I expect news on Fantasmic! and perhaps a vague “we will have more news to share on our evening entertainment in the months ahead.”

AFAIK there will be updates to MK nighttime entertainment next year, regardless.

Aren't we still six months away from a potential change? Seems like a January/February announcement would be more in line?

I agree with this completely. It's a little early to announce they are sunsetting Enchantment, especially after the new Walt/Roy/Mickey tribute. I think it's more likely than not, that they don't touch HEA during D23, even though I think there is a solid chance (maybe a little less than 50/50 that it does return in April).

And from a hypothetical perspective, they won't want people to postpone their Jan-March trips because they are eager to see HEA starting in April 2023. Hopefully opening TRON will be bait for early 2023.

Then I guess it will see updates! ;)

Actually I was wrong. MKs nighttime entertainment doesn’t just consist of one nighttime show if you count the seasonal entertainment lol.

Unpopular opinion but id love to see Boo To You and Once Upon A Christmastime be replaced soon. Something like DLPs Mickeys Dazzling Christmas Parade would be awesome for MK.

Maybe TDO is planning on the eventual weather-related destruction of the projectors by leaving them outside. Sounds akin to how they disposed of the Spectro parade.

Yeah, MKs Christmas Parade is essentially running on nostalgia alone.

Boo to you has my favorite parade section ever - the band and villains singing a song about how they scare you. I love thinking about someone convincing the villains to get on the float and sing a song. It's just so rediculous. Plus the song is excellent.

As far as Christmas, ACF is older than MOUACT.

Since this is the kick off to the 100th they could announce something like "every Disney resort will see new night time shows in honor of the event" ... But not more specific than that

If it is specifically HEA returning and not a different show / something for the 100th very likely wouldn't be announced until later
Well Believe is opening in November at TDS. New Pyro is rumored for DL. I'm getting more used to the fact that HEA could be in MK next year. It'll be interesting to see on how it all plays out on Sunday!

FOF, MMFF and Aventure Friends was announced last November at the WDW Event. Of course, no real dates till end of Jan 2022.

Question is.......Does Disney need a Big Event to announce a replacement for Enchantment or more MK Nighttime Entertainment?????? HEA and DE was just announced on DPB I believe......

Probably not - unless they are light on car ntent and need this to be "something" to announce for WDW/MK

Or like I said part of a larger collection of new shows as part of the 100th ....

But especially if just HEA back or something I would see it more as just a social media announcement in January or something

I was thinking the same thing that HEA and DE were just Park Blog announcements, not a big D23 announcement. But who knows.

And over in the MH thread it’s sounding like PTN is indeed in the works to return. So, no big surprise, that’s off the table for WDW yet again, assuming it ever was On the table to begin with.

If I remember correctly, HEA was a total Surprise on DPB. I didn't see any Tea Leaves on here before that....... We knew something was coming for the 50th, either HEA 50th Tag or a 50th Show. We all know the answer......At least DE looks better now before the 51st..........

While I'm glad PTN is being thought of, I'm a little confused. Wasn't it about 2 Weeks ago that there were reports of DL Entertainment Managers walking the Parade Route saying MSEP was only done for 2022 and returns next Summer? Of course, that never made it to DPB or anything.

Very Interesting if PTN returns and MSEP is not done at DLR.....

Then TDO needs to do a Spectro Miracle!!!!!!!!!!!.

As expected for D23 and as usual all the love entertainment wise will go to DL. At least there hasn’t been any indication that won’t be the case.

Even though Walt/Roy Enchantment was a good move, I know most people are hoping that wasn't the only change for 2023 in MK........

Would be nice to know if HEA really is Dead and if MK is finally working on a Night Parade! Whether it's FOF, from another Park, or totally new.
