Best listen I’ve heard. I could actually understand most of the lyrics in the final song!

Looks like about 9:45 of original music in an 18-minute show. Best we could hope for with Iger calling the shots.

How far we have come from the 50th, with no Fantasmic and trash at MK and Epcot to the current offerings.
Yeah....DE Isn't Complete Trash............

Absolutely how I feel as well. Nothing will ever top Reflections of Earth, how could it? But given the cards the creative team was dealt, they hit it out of the park and then some. I saw it every night on my December trip (skipping HEA all three nights) and will see it twice this one. I definitely agree it’s the strongest nighttime spectacular being offered right now.
If you're a fan of Disney fireworks this is just an awesome time to visit. The HEA/LSOU lineup rivals the Wishes and Illuminations lineup and i say that as a diehard fan of both shows. Not to mention the updated version of Fantasmic which is just incredible
It's so nice to have a great nighttime spectacular show in each of the parks again (excluding AK because...reasons).

I completely skipped Epcot at night on my recent 5-day trip last October. Because of that I saw HEA on 2 nights (only nights without MNSSHP) and Fantasmic! the other 3 nights (total of 6 times since x2 nightly F! shows). Epcot Forever was just simply skippable after seeing it back in 2019 and no more kites.

Now if I were to make a trip, I would have to do all 3 parks at night throughout. Could even do some MK to Epcot or Epcot to HS park hopping to see multiple shows in one night. Makes me so excited as a parks/nighttime spectacular fan lol.

This show has to be the biggest from all since spotting it from The Riviera at Topolino's Terrace. Also saw that finale from The Skyliner right in perfect timing with it behind The American Adventure with Spaceship Earth bright on the right side. I think someone can record a soundtrack really well from the Topolino speakers but hench audience reactions included.
The finale from the Riviera is simply wonderful. You can even still see the heartbeats from that far away. The video linked below even has a "It's a heart" reaction from a guest! 💗


Also tbh, I think the recent soundtrack recordings that have been popping up on YouTube came from this resort, it's lacking the same bass as some of these "source" recordings.

Yesss, I absolutely captured a beautiful clear heart from a simple video I took with my phone from up there!

Absolutely!!! December ‘23 was the first time I’ve been at Epcot at night since 2022 when I saw Horrendous for the first and only time. Now we just need a night parade back and we are in another golden era.

Does anyone know what is going on with lighting in Canada? The past few shows I’ve seen either the popcorn lights or the sparkle-strobes have been on throughout the show. I know the popcorn lights were on constantly during the pavilion’s renovation, but I thought that was over at this point.

I got to see the show last week - once from the park, and several times from my room at the Yacht Club (we ended up with an amazing view). Really liked it a lot. Still can't top RoE for me, but it's up there. Great show and one I will be seeing on future visits.

Couple shots from my room.
