Holy Toledo, I wonder what could be next to come back.

 

[Gran Fiesta]

@mattpeto how much will the comeback index take a hit if they put masks back into place?

Large portions of the entertainment in all of the non-MK parks that still aren’t available/announced to be available soon (not counting M&G’s) are planned to be gone for the foreseeable future, if not forever.

Such as? Fantasmic? Nemo? Luau? Hoop? Indy?

Well, we've already heard that Nemo and Ariel weren't coming back.

And for Epcot, no Candlelight.

So, then this means no Indy stunt show.

 

[dreday3]

I'm honestly shocked Hoop-Dee-Doo isn't coming back. That was so popular.

I have pics of us from 1982.

I don’t know that it isn’t. If it’s not, the cast certainly hasn’t found out. I just spoke with one of them last week.

Yeah, I’m not counting dinner shows. Different departments and all that.

Sorry, misunderstood post!

 

[CastAStone]

Safe to assume that also includes the full length Disney Junior Dance Party show (as opposed to the 8 minute non-equity mini show they’re doing now)?

Wonderful World Of Animation was Fantastic Tonight!(over YT/FB) So glad DHS brought this back and not Movie Magic! Soul made it in! Was Onward/Frozen II in there before COVID closed DHS?

Sounds like this version had fireworks. That's an improvement if so.

It was just the low pyro it had before. I can't tell if any pyro was added....

Basically it sounds like we can count on Citizens at Main Street returning and an eventual marquee parade I'd gather since MK is being spared.

We are a losing a ton if so:

1. Indy
2. Nemo
3. VoLM
4. Nighttime shows (SWAGS), Rivers of Light (which we knew)
5. Citzens of Hollywood
6. Green Army
7. A ton of stuff at AK too (Tam Tam Drummers was one of my favorites)

I'm also assuming Fantasmic! will return EVENTUALLY.

That's a really hard pill to swallow. Yikes. Feel bad for those jobs as well.

Along with Trolley Dancers hopefully ? Still a little surprised the Dans is still the only Main Street only thing back. You'd think they could fit the Trolley Dancers somewhere...it's nowhere near the crowd level as HEA/FOF, even MISI(Pre COVID). Maybe MK is waiting for BATB's Royal Court(Couples) to return Aug 15th before returning Trolley Dancers to MK?

That’s disappointing for World Showcase, kinda sick of having Jamitors shoved into Canada and Voices singing outside

@Magic Feather did say "large portions" so I imagine some of this stuff will return but the majority will not.
