For us who loved the Fountain of Nations there’s a new one in town 🥹🥹

Update, this makes me so happy, great scores with this. Even the first one is fun.

I hope that they used real world designers with experience so it's maintained and working. Lord knows we've seen enough pretty displays that don't last a month before they break or are set to permanent B mode.

This one has a good set up. It looks like like Epcot where the hardware was in the top pool in the rats nest and then the rest in some crawlspace.

This is more interesting than the planter they put in place of the Fountain of Nations

I HAVE that fountain…!!
Get it out every summer for some backyard fun.

That ‘clown head’ is the famous ‘Fun Fountain’ produced by ‘Wham-O’ in 1977.
Still works great…

Aah, finally a fountain at Disney that guests are ACTUALLY allowed to wade in…

same type of music, just beautiful instrumental cinematic music.

Its a shame it doesn't have a story to go with it. It is a great fountain, don't get me wrong, but the "show" doesn't have any impact. There are what, about 14 oarsman type fountain heads and the rest are pretty much static nozzles? The music is just kind of generic sort of space themed I guess?? Other than the t-mobile magenta the colors are not very saturated. Some other effects would be nice- lasers, smoke, flame... I hope they take the great platform they've created and let some creative people go wild.

Very poor timing for Disney to destroy FoN instead of upgrading it.

Iger said they knew EPIC was coming for 10 years, too bad he did not know about the EPIC FOUNTANS.

The night view of the fountain especially from above, I am guessing from the Helios Grand (looking at the videos) looks EXCELLENT at night.

Eine Kleine Wassermusik? What do they do in winds or rains?
