Me personally? I would not want the dinner to take away too much party time. And the dinner is now even more expensive that it has gone to prix fixe so it would be $$ on top of $$$ IMO.Quick question. Would you take the time for a BOG reservation at 8:25 on a party night? Or do you think dinner would take too long and be a waste of party time?!
I agree with Rob and think that would be a waste of time and cutting it close for the fireworks. I wouldn’t want to risk not being able to get to the hub in time. I love having the fireworks surround you.Quick question. Would you take the time for a BOG reservation at 8:25 on a party night?

Counterpoint: I've had dinner at BOG on the 4th of July and it was wondrous to be standing on that bridge into the BOG restaurant with the multitude of fireworks exploding right overhead. It was better than all fireworks I've experienced sans perhaps EPCOT's Illumination's holiday tag.I agree with Rob and think that would be a waste of time and cutting it close for the fireworks.

This sounds like a major misstep in allowing too many media folks into one event. I'd be surprised if it happens again. I would have complained, honestly, and I rarely ever take the time to.
I watched the Fourth of July Fireworks near this location (just past the gateway into New Fantasyland) and agree it's wondrous! Maybe the best fireworks experience I've had anywhere! If Holiday Wishes had more castle projections, watching it in front of the castle would be a no brainer, but since it doesn't I don't think that location is as important.Counterpoint: I've had dinner at BOG on the 4th of July and it was wondrous to be standing on that bridge into the BOG restaurant with the multitude of fireworks exploding right overhead.

This is a tough one! We love BOG but this is during prime party time. What are your priorities for the party? If you did have dinner at this time I would leave yourself an hour. You could see fireworks from that side of the castle and still get in some of the shows before you dine. I think it's doable if you have your heart set on BOG. You could also keep trying to find an earlier BOG ADR time.......they might surface at the 48-24 hour mark!Quick question. Would you take the time for a BOG reservation at 8:25 on a party night?

So, we had a change in our party plan, and am looking for some suggestions for good a spot that we could see the Holiday Wishes fireworks from Main Street and then just hang for the 2nd parade. We will have a stroller and 2 ECV's in our group of 7. The plan is to go FROM the Hub from the 8:15 Frozen Holiday Wish, over to the 8:35 Totally Tomorrowland Christmas, and then into Main Street to stake out the spot for the 10 pm fireworks and parade. Part of group will stop over at Club Tinsel for just a little bit and then re-join us at our spot. Following the parade, we would like to try to hit Jack/Sally at TST, if they don't shut down the line, right after the parade before closing. The ECV's are not for permanent problems, but recent foot surgeries preventing walking 10 miles every day. Could we find the parade spot, park the ECV's there, slide into the street for fireworks, and then go back to ECV's for the parade viewing? I've never had to deal with them, so I'm anticipating having trouble viewing the angles of the fireworks from the sidewalk (on the ECV's) or people standing in the way....but then also maneuvering them to face the castle and then try to k-turn or whatever on the sidewalk to face the street for the parade? Both the DW and my mom want to stay on Main Street for these two events for atmosphere, so I'm not sure how the flagpole area would work, even if a spot was there (but given from what I've seen here, at that time, without staking it out earlier, there probably wouldn't be any.) Thoughts and advice are greatly appreciated.
I'm so bummed! Got on tonight to purchase tickets for Tony's Most Merriest and they are all sold out for December 11th. That makes me a little scared for crowds that night too! Okay, just breathe and enjoy right?

What time can you start buying party merchandise?
That picture was awesome! It looks like maybe you were a little off center at the flagpole which I think is a great place.....I love seeing that beautiful castle in the background!Review coming tonight but Tony's was worth it for us. It was freezing on Friday night (11/16) & it was great to be able to go back in after the parade to have hot chocolate eaiwfir the crowds to leave before tackling the monorail. Trying to add a picture... may have to wait until tonight...
