I'm currently trying to plan for our trip to WDW. I'm traveling with dh, my nearly 5yo and 2yo, IL's and SIL. Date May 17-23/07.

You can look up parade and evening show times by going to the official Walt Disney World website. Look for "calendar" on the top right. The page will come up with MK calendar for March. Change to the park and month you want to look at, then click on the number of the actual date that you want the times for.

The parade at MGM looks to be at 3 pm each day for the time you are traveling. Illuminations is at 9 pm every night. Fireworks at MK vary from night to night, ususally either at 9 or 10 pm. You will want to look at the calendar to find out the time for the night you are planning on going to MK.

Have fun! I am going just a few weeks before you with my two boys, 5 and 2. They both really loved the MGM parade last year :)

I am so bummed that we are going to miss the MGM parade because we have a 3:50 ADR at Hollywood and Vine.

If the parade is at 3, you should be able to see it. We were just coming out of H&V and saw people lined up to watch it. H&V is pretty close to the parade route. I thought we would miss it too. You could probably watch from the starting point which I think is near Star Tours. Then, you could cut through the back way (around the lake)to make your ADR in plenty of time. Or you could line up and watch closer to the restaurant and let someone go check in for the ADR. You will likely have to wait a few minutes to be seated even with an ADR. If you are really wanting to see the parade, I think you should be able to pretty easily.
