New Information for Enchantment and Harmonious Shows

We have been patiently waiting for the debut of Walt Disney World’s two newest nighttime shows. Now we have even more information and music for each new show. Check out all of the details below.

50th Anniversary Celebrations

In February 2021, the Walt Disney Company began announcing the 50th Anniversary celebrations for Walt Disney World. Each month our excitement grew as even more entertainment, decorations, and merchandise were announced for this golden anniversary.

Walt Disney World announced that two new nighttime shows would coincide with the 50th Anniversary. In Magic Kingdom, the beloved nighttime show “Happily Ever After” would be replaced with “Enchantment”. Also in EPCOT, Guests could enjoy “Harmonious”.

Special Live Stream Event

Yesterday, we shared that Magic Kingdom’s newest nighttime fireworks show “Enchantment” was rumored to debut before the official date. This rumor has now been validated. 

What is even more exciting than the early debut of this spectacular new show is that you can enjoy both “Enchantment” in the Magic Kingdom and “Harmonious” in EPCOT from the comfort of your own home. Check out how you can enjoy these live stream events HERE.

You can also join in the celebrations of the 50th Anniversary with a huge line-up of actors, athletes, and Disney Cast members. Check out this special program for the “Most Magical Story on Earth.”
