Fireworks have FINALLY returned to Disney World!

When the parks reopened back in July of 2020, the fireworks shows did not return in order to avoid crowds from forming. We missed ending our day in Magic Kingdom with Happily Ever After, but now, it’s BACK!! Tonight was the first time we’ve seen the nighttime spectacular in over a YEAR and it did NOT disappoint! Take a look!

Crowds started lining up early to see the return of fireworks! It’s been over 400 days, and you can tell guests and Cast Members are super excited.

And just like that, Happily Ever After was back in the Magic Kingdom!

Seeing the show again was absolutely breathtaking, it may have even brought a few tears to our eyes!

Happily Ever After will take place every night this month at 9:15PM. You may want to stake out your spot, because a LOT of people will be in front of the castle for the show!

We’re not crying, YOU’RE crying!
