Hello, Jessica! I love your question because
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa is one of my favorite places to watch Happily Ever After (the Magic Kingdom fireworks)! I’ve got a great recommendation for you!
The place from which you’ll get the best views of Happily Ever After is from the marina located just outside of
Gasparilla Island Grill. There is a clear line of sight to Cinderella Castle. Guests tend to gather here about 10 – 15 minutes before the start of the fireworks show. Jessica, the start time for Happily Ever After varies by date. In a few more weeks,
check this link for Happily Ever After. It will display the fireworks start time for the date of your September visit! You can then plan around that time.
When you exit 1900 Park Fare, walk straight ahead to the exit doors. Once outside, turn left and make the short walk over to the marina and Gasparilla Island Grill. My wife and I like to buy drinks from the cold case in Gasparilla Island Grille before the fireworks begin. The kids have always enjoyed some of the amazingly decorated and delicious cupcakes. Then we find our seats outside, and we’re ready to enjoy the Happily Ever After fireworks show.
Jessica, the soundtrack that accompanies the fireworks show is played in this area so that Guests can enjoy the experience!
Dreams do come true!
