Not too long ago, fireworks returned to Magic Kingdom and EPCOT in Disney World with Happily Ever After and EPCOT Forever, respectively.
Fireworks are BACK!
But, at the start of Disney World’s 50th Anniversary there will be new fireworks shows for fans to enjoy — Disney Enchantment in Magic Kingdom and Harmonious in EPCOT. So, what will happen to EPCOT Forever and Happily Ever After? Will they come back after the 50th Anniversary celebrations are done or will they be gone for good? We’ve got a BIG update!
Today, Disney shared that EPCOT Forever and Happily Ever After will officially CLOSE in Disney World this summer. Specifically, Disney said that this summer will be your last chance to catch these fireworks before they “sparkle into Disney history.” That language appears to indicate that these fireworks will in fact CLOSE this summer and will not return to the parks in the future (at least according to what Disney seems to be indicating now).
Happily Ever After is Coming to a Close!
When will these shows close? EPCOT Forever will close in EPCOT on September 28th. And Happily Ever After will close at Magic Kingdom on September 29th.

What about those new shows coming to the parks? Well, Disney Enchantment will debut in Magic Kingdom on October 1st. During the show, guests will get to enjoy “music, enhanced lighting, stunning fireworks and, for the first time, immersive projection effects that extend from Cinderella Castle down Main Street, U.S.A.” The fireworks are meant to take guests “on a journey filled with adventure, wonder and empowerment,” inspiring everyone to believe in magic.
