Epcot Fireworks from Boardwalk?

[ladyraven]

It was suggested that the Epcot fireworks may be too noisy for my 3 yr olds. I know Boardwalk is across a lake from Epcot, could we see them from there?

Are non-residents allowed at Boardwalk and would there be plenty to keep the toddlers entertained as well as a 15 yr old?

Sorry for all the questions!

Anyone is allowed to go to the Boardwalk, they sometimes have jugglers and other street entertainers but I'm not sure there is much for toddlers to do, hopefully someone else can advise you on that?

You can see SOME of the Epcot fireworks from the Boardwalk area, but only those up in the sky - you miss the ones at lake level and being able to see the globe, which is one of the main parts of the whole thing. Depending on where you are, you may not be able to hear any of the music either.

We loved being able to see the higher fireworks from our Yacht Club balcony, but we had to go into the park at least twice to see them properly.
