Welcome Back Jennifer!
I am super happy to help you! I just sailed on the Pirates & Pals Fireworks Voyage again last week. It is so awesome and you're going to have so much fun! Be sure to take a jacket with you as it could get a little chilly on the water that time of year.
I spoke with a super sweet Cast Member who gave me the current times for the Electrical Water Pageant:
- Polynesian Resort - 9 p.m. (If the fireworks are scheduled for 9 p.m., the EWP will be in position but will not start until the conclusion of the fireworks - this may delay the rest of the schedule by a few minutes)
- Grand Floridian Resort - 9:15 p.m.
- Wilderness Lodge - 9:35 p.m.
- Fort Wilderness Resort - 9:45 p.m.
- Contemporary Resort / Bay Lake Towers 10:10 p.m. (If the fireworks are scheduled for 10 p.m. the EWP will begin at the conclusion of the fireworks)
- Magic Kingdom 10:20 p.m. (only during extended MK park hours)
You can always check with the a resort Concierge or Guest Relations to confirm the schedule. Please keep in mind that the EWP like all outdoor events could be cancelled due to inclement weather.
Because Wishes is scheduled at 8 p.m. on Dec 1st, you'll be back on the Bay Lake side of the Contemporary before the EWP begins on the Seven Seas Lagoon in front of the Polynesian at 9 p.m. so you won't get a chance to see it from the Pirates & Pals Fireworks Voyage. If the members of your party can stay awake (not sure if you're traveling with little ones), you could always hang out at the Contemporary for awhile after you meet your surprise guest waiting for you back on the dock after your voyage and watch it from there.
I'm sorry I don't have better news for you this time but please feel free to come back with any additional questions during your planning - its our pleasure to assist you! Wishing you many magical memories :-) Allison
