ICYMI: Fantasy In The Sky Fireworks Dazzle Us Into 2022 at the Magic Kingdom
It was a dazzling evening at the Magic Kingdom last night as Disney World’s launched its New Year’s Celebration! There were dance parties, festive lights, DJs spinning some awesome tunes and so much more. But, the icing on the cake of Disney World’s holiday season has to be the Fantasy in the Sky fireworks display!
These special New Year’s Eve fireworks kicked off one day early (December 30, 2021) for all you Disney-goers that couldn’t be at Magic Kingdom tonight!
Here’s a look at the crowds that amassed for last night’s fireworks!
You could really feel the excitement in the air.
There was even dancing in the streets (literally) if you caught our video of the Frontierland Dance Party!
Last night’s Fantasy in the Sky were a precursor to the official New Year’s Eve fireworks.
These will kick off tonight at 11:50 PM for those lucky enough to be spending your New Year’s Eve at the Most Magical Place on Earth!
This year’s fireworks are extra special as they combine Disney World’s traditional New Year’s fireworks display with the added pageantry of the resort’s 50th Anniversary festivities.
With that in mind, the castle was looking absolutely beautiful last night as we waited for the fireworks to kick off!
Here are a few shots of the jam-packed crowd as we pan backwards to Main Street U.S.A.
For festivities like these, avid Disney-goers will stake out their fireworks viewing spot hours in advance.
Below is a fantastic video of the DJ getting the crowd warmed up for the big countdown!
The lights down Main Street U.S.A were beautiful!
As were the castle lights in special EARidescent hues for Disney World’s anniversary celebration which will run throughout 2022.
And it’s time for the countdown….are you ready!?
We managed to capture some views of the stunning fireworks!
The castle was lit up in a multitude of beautiful hues!
