    Default Illuminations from CBR?

    A few years ago we stayed at the Pop and were able to view most of the Illuminations show from our room, which was great. Does anyone know if you can see the fireworks from CBR? If so, anything special I should know? Maybe a certain set of rooms that are facing the correct direction?

    Thanks in advance for any helpful information.

    I am not sure about the building but if you go to the bridge at the main pool at 9PM you will be able to see just about the whole show. When we stayed there 2 years ago we could see and hear all except the very low parts of the show. Enjoy your stay!

    When we stayed in Trinidad North, you could see a lot of the show while in the quiet pool.

    We could hear it from the beach in front of our room but couldn't see the fireworks. We didn't think about going over to the bridge to view it. Wish we had. We were just enjoying lying in the hammocks on the beach and enjoying the night.

    You can see some. I have yet to see it all and have stayed there 4 times.

    The fireworks in Illuminations are only a tiny fraction of the show, and the fireworks are all that can be seen from outside Epcot.

    From CBR, you will see fireworks, but you won't see the giant globe with video, the fire effects, the water effects, and the light effects. It's not an all-fireworks show like WIshes, that can be seen in its entirety from outside the park.

    In order to see Illuminations, you need to be inside Epcot, with a decent line of sight to the World Showcase lagoon, where the show takes place.

    I just didn't want newcomers reading this thread to think that you can actually see the show itself from CBR.
