It was a shortened version too, they cut out the third verse.

News Happily Ever After fireworks show returning to Magic Kingdom in 2023
- Thread starter wdwmagic
- Start date
I mean most people (me included) probably won't be able to tell what fireworks are different, maybe the projections but I think the song and voiceover is the main part people know/rememberThe way he worded it scares the hell out of me
The SONG is returning. NOT THE SHOW
people are celebrating prematurely

@Steve I find all of this absolutely fascinating. Both shows (DE and Harm) premiered to mixed reviews at best and neither seemed to gain traction over time. Can you shed some light on which of the two started down the path of replacement first and how all of this played out behind the scenes?
It’s truly unprecedented that they would pull the plug on both. Although I couldn’t be more thrilled!

I'm not Steve, but I would have to believe that Harmonious is the bigger disappointment. They hyped that show like crazy, repeating often that it was the largest nighttime show they'd ever done. I can't imagine it was cheap, and I can't imagine they planned for it to be gone in less than two years. RoE was in service for a good 20 years; there's no way they expected to have to replace a show this quickly.
Well MK added Walt to DE in August so we can say that DE was worked on first....

Certainly doesn’t give the impression that she would block that.

Even if tbe same woman, recoeding in a studio vs live on stage would make a difference.

A bit off topic for the thoughts that were being discussed in this thread, but is there any knowledge as to whether the Main Street projections will be added to HEA 2.0? I have a hard time believing that they would simply not use that technology to spread out the crowds, but I am unsure whether HEA is a long term show for MK (depending on the amount of edits), so that might put it in question.

I am sure HEA will be get the Main Street projections, and that the show will remain for quite some time. It has been speculated that the show will get a 100th Anniversary tag, which would be temporary.

Yes, but the 100th anniversary tag won’t be ready until mid-2024, of course.

I can see this being the replacement for the castle dream lights if they don't return after the 50th.

I don’t believe they could put those on the top spire, which would be distracting.

On a larger scale would be nice not just the turrets. Not exactly sure how this could be done though where it would blend in.

You could probably mask some solution at least decently well by strategically variegating the shingle coloration, but I'm not sure what effect that would have on the overall look of the castle.

I hope so, I just don't feel the mega goosebumps from Enchantment.

Last time I was there during DE, I finally felt like I were the Magic because I was on Thunder Mountain at the time. Still cool riding during fireworks and I couldn’t hear the garbage music or see the trash projections. It felt like 2015.
