“Epcot Forever” Canceled Due to Technical Difficulties

Posted on by Mathew Corn Disney Parks, Epcot

Another day, another “technical difficulty” at Walt Disney World for a new offering. October 9th’s Epcot Forever performance, scheduled for 9 PM, was finally canceled at around 10:45 PM due to Epcot being open until 11 PM for Extra Magic Hours.

No specific reason for the cancellation was given, but the show was delayed by almost two hours before being canceled. Guests at the park described that the torches that surround World Showcase Lagoon never went on at 8:30 PM, and neither did the pre-show music.

There is no word if the cancellation of this performance means anything for the upcoming planned performances. Epcot Forever debuted October 1, 2019, with new pyrotechnics and light-up kites as a temporary show before HarmonioUS debuts in Spring/Summer of 2020.

This isn’t the first technical difficulty for a new offering to hit Walt Disney World recently, as there was an accident on the Disney Skyliner this past weekend.

“Epcot Forever” Epcot’s New Fireworks Spectacular will Be Live streamed Tonight!

4th of July @ Walt Disney World

Posted on by Mathew Corn Disney Parks, Epcot, Magic Kingdom

Red, white, and Blue and……….the Mouse. Walt Disney World compares directly with American Independence in so many ways.

  • America – Celebrates patriotism
  • WDW – Magic Kingdom has Liberty Square, Epcot has the American Adventure
  • America – Apple pie
  • WDW – Dole Whip anyone?
  • America – Uncle Sam
  • WDW – Mickey Mouse (Sam Eagle – Honorable Mention)
  • America – Fireworks on 4th of July
  • WDW – Fireworks EVERY night

Need I continue?

So what would be better than being at Disney World on the 4th of July? Now that’s the best of both worlds.

Here are some of the things that can be seen/done on this upcoming July 4th at WDW;

Magic Kingdom Park – Park Hours: July 3, 8 a.m.-12 a.m.; July 4, 8 a.m.-1 a.m.

  • “Disney’s Celebrate America! A Fourth of July Concert in the Sky” offers booming fireworks orchestrated to patriotic melodies showering the Magic Kingdom sky on both July 3 and July 4 at 9:15 p.m. Guests can also dance the night away with DJs spinning tunes at a Hoedown Throwdown in Frontierland and an out-of-this-world Galactic Gathering in Tomorrowland. Fans at home can join in the Independence Day celebration by viewing a special July 4 live stream of the dazzling fireworks display on the Disney Parks Blog.
  • A fuzzy cast of Muppets – Miss Piggy, Kermit, Fozzie Bear and friends – reenact famous moments in American history in a whimsical way during “The Muppets Present … Great Moments in History.”The live show is performed several times daily near the Hall of Presidents in Liberty Square.

Epcot – Park Hours: 9 a.m.-9 p.m.

  • “IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth” will end its nearly 20-year run on September 30, 2019.

  • A cappella vocal group Voices of Liberty will perform great American tunes during a Fourth of July concert on the America Gardens Theatre stage at 5:30, 6:45 and 8 p.m. on July 4. The group also will perform in the rotunda inside The American Adventure pavilion at 2 p.m. and 3 p.m.
  • Guests can meet favorite Disney characters donning their “Spirit of ’76” patriotic attire at The American Adventure throughout the day on July 4.
  • Guests can indulge in themed eats and sips honoring Independence Day throughout the park – everything from patriotic cupcakes and special dining packages to red, white, and blue sangria and a Boom Berry Lemonade.
