Which fireworks show for a big group?

If you have a bunch of family going, is it easier to find good viewing spots for Illuminations or Wishes?

Wishes is so high up in the sky, you can see it from anywhere in the Magic Kingdom. There are also some great spots -- like on the bridge between the castle and tomorrowland -- that don't go until later, so that's gettable.

Illuminations really needs to be seen from the front row to get it all, so I'd pick Wishes over Illuminations for a big group.

I agree with Wishes..it can be seen from pretty much everywhere.

Although a great alternative is to book an ADR at Rose and Crown or the new Mexico place and have a front row seat and yummy food.

One thing I will say that Illuminations has going for it is that you don't have to see it from any particular angle. Wishes definitely looks best from the front IMO.

I like Wishes so much more than Illuminations that I won't be able to answer this question fairly! But I'm going to answer anyway.

Wishes. Smile

Additional note: not that I don't think Illuminations is good, because it certainly is a spectacular show. But nothing can beat the magic of Wishes Smile
