Hello Lori! Welcome Back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel.
Whether you decide on the
Fireworks Dessert Party with Plaza Garden Viewing or the
Fireworks Dessert Party at Tomorrowland Terrace, you're in for added treats.
I recently took in Wishes nighttime spectacular in a crowded area near The Plaza Restaurant and watched with jealousy as the crowd in Tomorowland Terrace munched on their chocolate covered strawberries and cupcakes. They seemed very relaxed!
The difference between the two Fireworks Dessert Party offerings is that about 10 minutes before the fireworks are scheduled to start, a Cast Member escorts the plaza-viewing group to a reserved Plaza Garden area in front of Cinderella Castle. The group that I saw, sat on the ground and did not have chairs. Those who remained in Tomorrowland Terrace could choose to sit or stand within the restaurant to view the fireworks as they pleased.
Lori, the choice you make is between view and comfort. If the most important aspect of the experience is the view and sitting on the ground is not a concern for you, then choose the Fireworks Dessert Party with Plaza Garden Viewing. If you require or would prefer to sit in a chair, then choose the Fireworks Dessert Party at Tomorrowland Terrace.
I also recommend speaking to a Cast Member and inquiring if there is a possibility of having a chair in the Plaza Garden or if there is a suitable space to stand. Disney Cast Members use their
Endless Magic to accommodate the needs and comfort of their guests whenever possible.
Have a Magical Vacation!
