Where to watch MVMCP fireworks?
I'm not sure if this should be moved elsewhere since I am asking about outside of MK...
Where is the best place to see the MVMCP fireworks from outside of MK? Ideally within earshot of music or piped in, but not a deal breaker.
Thanks.

Party Fireworks shows begin at 9:30PM.
The Beach at the Polynesian Resort offers a great view
of Wishes and other MK Fireworks shows.
They do "pipe in" the audio of the shows.
There are several ground-level speakers along the
sidewalk.
They also pipe the audio to the speakers at the Poly pool.
The audio level if better in some places (closer to the sidewalk, for instance) than others (far out on the beach, for instance.)
To find the "sweet spot" for viewing, stroll along the sidewalk until the Cinderella Castle comes into full view.
-----------------------------
More Viewing Spots-
You can see them from TTC (they pipe-in the audio from
the show) but you are not allowed to stand in the
Ferry loading area.
You can see them from the boat-dock and an outside
observation deck near Narcoossee's restaurant at the
Grand Floridian. Anyone can stand on Narcoossee's Deck.
The outside deck is not a part of the actual restaurant. (All serving is done inside.)
The deck is accessed from the sidewalk outside the restaurant.
Also, good viewing from the Patio overlooking the Marina.
The sound of the show is piped into these areas too.
At the Contemporary, there is viewing on an outdoor
observation area on the 4th floor.
The California Grill observation areas are reserved for patrons that day of the Grill or Bar.
At Wilderness Lodge, the "secret place" to watch the MK fireworks is from the northern area of the Cast Member (CM) Parking Lot.
At the Fort Wilderness Campgrounds Marina, some of the view (especially of the "Fantasyland" pyro) is blocked by the now unused Discovery Island in Bay Lake and by the high-rise buildings of the Contemporary Resort.
But, the view from the Ft. Wilderness' sand beach (farther north) is more open.
Still the tree-level can block the views of the lower-firing pyro.
As for viewing from INSIDE the dining area of restaurants
(you usually need ADRs for most, and they are usually busy during the shows)...
you can see (and hear) them at California Grill at Contemporary,
'Ohana at Poly, Narcoossee's at the Grand Floridian,
and (if you have access there) the Top of the World at Bay Lake Tower.

The Contemporary is a great spot

Our favorite out of park spots to watch wishes is the poly beach or CR 4th floor observation deck.

We watched from the observation deck at CR last night. It really was an amazing view (and show). I think the speakers were not working, the music was so faint. So went went up the stairs to have our own private observation deck.
Thanks for the tips! This was great!
