Where to watch HalloWishes OUTSIDE the park?

[Millie Mouse]

I do not plan to splurge on MNSSHP tickets but I wondered if anyone can reccommend a decent place to watch the HalloWishes fireworks from outside the park on a party night? Also, I wondered if the restaurants that pipe in the Wishes music also pipe in this special music? I once saw Wishes from a lucky timing ride on the boat to the MK from dinner at WL and the view was awesome! Can't plan on timing that right again though.

The Polynesian Beach. Watching from a lounge chair with a Dole Whip in hand is simply epic.

Sounds great, Can you see any of the castle from there or just the fireworks above the castle? I keep hearing about Dole Whips and I'm going to have to try one!

You can see the castle from the TTC loading dock, also a good place. Another spot is from the Contemporary / BLT bridge, although there you are off to the side so you don't get the whole effect, on the other hand you are much closer than the Poly beach or the TTC.

You can see the castle. The Poly is directly across the lagoon from it.

All Great spots

The preceding replies give excellent viewing of Hollowishes firework display.
Personally, we love watching from Poly beach as mentioned.:sohappy:

You can even watch them (with a somewhat limited view...no castle) in front of the park entrance. I've seen a few people do that.

Top of the Contemporary is a great place too. From the viewing platforms connected to the California Grill.

Great suggestion just 1 problem, you need the Cali. Grill ADR to get up there. Could also do the 4th floor viewing area at the Contemporary as well. I do have to agree that the Poly beach is the best spot. Loading dock at the TTC you also get the music piped in.

Ditto. I would add a handful of mickey cheddar crackers or a shortbread cookie or two.

Nothing better than sitting on the beach at the Poly with a drink in hand and watching wishes or hallowishes .

Do a lot of people go to the poly to watch this?
