Late last year at D23, Disney initially announced that in celebration of Disney’s 100th anniversary, an extraordinary nighttime show would be coming to EPCOT at Disney World.
This show is set to replace Harmonious, an “infamous” spectacular recently introduced at the Park.

In the meantime, “EPCOT Forever,” which will be the show taking its place in the interim, is the perfect offering while the Entertainment team preps the Lagoon, including a phased removal of fireworks platforms following the final “Harmonious” performance on April 2. A limited-time spectacle of lasers, lighting, special effects, and fireworks, “EPCOT Forever” returns with a collection of songs that offer a trip down memory lane and a look toward the future.
Since the beginning, fans have been critical of the new show, calling Harmonious an “eyesore” and “grotesque.”
Are you excited to see a new show take over Harmonious at EPCOT?
