At this point, we might as well go ahead and hashtag it: #BargeWatch2021. It’s become a near-daily habit of ours to stroll around World Showplace Lagoon in EPCOT, zooming in on our phone cameras to monitor the construction progress on Harmonious, Disney World’s latest and greatest nighttime spectacular!
Harmonious Centerpiece
With each new development on one of the barges in the lagoon, we do a little happy dance! And today, we spotted new arms on the centerpiece barge!
Clearly, there’s a TON happening in EPCOT these days, but few updates are as central and visible as the steady development of Harmonious in the middle of World Showplace Lagoon.
Harmonious Barges
What’s sure to be a game-changing nighttime spectacular, befitting Disney World’s 50th Anniversary celebrations, continues to take shape, as we’ve recently seen the addition of more barges, new technology, and new testing!
For the latest installment of #BargeWatch2021, we spotted the addition of a new arms on the over 6-story tall ring-shaped centerpiece barge!

We can’t wait wait to see what these arms will do in the show!

But considering that this mighty barge is designed to display a high-density water curtain with various elements like lights and fountain fixtures, we can only assume it’ll lend a hand with one of those things!

For now, though, suffice to say that we’re getting more and excited by the day to see this thing come together.
