Epcot Forever to Premiere October 1st, 2019

April 10, 2019 By Daniel Hale

Per the Disney Parks Blog.

Debuting October 1, 2019, “Epcot Forever” will be an all-new, limited-time spectacle of fireworks, music, lighting, lasers and choreographed, special effects kites. The show will take us on a journey through the past, present and future of Epcot. Featuring a stirring collection of songs that paint a colorful picture of the park, this nighttime extravaganza will offer both a trip down memory lane and a look towards the future and all the magical possibilities still to come.

However, on a sad note IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth last performance will be on September 1st, 2019.
