    for people wondering what happened. The final cannons were at the US pavilion this year vs the center of world showcase lagoon. hence why the fire works were covered by smoke. IDK why they decided to do this but I'm assuming the cannons for the finale didn't fit with the center barges, but they made it work 2 years back with Harmonious? Horrible decision!

    Okay so the show was still there, I was surprised they used the Luminous outer barges for the fireworks rather than inputting another set of barges like in the new years. It was still a fantastic night but there was a big problem, not just to the show but the audience near the the US Pvailion is covered by smoke which isn't good as it can cause breathing issues and such more to people watching in that area, second of all they should not do Luminous if it's a really dry weather with no winds, as Luminous has some newly added since its debut which causes more smoke, and should instead make way for the Heartbeat of freedom pyro and stuff. Over all at least it still happened and hope for this to never happen again next year

      @ians4535 Місяць тому +3

      @@starship824 I think by moving the portion of grand finale to American Adventure, the show becomes more thematically appropriate, due to that the 4th of July independence is almost exclusively American public holiday that no other parts in the world celebrating. The problem is they still played Luminous during 4th of July (especially on non-windy nights), so the smoke still intact even after show's end.
      So, i want to suggest Epcot to suspend the regular firework shows during the special events such as 4th of July, in order to make the show more like its own right and to minimize the impact of smoke during humidity events.

    This year wasn’t as good as previous years. Especially the finale. Usually they launch a crap ton of fireworks from the barges in the center of the lagoon, but instead this year the finale fireworks were all launched from a top the America pavilion. In years past the American pavilion does launch fireworks from the top, but the ending is usually always in the middle and crazy big.

      @@bretthoudek5408 It really wasn't. It was great, but this show brings all the threads together in a better way and creates the personal investment in the Epcot vision. Watch it from the south side of the Lagoon and see the fantastic place where Spaceship Earth comes alive. The float, the fountains, the launcher at the finale. People only think Illuminations was better due to nostalgia. This show is tighter, better timed, and flows better.
