Can you see the Disneyland fireworks from Downtown Disney?

Can you see the Disneyland fireworks from Downtown Disney? We won't be able to go to the park at night but would love to see the fireworks.

Kinda of but it's not great. But if you are down toward the DLH end of DTD you can see a less obstructed view from the bridge over Disneyland Dr.

Just keep in mind that a lot of the show is down low and can only be seen in the park.

We had a pretty good view of the fireworks from the open area between the two parks - it was possibly even better than the view we had inside the park. You can't see the lower ones, but the higher fireworks give a clear view.

Yes you can see some, we saw them as we were leaving the park and heading toward the trams, and could still see them from the Mickey & Friends parking structure. You can even see the high ones from the Los Sanchez restaurant all the way on Garden Grove Blvd. which is a good 10-12 minutes away.

If you want to see fireworks then yes you will see some from Downtown Disney, but if you want to see the greatest fireworks show on Earth then this can only be seen from inside the park and with a "front of the castle" view due to the music sync and other castle effects.

When you are away from all that and especially the music the fireworks sound extremely loud, like you're in the middle of a battlefield.

best places to watch the fireworks outside the park... alot of people sit on the floor between disneyland and california adventures... another good spot is the top level of the mickey and friends parking lot. Pardise pier hotel also has a balcony u can go and watch the fireworks if i'm not mistaken its on the third floor. I have never tried it but i hear thats a good spot too. I really like watching them from infront of disneyland and the parking structure.

What hotel are you staying at?

The night we arrived at DL we were able to view the fireworks unobstructed from S. Harbor BLVD (Second floor of PVI).

Depending on where you stay, you might have a good view from the hotel (ask someone at the front desk for pointers!)

There's a pretty good view down by House of Blues.

Yes to both. For PPH it's the north end of the 3rd floor pool deck. Not nearly as close as M&F, but they pipe in the music so that helps.

We are staying at Anaheim Marriott. I don't think we can see them from there.
