A Disney World icon has CHANGED and we think you’re going to LOVE IT!

EPCOT
EPCOT became the center of Disney World’s celebration of the Walt Disney Company’s 100th Anniversary on September 22nd, which means ride changes, new food, and a brand-new nighttime show! Come with us to check it out!
To celebrate Disney’s 100th anniversary, Spaceship Earth has a NEW nighttime look! Get a look at those colorful lights and can we talk about that SPARKLE?!

The ride is covered in lights, which arrived for Disney World’s 50th anniversary but stuck around even after that celebration ended (thank goodness!). Those lights are a big part of this new show. And you can clearly see that with the Mickey Mouse they’ve made on it!
The show features the 100th anniversary anthem, which is a new rendition of “When You Wish Upon a Star.” Okay, we’re not crying, YOU ARE. (Fine, maybe we all are…)
Have a great night, y’all! 🥳 #Disney100 pic.twitter.com/bI66Nq47fg

This new show isn’t the only change — there are now four MORE Food & Wine Festival Booths (which also opened on September 22nd), and Soarin’ Over California has returned for a limited time.

And on December 5th, 2023, EPCOT will welcome a brand-new fireworks show called Luminous: The Symphony of Us.
