News Happily Ever After fireworks show returning to Magic Kingdom in 2023

[JohnD]

As much as I would love for it to return, the Kiss Goodnight contains an instrumental snippet of Zip-A-Dee-Do-Dah, and so we will likely never hear it again in its current form.

I was so tempted to reply something else but I changed my mind. Sigh. . .

It feels like DE was rushed, but I like the projection work for HE, so if they are just adapting the existing to the facades, it should be great

adapt and add if needed, and all should be good. I certainly hope they go the Disneyland route and start the projections up right away.

I feel like the reason they start so late was that they weren't given enough time to do the whole show so they just decided to start them halfway through.

And making sure it doesn’t look like a 5th grader made them…

Hey, did you hear about this new cool animation program that's a cinch to use? It's called Flash Animation!!

They should have had Tink start the show, and have her light up all the facades...

I think there are some moments in HEA that will be very hard to adapt to Main Street, for example from 4:26-6:27 I think will be hard cause the main focus is a single character on the castle.

Usually at Disneyland they may either omit the character from the facades, or just place them in random spots on the facades.

I like the show. I loathe the song. "Happily Ever After," the song, is far inferior to both "You Are the Magic" and "The Magic is Calling."

So I just heard the Cavalcade version of "The Magic is Calling" and I hate it with the passion of a thousand fiery suns.

I think you are just angry that the Magic called and put you on hold for 5 hours due to the nationwide staffing shortage.

Let’s hope whatever replaces the song, assuming there will be a new song for the 100th or whatever, won’t be as horrid.

“The Magic’s TikToking” CONFIRMED as Disney 100 theme!

“The Magic’s TikToking” CONFIRMED as Disney 100 theme!

Disney100 celebration primarily focused at Disneyland, not WDW. So, the Disney100 theme less likely be appeared mostly at any theme parks other than DLR, which received more attentions of Disney100 than any other Disney resorts (likely due to entertainment offerings and decorations).

That’s good because they did so well with WDW’s 50th

 

[HauntedPirate]

Remember when every park celebrated DL's 50th? Seems like forever ago when Disney actually had a clue about such things.

I ARE THE MAGIC IS CALLING ME TO CELEBRATE LIKE NEVER BEFORE!!!

More than "THERE IN YOUR EhhehyyYYEEESS?"

It's close.

Here's a multi-angle view of Happily Ever After with its original pyro. It was taken in 2019 (where the regular MK firework show had single launch site), and it will see whether pyro will return to single launch site when HEA returns this April.

Yes!! This really was the peak of HEA, finale-wise.

Here's another video from around the same time period that I have bookmarked. The finale shells really went all out and rival'd the NYE and July 4th fireworks (imo).

 

[TTA94]

I want them to add Shanghai’s hub lighting. Would be a nice addition to HEA. Probably better chance of that happening than moat fountains. Might have to wait for that until whatever ends of replacing HEA… whenever that will be. Some will say hopefully never lol.

 

[Vinnie Mac]

Does anyone here know how long Disney intends to keep HEA?
