but will always from now on! Also, when we were there 2 years ago, we stood near the bridge crossing into Liberty Square for the daytime parade, and that was the best place possible since they don't let anyone stand actually on the bridge our view was unobstructed!
