Fireworks are coming back to Walt Disney World soon!
Disney recently announced that starting July 1st, firework shows will return to Magic Kingdom and EPCOT. That’s THIS WEEK, PEOPLE! Fireworks shows have not been shown in Disney World in over a year, so there have been some test runs before the big opening night! We recently spotted Happily Ever After running Magic Kingdom after the park had closed, and last night, we saw something special going on in EPCOT!!
A reader (@mr_mrs.harrison on Instagram) spotted fireworks being tested last night in EPCOT after the park had closed! Take a look:

Harmonious, the new nighttime fireworks show that will open in EPCOT on October 1st. We have recently seen the show being tested a few different times in EPCOT after hours.
Until Harmonious opens, EPCOT Forever will run every night in the park! We got to see the show’s short-lived run before the closures last year.
We’ll let you know if we see any more testing before opening night, and we’ll also be there to see the shows on July 1st! So, stay tuned to DFB for all the latest Disney news and updates!
