Disney4me Posted 7 hours ago Report Share Posted 7 hours ago Most of us have had a day where we plan to watch one of Disney World’s incredible nighttime spectaculars like Happily Ever After in Magic Kingdom, Fantasmic! in Hollywood Studios, and Luminous — The Symphony of Us at EPCOT, and when we go to watch the show, BOOM, it’s canceled. Happily Ever After in Magic Kingdom As much as we hate it when it happens, well, it happens! One of the most common reasons a show might be canceled is weather. When it’s too windy or lightning is too close to the area (some shows still run in the rain!), the show will be canceled for the safety of the guests and performers. We just learned a new way that a Disney World show can be canceled, and we bet you didn’t even know it was possible. Last week, you might have noticed that Luminous—The Symphony of Us was unexpectedly canceled. When we asked why, a Cast Member told us it was because the bridge that allows the barges to move to the middle of the World Showcase wouldn’t open. The fireworks couldn’t happen because they couldn’t get the equipment where it was supposed to be. Luminous If you’ve been walking around the World Showcase, you might have been stopped by Cast Members who said the bridge is opening. You’re usually only stopped for 10 minutes or so, but it can always be a bit frustrating when you’re rushing to your next Lightning Lane and realize you didn’t give yourself enough travel time. When the bridge is back down, you’ll be able to continue on with your day. EPCTOT Bridge One of EPCOT’s previous shows used to keep the barges on the water during the day, but this wasn’t popular amongst EPCOT fans because it blocked the views across the water. Now, they’re moved off the water for most of the day and brought back at night for the show. EPCOT We were also told that the same situation happened in Magic Kingdom for the bridge that opens for the Electrical Water Parade. Electrical Water Pageant While this isn’t something you can plan on, if you notice that it’s getting close to fireworks time and the barges aren’t out on the water, the bridge might not be working, and fireworks might be canceled.
