    If we wanted to view the fireworks from the comfort of our room. Which resort would we wanna stay in and how would we book a room to make sure we had a fireworks view?

    Welcome to planDisney, Danielle!

    I’m so glad you stopped by to discuss one of the things Walt Disney World Resort does best - nighttime spectaculars! For me, no magical vacation is complete without at least one viewing of both Happily Ever After and Fantasmic! Although Fantasmic! can exclusively be enjoyed by Guests of Disney’s Hollywood Studios, both Luminous The Symphony of Us and Happily Ever After are visible from several Disney Resort Hotels. 

    My husband and I recently enjoyed a stay in a Theme Park View Room at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, and let me tell you something, Danielle. Seeing the sky explode in color over Magic Kingdom Park from the comfort of your Disney Resort hotel room is a completely different experience than watching the display from inside the theme park. It truly feels like a private show orchestrated just for you. The best part? You can catch the show in your pajamas and then drift off to sleep as the Electrical Water Pageant floats by!

    Happily Ever After can also be seen from Theme Park View rooms at Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, and Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa while a Water or BoardWalk View Room at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn will provide views of Luminous The Symphony of Us. Please keep in mind that you’ll need to book a room category specified as Theme Park View or Water/BoardWalk View to ensure you receive one of these highly sought-after views.

    Since you’re prioritizing fireworks, I definitely suggest requesting a room on a higher floor for optimal viewing. This process can conveniently be completed during the Online Check-In process or by calling Disney Resort Hotel Reservations. While requests are not guaranteed, in my experience, Cast Members make every effort to accommodate requests when possible. 

    I hope this information was helpful, Danielle, and that you are watching fireworks from the comfort of your very own Disney Resort hotel room soon!
