Wishes Fireworks

Is there actually VIP seating that can be purchased for Wishes? We always have problems finding just the right place to view the show and have tried many different venues throughout MK, the Polynesian, Ferry dock, train station platform, front of Crystal Palace, Rose Garden, etc. and just can't seem to find the "perfect" spot. We haven't had this problem at Epcot or MGM ... just wondered about VIP seating for MK Wishes. Thanks in advance!

If you purchase a "Platinum" vacation package, the following is part of the perks included in that deluxe combo of tickets, recreation, dining, and overall service.

Access to preferred viewing areas* for:*One viewing per Theme Park, voucher required. Advance reservations are required at least 24 hours prior and can be made up to 90 days prior to viewing date by calling XXXXX. Subject to availability, certain block-out dates apply. (One certificate per person)

The perfect spot in on main street between Casey's and the Plaza Ice Cream. However, it's also everyone else's perfect spot, so it'll be crowded.

If you can buy a preferred spot it would be very expensive. Getting it as part of a package as mentioned above, might be the best method, if you can afford it.

I think that some of the "Dreams" that are granted each day are for VIP seating/space at the nighttime fireworks shows, so maybe you'd be lucky to get a "Dream".

Casey's is our favorite spot, but get there early. We got lucky last time, and just walked right up at the starting time.

I like things symmetrical, so my favorite spot to watch Wishes is smack in the middle of Main Street between Casey's and the ice cream parlor. Standing in front of Casey's or the ice cream parlor (or the Plaza resturant) work well, too.

A few weeks ago, we watched on an angle from the path out of the rose garden back to Main Street. Tink was pretty close to us. It wasn't symmetrical, but it was still a great unobstructed view.

I definitely think that in the middle of Mainstreet between Casey's and the ice cream parlor is the best spot too.
