Happily Ever After & EPCOT Forever Returning To Walt Disney World April 3, 2023

It has today been announced by Disney that both Happily Ever After and EPCOT Forever will be returning on April 3, 2023. The return of Happily Ever After was confirmed back in September 2022 at the D23 Expo, however EPCOT Forever’s return has only been rumored following the announcement that Harmonious would be taking to the skies one last time when the 50th Anniversary of the resort finishes, however this has now been officially confirmed.

As shared at the D23 Expo in September, an all-new nighttime spectacular is planned to debut at EPCOT later this year to celebrate 100 Wondrous years of Disney. Before the new show launches, EPCOT Forever is set to return as an interim show over the skies of World Showcase Lagoon starting April 3. A limited-time spectacle of lasers, lighting, special effects, and fireworks, EPCOT Forever returns with a collection of songs that offer both a trip down memory lane and a look toward the future.
