Is Illuminations worth seeing?

[dotcomgirl18]

My sister and I are visiting Disney World this August. We have been to Disney more times than we can count, but surprisingly enough we have NEVER seen Illuminations. I guess it's because we are hardcore on riding the rides and going nonstop. It's funny though, because we LOVE Wishes and Fantasmic!

So... Is Illuminations worth it? Should we plan to see it during our upcoming trip?

Of course, I can only speak for myself, but, sometimes I think Illuminations is the main reason I go to WDW. I really love the representations of the Earth being "born" and evolving into different countries/ cultures. The music and the visuals make me tear up every time. Just me being me, I guess, but I think it's beautiful.

Absolutely! Love, love Illuminations. There is something magical when they blow out the lights around World Showcase...and the music is amazing. I get a little weepy every time I see it.

Illuminations is my favorite night time show I definitely see it once every time I go. I say you need to see it at least once and then judge it for yourself after.

My favorite firework display anywhere. Usually see the Christmas version but the regular is pretty much the same and just as worth seeing.

There's a grey goose slushie stand?!

There's a grey goose slushie stand?!

YES! and they are necessary in the hot summer around Illuminations time.

Check this out. Slushies for Grown Ups.

YES! and I always watch it near the grey goose slushie stand.

Oh yeah! My favorite viewing spot is close enough to get seconds, maybe thirds! (they really need a third flavor)

Oh, I see they do have another, but only during F&W. That time of year isnt typically good for us, but I hope we can make it then one year.

YES it's a must for us!

 

[Mousemommy1]

Yes!! The music is amazing and it's a great show!

Wishes is our favorite but IllumiNations is a close second.

I'm not as attached to Illuminations as many are, but you should absolutely see it at least once.

Definitely a not to be missed kind of thing. It's Spectacular!
