So any reason Epcot can't use this for pyro for Harm. Or Tags???

Unfortunately the EF billboard still exists on I4.

Because we still have EF! Any pic of the billboard?

I understand there won't be fireworks shows for a while but why hold up the work? Seems like the perfect time to be working on it.

Most things are on hold as the company determines the financial impact and re-evaulates every expenditure.

Regarding the barge auction, there are two identical ~12x12 barges in the auction photos... Edit: actually all 4 barges are going on auction.
6244, 6247, 6245, 6246.

And maybe unrelated to Disney:

Agree. They should finish it and debut it when fireworks can return.

If I had my house on the lake I’d always wanted I’d love to have one of those barges to put out into the lake to hang out on, jump off of and of course rig up a firework show on it.

I know a number of people who saw Epcot Forever and didn’t think it was the 9th layer of hell. Personally I didn’t like it, and thought the ending was an odd middle finger more than anything, but to the average guest I don’t see how it was too bad.

Cause average guests sees fireworks first then the show itself. A fan sees the show first then fireworks.

Fireworks are always crowd pleasers anyways so the kites was a nice added touch.

I suggested to my wife that she buy me one of these for Father's day. I will host Illuminations in my neighbor's pool.

I bought one of the barges. I shoot local fireworks shows. Interestingly, they didnt remove anything from them except the racks. All electronics are still intact.

Depends on when they can show fireworks again. I'm thinking work will resume late this year (Nov/Dec) or even next year.

You'd think they would want to run EF for a bit whenever fireworks return so that they can use up some of the speciality shells, right?

Forever is currently planned to return eventually

Forever is currently planned to return eventually

My bets is that they run this far longer than we ever thought.
