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!
Happily Ever After Fireworks
It came as a shock to hear that the recently-returned show received a final end date…but is it really going for good? [Read more…]
Fireworks have FINALLY returned to Disney World!

When the parks reopened back in July of 2020, the fireworks shows did not return in order to avoid crowds from forming. We missed ending our day in Magic Kingdom with Happily Ever After, but now, it’s BACK!! Tonight was the first time we’ve seen the nighttime spectacular in over a YEAR and it did NOT disappoint! Take a look!
We’ve got BIG news for those traveling to Disney World later this year!
Cinderella Castle
As you’ve probably heard, Disney World will be celebrating its 50th Anniversary this year. On October 1st, 2021 the 18 MONTH-long festivities will begin for “The World’s Most Magical Celebration“. The celebration includes special transformations coming to the parks’ icons, new outfits for Mickey & Minnie, and a whole lot more. And now, we’ve got MORE BIG NEWS about the Anniversary!!!
We haven’t seen an official fireworks show in Walt Disney World in over a YEAR!
Fireworks Testing
There were a few flares around the holidays, as well as some random fireworks testing, but not a full show! Recently we learned that fireworks will be returning to Walt Disney World on July 1st, and now we have official times for the shows! Take a look.
Things definitely feel a bit different in Magic Kingdom without the iconic nightly fireworks!
Cinderella Castle
This holiday season, Cinderella Castle is being illuminated by projections, which rotate between several different festive patterns. And while the nightly fireworks shows have not yet resumed, we did get a small taste of fireworks in the park tonight!
It’s been months since we last saw Disney fireworks, and we really do miss them.
Happily Ever After
Disney has been open for about a month now, and we’re still getting used to all of the biggest changes. One change that came about with the reopening was the cancellation of all nighttime spectaculars — including Happily Ever After. Now, it seems like Disney is doing some work on the Magic Kingdom fireworks.
Looking for a way to enjoy some fireworks from the comfort of your own home??
Magic Kingdom Fireworks
Well then, Disney has you covered! We’ve had the chance to enjoy a virtual viewing of the Happily Ever After fireworks, and in honor of the holiday, Disney has also shared a video of the Fourth of July fireworks show at Magic Kingdom!
Did you know that we’re HALFWAY TO HALLOWEEN?
Disney’s Not So Spooky Spectacular
To be fair, we didn’t know that we were either — that is until Disney started releasing a ton of fun Halloween content! We’ve seen an all-new collection of Haunted Mansion merch AND The Dapper Dans singing “Grim Grinning Ghosts,” but the spookiness is just getting started. Tonight, get in the spirited spirit by watching the 2019 Disney’s Not So Spooky Spectacular from the comfort of home!
Disney is expanding the elbow room for guests who are attending the Wishes Dessert Party in Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom. The kicker? They’re using the area that, up to now, has been designated for viewing Wishes with a FastPass.
Wishes Fireworks Spectacular
Effective immediately, guests who take advantage of same-day booking for this premium event will move into the Main Street Plaza Gardens when the fireworks begin. Guests who booked their Wishes Dessert Party in advance can choose to remain in the Tomorrowland Terrace for fireworks viewing, or join the other guests in the Gardens. [Read more…]
