Everybody loves staying at Magic Kingdom and watching the Main Street Electrical Light Parade and Wishes night time shows. The problem is the crowds on Main Street can be overwhelming depending on what time of the year you go and it can ruin a very fun day. That many people in close quarters is not a good thing.
Thankfully, the Disney decision-makers went ahead and made a fast pass viewing area from the newly constructed Hub area at the Magic Kingdom.
The grassy areas up to the barricade are roped off by castmembers in the late evenings. Below are pictures of the area, showing main street on an average June day and the other the Wishes Fast Pass area. These photos were taken on the same day at the same time.

You can easily see the difference in the crowds. The Fast Pass area is comfortable, relaxing, and a must do for everyone who plans on staying to see wishes.
There are some obstructions when viewing from the Fast Pass areas, so be sure to get there early and set up in a good location. Below is video of the full Wishes show from the Fast Pass area.
