We just returned after being in the parks for two days, and I thought I would share this tip for upcoming visitors who may not be aware of this - we were not! On Monday night people were staking out spots in front of the castle, in the hub and along Main Street well in advance of the fireworks, we saw this as we were on our way to the tea cups. After riding, we sort of walked back to that area and came upon a CM dressed in business attire. She asked us if we were looking for a spot from which to watch fireworks and we said we were. She mentioned that you can get a good view of fireworks and the projections at IASW. She said many people do not know that - we sure didn't! So we went over there and were able to find a spot - we could have found an even better spot if we had known about it and gone over there earlier. Spectacular! We could see the fireworks so well and the projections are shown on the face of IASW. It was pretty magical when it started snowing during a portion of it.

If you want a good view of the fireworks and projections, you may want to plan on viewing from IASW. Hope this info may be helpful to someone.
 
Great tip, were most people who were at a Small World standing or sitting on the ground to watch the fireworks and projections?

Both! If you look at the map on the Disneyland app, we sat on the stairs of the "platform" located between Le Petite Chalet Gifts and IASW. Sort of between Le Petite and Fantasy Faire Gifts. People were sitting on the ground to the right of Fantasy Faire Gifts facing IASW. We would go to that spot/area again without question!

We did this last week, as we figured we wouldn't be able to get a good place in front of the castle with the limited time we had. It isn't perfect, because the fireworks are over to the left and the projections are on IASW so you're not look at both at the same time as you would be at the castle. But, if you go into it understanding this, it's perfectly fine.
