News Epcot Forever to debut as interim show before full Reflections of Earth replacement

[Clamman73]

I'm more curious about what the pre-EPCOT Forever music will be....

Aftershow removal may begin around 930. Remember those cheers at the drawbridge!

It would be nice too if there was a final inferno barge burn off after the show for those still in the park.

When I was young, single, and lived 5 minutes away, watching the burn off was my favorite evening activity, lol! I still think the best time was after the 25th show - with that epic wait and sing-along.

Here we are! Last day of a HUGE Week for WDW! And now, EF has Merch!: https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/b...ular-epcot-forever-merchandise-available-now/

 

[Figment82]

Yeah... I’m gonna need some of that... lol!

As atrocious as the ROE stuff was, Figment looks awfully cute on the EF items! I’m guessing the purple shirt is the youth version?

I HATED the ROE Merch!!! Sure Sorcerer Mickey started the Millenium Celebration but we didn't need the new Mickey, Minnie, and figment on ROE, They have nothing to do with ROE!


Looking at the EF Merch, I wish EF had projections so we can see Figment, Dreamfinder, other things......

My guess would be the torches will stick around/still be used until Harmonious?

Just as a quick speculation: Any chance the blue kite we keep seeing in clips is going to be Epcot's first incarnation of the "Story-Telling Light" that will guide us through SSE after the refurb?

So... 8 barges? The 7 we see here and the one hidden in the nook of that island?

After tonight I’ll have to stop watching this thread I’ll see this in 12 days and want no spoilers.

Same, but in a week from now!

Hopefully all goes well tonight for EFs debut. Was some rain last night and today seems a little windy.... which has me wondering how well the kites will perform. Surely wind will have some impact on them.

 

[TimeTrip]

I hadn't tried in several years for Illuminations (since they put fastpass+ in), but were they still allowing seating on the "stage" in showcase plaza depending on the winds?
Any word on if they'll allow it for Epcot Forever?

I'm hoping for a full debut as well. Even with the rain last night ROE still did the perimeters. And today is supposed to be just like yesterday., Tomorrow as well. I get weather issues but I hope we're not waiting days for kites.

I think I know the answer but anything like the burnoff the streamers should stick around for?

Technically the only “barges” visible in that photo are the the WW3 barges. In the nook is a series of several small barges.

I watched the show from the FP+ area about 5-6 times in the past couple months, and they never opened the very front area. I was even telling my parents about how the crowd control CMs usually wait until close to showtime for the “okay” to open it up, and it never happened. Even on nights when there was little to no wind. Not sure if that’s now official policy, or if things will change.
