Making of Happily Ever After - Walt Disney World Nighttime Spectacular Magic Kingdom Park

“Happily Ever After,” a new nighttime spectacular that will combine the magic of Disney storytelling, beloved Disney characters, fireworks and so much more, will debut at Magic Kingdom Park on May 12, 2017.
The spectacular will inspire guests to seek out and find their own “Happily Ever After” by showcasing some of the greatest adventures Disney characters have taken to achieve their dreams. The show will feature the latest fireworks and pyrotechnics and original animation, plus a heart-tugging original score. And thanks to the inclusion of state-of-the-art projection mapping technology, more Disney characters than ever before will be featured in the show, including moments from “Moana,” “Brave,” “Big Hero 6,” “Zootopia,” “The Princess & The Frog,” “Aladdin” and many others.
Speaking of music, the show will feature a brand-new theme song titled “Happily Ever After,” a song that encourages us to dream our biggest dream possible and to never give up. The duet is sung by country music artist Angie Keilhauer and singer Jordan Fisher, whom you may recognize from the “Moana” soundtrack or the 2016-winter 2017 cast of Broadway’s “Hamilton.”
The Fireworks Dessert Party at Tomorrowland Terrace will continue to offer up a scrumptious way to view the nighttime fun as “Happily Ever After” makes its debut.
The news of a replacement fireworks show is sure to disappoint a lot of longtime Walt Disney World fans, as Wishes! has enjoyed nearly a 15-year run, and was the first modern fireworks ‘spectacular’ at Walt Disney Word. The last performance of Wishes! will occur on May 11, 2017, so prepare to say goodbye before then if you want to see it one last time.

I have never seen this show live at Disneyworld (I have yet to make it there), but as an avid Disneyland Parks fan and avid fireworks fan, this show is SPECTACULAR having only watched it on UA-cam...I wish I could see it live...I've listened to this arrangement more times than I can count and it never lets me down & that projection mapping...WOW...thank you to everyone who had a part in making something so wonderful and for bringing out the child in each of us dreamers...

When it starts again it is a must see!

I'm so happy to hear that they are bringing HEA back after the 50th celebration is over in 2023!!!! It is the best nighttime show they've ever had!!

Sin duda, es un show de nunca olvidar. Lo vi el día del lanzamiento y posteriormente en tres ocasiones y cada vez que lo veo, lloro de la emisión. Definitivamente llega a mi corazón

[@matthewsung3014]

Happily Ever After's musical score is so great, and the projections are so amazing -- I think it's one of the best fireworks shows, trailed by Disney In The Stars in Hong Kong Disneyland.
