At the end of November the park closes at 1900 and the fireworks start.
If I book dinner in either Beavers Creek/Hunters Grill or Cape Cod for 2000 will I have left myself enough time or will it be too much of a rush to watch Illuminations, window shop a bit and walk back through the village for dinner?

Hello!

I have never seen the Christmas version of Illuminations (though I suppose no-one ever has!) but we found regular illuminations to be just a tad shorter than dreams and found it to be around 18 minutes long.

If you want to stand further down mainstreet to watch or near the entrance to one of the arcades for speedy exit and you leave when the main show finishes I reckon you'll be fine. If you sit smack bang in front of the castle, stay to watch the end projections and music (used to be butterflies and a cute song, don't recall what it is now) and then mosey through all the shops you're not making that reservation  :P .

Hope that helps!
