The World's Most Magical Celebration - Walt Disney World's 50th anniversary

That’s why I said OUAT wouldn’t return “any time soon” a couple days ago

Of course, I guess they could bring it back in September for a couple weeks once sunset is early enough but I don’t gather that’s their intention.

Can they have it ready by 10/1? Is it a special show, part of 50th Tag? Or just HEA on Main Street? Which is an upgrade don't get me wrong.

Are they revisiting pre covid plans? MSUSA projections were one of them, no?

Don't get me going! LOL!!!!

A separate projection show was envisioned in addition to fireworks once the light parade was ruled out. I don’t know about Main Street projections, though they’d be a good move to spread people out.

I hope they add extra lighting on top of the MS buildings like DL has for Disneyland Forever and Mix Magic. And more lasers

You mean what happened after Spectro and MSEP left? That’s exactly what they did, HEA and OUAT lol.

So no hope of them bringing a nighttime parade over for summer 2022 or the other half of the 50th?

I’m not holding my breath. I don’t know that it will ever return.

To keep the hope alive lol, It’s possible next year’s decisions haven’t been made yet, or known to insiders. Worst case DL or DCA might bring one of them back, so we can all go there and enjoy it lol. Plus they have a new ish daytime parade (Magic Happens).

Just for fun lol. I just did some searching. Technically, it’s not TO late to get MSEP to MK by October lol, but it will be very soon. DEP ended at DCA in April 2010 and debuted at MK in June 2010. 3 months. Keeping in mind that’s MSEP in which they have experience shipping. Paint, which is the one that was actually rumored awhile back, not really MSEP, I’d imagine would probably take longer.

But, as Mansionbutler said, he’s not holding his breath.

If we get anything close to the "Celebrate Tokyo Disneyland" projection show they did for their 35th Anniversay i would be all for that!

Agree. Second choice would be something similar to SDLs show. That theme song is so catchy and fun. I also love what they did with the lamp posts.

"Back at Magic Kingdom, it’s not immediately clear if the work to bring projection effects to Main Street USA is part of a standalone projection show, or if it’s part of a bigger project aimed at improving upon the Happily Ever After nighttime spectacular by bringing projections to Main Street USA during that show.

Either way, our sources have said that Disney is going to be moving forward with the project as part of a renewed push to bring nighttime entertainment back to the theme parks. It’s unclear if the work is being done to have a show debut on October 1, 2021 or simply at some point during the 18-month celebration."

Having a feeling it might be similar to the Disneyland Forever fireworks/projection show created for the resort's 60th Anniversary.

Wasn’t there a rumor waaay back that WDW wanted to repeat what DLs had for their 60th, focusing on all nighttime entertainment? It seems like a focus on nighttime entertainment has been and still is WDWs goal.

Cant focus on nighttime entertainment without a nighttime parade.

Heck even FoF at nighttime. I know that was deemed not doable a long time ago, which I personally don’t fully believe. They had no issue bringing Maleficent out at night for the after hours events. Maybe it’s doable now that they updated the rooftop flood lights to led?

I don't remember that rumor.....but maybe I was in the wrong thread. That would be quite the goal since DLR had PTN, DL Forever and WOC Celebrate!

I know we wanted TDO to correct their Night Parade mistake(Not replacing MSEP when DL needed it back, not even FOF twice a day!)but that's about it. There;s was nothing strong about FOF 50th or Castle Show 50th. Although, MK didn't have a 25th Show, just little Tags before the Regular Shows.


And no one could figure out (not complaning) what was happening with HEA....50th Show? 50th Tag? I think we still don't know(Tag wise, too late for a full 50th Show!)! What was tested Thurs Night? HEA's launch Spot? Or Perim.???
