We could use the showtimes for Disney Dreams that Soar. It debuts in a little more than a month.

It's still not on MDE or the website yet all.

There was a private showing of Happily Ever After tonight (5/16) at around 12am. This is the second time that it's been shown at a corporate event as far as I can tell/remember.

Unfortunately, there were no perimeters used. The extra option and package probably wasn't purchased with this event.



And in case you're curious what HEA with perimeters looks like, here's a clip from the first ever private HEA showing back in May 2018.

Not sure why but when I see this thread pop up I brace myself for rumors to begin of HEA going away or something happening to it. I do enjoy HEA and it’s the best nighttime entertainment WDW has currently IMO, well besides F!.
Now with a night parade planned to make it’s big return to MK and drones making their debut at WDW, it does make one wonder what else could be in the pipeline. Or it could simply be a night parade and HEA as is, then drones being an addition to or separate new show. 🤔

That type of thing used to be a frequent occurrence…many years ago.

Maybe corporate cultures have shifted over the years?

Not directly related, but Disney says there will be firework testing after Midnight tonight (Fourth of July firework testing?):

Apologies to our neighbors and guests for some noise after midnight tonight due to sporadic firework testing at Magic Kingdom.

Either 4th of July or very early MNSSHP testing

While this thread is temporarily alive, does anybody know when MK firework shows start shifting earlier again? Wondering if HEA will still be at 9:20 in early August or if we need to arrive even earlier to catch it.

The timing varies slightly between years, but should be similar. In 2023, showtimes were moved to 9:00pm on August 9th and to 8:30pm on September 18th I believe.

In 2022, Enchantment was moved to 9:00pm on August 8th I believe.

Hope that helps!

It’s very helpful, thank you! We are looking at the second week of August and we only have one shot at it, so I think we need to plan to be there by 8:50. Should have thought about this before making dining reservations. 🤦‍♀️
