The Star Wars fireworks they briefly ran with all those aerial shells was spectacular. It’s a shame that can’t be accomplished any longer.

The firework launch area for HS is behind the park on the otherside of World Drive. I'd assume not much will change because of Galaxy's Edge.

Do we know if this shells ceased due to construction safety / fire concerns for SWGE, or was it another issue? I missed the reason

Yeah... I can’t imagine why they’ve toned down DHS fireworks launches...

“Oops!” I didn’t see that story. I wondered about that when the site first opened considering the rd closures at MK... but makes perfect sense. At least if we lose big shells it’s for the show where they weren’t centered to the icon anyways... That really bugged me from day one of this show

I can believe it. We were over by Launch Bay and they ushered us out and away when the did the big fireworks show a few years back,

wait so they have issue using high altitude pyro at DHS because of fall out but they manage to figure it out in Anaheim where the park is surrounded by freeway, hotels and city streets?Yeah... I can’t imagine why they’ve toned down DHS fireworks launches...

Is the launch area that close to the road without any barrier around it?
i wonder if each resort uses different launch systems

I think the layout of DHS is a bigger problem because there is no ideal launch site for viewing in front of the Chinese that wouldn’t be problematic for one reason or another. Plus doesn’t DL have to cancel fireworks often due to high winds and they don’t have a castle display every night.

Was the high level launch pad that's never used anymore the most recent waste of money at these parks? Has to be.

it is used every night still. You can drive south on World Drive about 7pm and see the setup through the trees and scissor lifts up and ready to fire.
