Later Afternoon and Evening Plan
Visit World Showcase beginning with Canada. Finish by riding Gran Fiesta Tour in Mexico

IllumiNations
IllumiNations is the nightly entertainment at Epcot, scheduled at 9pm most nights. For the
best spots, arrive 30-45 minutes before the start of the show. The problem you may run in-
to when looking for a spot is that certain sections are roped off for private parties that have
spent big bucks to get a prime spot on the water. So you may need a backup plan.
Best Spots
1. Base of the World Showcase directly across from the United States Pavilion. This

“front of house” view is elevated with a direct view of the globe and fireworks.
This area may be partially reserved for FastPass+.

2. The next best spot is the bridge connecting the UK and France. It can't be reserved

and the IllumiNations cruisers will stop below you, enjoying a similar view.

3. The Italy Isola, or raised section across from Italy. Parts can be reserved, but the

viewing location behind the seated guests is almost as good.

4. The stretch from Mexico to Norway is good. Areas closer to Norway have fewer

people.
