News EPCOT's Harmonious to be replaced with new nighttime spectacular Luminous

[TTA94]

hmmm. There are some surprising decisions coming.

Just curious, decisions or decision? Lol

MSEP is scheduled to return in Spring 2024 according to Wikipedia so it must be true!

Not anymore.

if they replace HEA (again), the fan community will go nuts

And rightfully so. Happily Ever After is one of the highest-rated things at the entire resort (if not the highest). Meanwhile they are struggling to create a successful nighttime show at Epcot or Animal Kingdom. They’d be inexplicably and extraordinarily dumb to spend money on trying to replace HEA again.

Oh, and bring back the Kiss Goodnight already. It's been 3+ years, geez.

Sadly I don't think we'll see Kiss Goodnight return in its original form or at all, since a snippet of Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah is played near the end.

This company would never unnecessarily replace an extremely-popular guest experience in Magic Kingdom.

Right?

Besides L:SOU, is any of this related to Disney 100? If it is, might we hear something today since it's the First Day of Disney 100 At WDW?

Would be interesting to hear a L:SOU Update today, if Epcot has one....

I had a dream last night that Disney announced the Beacons of Magic were returning with new color schemes and updated projections to look better than ever.

I may need to take a step back from Disney when that’s my dream.

Sorry, best we can do is a new statue

There was nothing wrong with Beacons Of Magic! Epcot still has theirs. Also, it gave life to TOT other than just Sunset Seasons Greetings during the Holidays.


The only downside of Beacons Of Magic was it prevented Castle Dreamlights. But if those are gone anyway, why not have Beacons Of Magic.


Unless MK rushing Castle Dreamlights is one of the Surprises....

Is a new Guidemap out???

Don't think so but there is the new mural

 

[GhostHost1000]

Don't think so but there is the new mural

Part of that $60B already being spent

 

[TDLFan]

I seriously can't believe a mural on a construction wall is one of the offerings to celebrate the company's 100th. Crazy times.

Maybe the MK discussion should be moved to another thread?

I was wondering that yesterday. I was guessing HEA's Thread before last night but now, where? Still HEA? OUAT? Night Parade?

Moot Point but did Play Disney Parks always have just 2 Tacos?

I found Waldo! And he doesn't look anything like you expect him to.

The tiny, thin fountains make me laugh. Very accurate.
