It’s BACK! After leaving us in 2021, the EPCOT Forever fireworks show has returned!
Spaceship Earth
Since it was announced last year that the show would be returning, we have been waiting for this day. EPCOT Forever debuted in 2019 (taking over for the long-running Illuminations show), and it was replaced by Harmonious in 2021. Now, this show is back for a limited time. Come with us to check it out!
When we first got to EPCOT this evening, the crowds looked pretty light. Just before the show began, however, the viewing area got much more crowded!
It’s busy!
Note that the Harmonious barges are still in the middle of the World Showcase Lagoon, but Disney has announced that they will be removed soon.

Right at 9PM, the show began! This show features lots of nostalgic touches, including mixing “One Little Spark” with quotes about how the EPCOT park came to be.

The show uses pyrotechnics, lights, and lasers, and it looks really cool reflected in the lagoon.
As you can plainly see, Imagination works best when it’s set free! 🎆🌈 pic.twitter.com/32Ero6jCSC

EPCOT Forever will only stick around for a limited time. Later this year, it’ll be replaced by a NEW show that will celebrate The Walt Disney Company’s 100th anniversary.
