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

[doctornick]

I’m just assuming the centerpiece is a sphere/globe. Just a shape that works best in that setting. Maybe with lights and they will synch with whatever is going on at SSE at the same time

That's been ruled out by Steve and in the picture of that barge there was a hexagonal shape which would tie in with the shape in the lagoon the barges are moored against.

I wonder if there will be some light through a prism like effects from lights on the six barges and some on the central one itself shining through whatever the centre piece is.

Something like this is my guess:

Yeah some seem to think that’s what it is. I personally rather have a sphere, globe or overall some type moving component that opens or rises. But I don’t think that’s what we are getting.

Through out the whole Show? Or just the Finale?

Probably lighting and if there is any imagery to the fountains,

Interesting that it's going into December just 3 days before the debut.

IDK, when was HEA 2017's last Test Date?

I think it was a few days before as well, I guess it makes sense, hopefully, they don't cut any of the pyro between now and then.

Is there any rumors of a preview on the fourth? Haven’t heard anything, but remember the two days of previews before 10/1 for Harmonious.

EPCOT Forever last performance is on the 4th, so i dont think there will be previews.

That was for Media already at WDW for the 50th. I'm guessing no Soft Opens but I'm not an Insider.

Interestingly, EF still doesn't have an End Date added to its Title online.

Their probably to afraid to, yet again, list it as final performance.

Thanks to a last minute decision to come to WDW/SWO next month, I will get to see this show during its debut month! Super excited to hopefully start spending my evenings in Epcot again (which we haven't done since 2019 after RoE ended).

I wouldn't expect any earlier showing.

Do you think that’s a tight schedule issue, or is that a conscious decision to not have to deal with previews anymore?

I believe some media may have been invited to opening night, but not 100%.

Do I see a center barge?

Do I see a center barge?

Yes!

I get the sense by the circular nature of the centre, something may rotate?
