What a nice surprise! Sitting here — home with the flu — it was awesome to enjoy some Florida fun via MickeyBlog.com’s Facebook video.
Yep, our own Greg Antonelle streamed Epcot Forever from the deck of a Celebration Cruise.
Epcot Forever, Up Close And Personal
In case you are just logging on to MickeyBlog.com or maybe you don’t know what the heck Epcot Forever actually is, here’s the official lowdown from Walt Disney World News.
Across the canvas of a darkened sky, the new “Epcot Forever” nighttime spectacular debuting today at Walt Disney World Resort celebrates the past, present and future of Epcot. The new show is a showcase of soaring fireworks, inspiring music, lasers and colorful glowing kites flying above and around the park’s World Showcase Lagoon.
As the dramatic curtain-closer to each theme park day, the show takes guests on an emotional journey set to stirring renditions of Epcot music that guests will know and love. It will stoke fond memories from the park’s history and spur excitement for the bright future of Epcot – a future filled with new attractions and experiences as part of a multiyear transformation already underway.
“Epcot Forever” exemplifies the park’s founding principles – innovation, exploration, imagination and celebration. Children sing of “one little spark of inspiration” as guests marvel at fireworks that pinwheel, corkscrew and explode in giant aerial starbursts. As colorful pyrotechnics dance across the heavens, the Epcot story plays out to a grand orchestral soundtrack. Noted conductor and composer Don Harper produced new arrangements of classic Epcot tunes to thread through the show.
