Which of the two firework shows are meant to be better?


The happy ever after NYE spectacular over at the studios or the NYE fireworks over lake Disney?


We can't decide which ones to go and see.

I'd see the studios since its incredibly rare for them to have a show over there


As for better? I've not been too impressed with the recent Lake Disney shows.

Thank you for the help!

No one seems to know which of the shows will be the one to see tomorrow.

I asked at the concierge at hotel NY earlier and was assured there were fireworks in tomorrow's dreams and that will be the best show. I told her there aren't any fireworks in dreams tomorrow to which she laughed and said that there is so I knew her opinion was invalid 

Think we are going to opt for the studios rather than Lake Disney. Hope it turns out to be the right choice!

Is this a new marketing switch for the resort in only doing specific New Year's entertainment in the Studios Park and Lake Disney. In previous years Disneyland Park has had specific New Year's entertainment too as well as the studios where as this year it is the normal Xmas entertainment schedule during the evening. I suppose it gives visitors wider choice of what they want to do which is always a good thing.


I'm looking forward to seeing what the never before seen Stars n Cars will be like and the Happy Ever After NY spectacular.

Hi All!
 
We are going to B.Bill tonight then staying in the Village for the lake fireworks. Iv not done the village before so hoping i will not be dissapointed.
 
Can anyone tell me if it is very busy in the Village for NYE and also is the sports bar and billy bobs etc still open after midnight so we can have a drink while we wait for the car park to quieten down?
 
Thanks

Ok just to confirm what happened here.

The stars and cars parade was very good,
I liked it. Some characters I hadn't seen before and they put on the best show they could considering the weather. (Cryella de vill particularly good)

Onto NYE:

Steakhouse reservations for the Nye dinner were an absolute nightmare, over 100
euros a head and people were standing queuing way past their reservation time (9:30) in the pouring rain. Not acceptable.

The fireworks for NYE of what there was
of them. We had a few sparklers over lake Disney and a very good display over the WDS.

The studio show was far superior here and that should have been made known to everyone that was attending.

Either way, both shows only lasted a matter of minutes, I have to day I
was expecting a much longer display.

Im not attacking DLP in anyway, believe me I love DLP as much as anyone and will defend it. But this NYE I just felt they could have done more, informing cast members of what was happening it seems would have helped!
