What time do I need to arrive on Main Street to get a spot (not a good spot...I don't need to be sitting on the curb...just a spot) for Paint the Night at 8:50 and Disneyland Forever at 9:30?

Hello Kelly! Thanks so much for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel. I hope you are having a magical week. If you don’t need a curbside seat, then you can show up as close as 10 minutes before the parades and still find a good viewing area. A little trick my family and I do… we often try to go to wherever the parade is starting at, then after it has passed that area and continuing on, you can hop over and enjoy some of the attractions close by while enjoying shorter lines as so many others will still be watching the parade. ;) I hope this helps and let me know if you have any other questions as you plan your visit! See you real soon! -Emily

Meet the Panelist: Emily, Colorado

I’m a wife and mom to three boys, ages 15, 10 and 6. My youngest is autistic so I love helping other special needs families plan Disney vacations and show them that they, too, can have a magical time together. In addition to being a total Disney fanatic, I am also a blogger who enjoys fashion, shopping and knitting. Learn More About Emily
