Are you ready for Disney World’s 50th Anniversary?
The MAJOR celebrations kick off on October 1st with new decorations, new looks for our favorite Disney pals, and of course, NEW FIREWORKS. Not only will Harmonious be debuting in EPCOT, but Magic Kingdom will get the brand new Disney Enchantment nighttime spectacular!
The new show is set to bring together fireworks, projections all the way down Main Street, U.S.A., and new music — and now we know a bit more about the original song that will be a part of the score!
GRAMMY Winner Philip Lawrence wrote and performed “You Are the Magic” for the new show! Disney notes that the song will accent climactic moments of the new show, “as we discover we only have to look within to ignite the magic that was inside us all along.”
Lawrence performs the song along with actor and singer Kayla Alvarez (Did you know both of these artists were Disney World Cast Members?). You might recognize Lawrence’s name from his work with Bruno Mars on songs like “Uptown Funk” and you may have seen Alvarez performing around Orlando. Want a sneak peek at the new song? Take a look at this video!
We can’t WAIT to see the fireworks and projections that will go along with this new tune, and we want to hear the rest of the song too. We’ll be sure to take you with us for ALL the 50th news leading up to and on October 1st! Stay tuned to DFB!
