Happily Ever After Fireworks Return Performance 2023 - Magic Kingdom

[@Christian.Guluarte.03]

I’m a Disney cast member who works at magic kingdom, I see this show almost everyday, and I swear that it gets me every single time! Hands down the best Disney show ever

Thank you Tom! This means so much to me. It means I survived Covid, getting hit by a car, and a family loss. A perfect orchestration and arrangement, telling a story of hope and perseverance. A new beginning.

I've watched this show when I've got to some of my lowest points. this show means so much to me and to so many other people like yourself. God bless!

I lost my father right before they brought Harmonious and Enchantment. Harmonious always hit the spot but Happily Ever After and Wishes never miss the mark since those are my memories with him. I'm right there with you.

[@randflam]

I’m a 13 year old. I rarely cry at things that are sentimental, but watching Happily Ever after last night really made me feel like I was home. It touched me in a way that nothing else has ever before.I was SHAKING. The tears were rolling down my face and I didn’t care. The Magic Kingdom is the best place in the world.

Just the way DLForever and Wondrous feel but even better

[@amandamacik5203]

It's the only one that elicits so much emotion from so many people. So, so good.

[@rjtavares1480]

Wishes is what I grew up on, so I think it still takes the cake for me as it is very dear to me, but I do love Happily Ever After

It honestly does!!

[@delaunfifield3490]

​@@floridaliving33881 WOKE: a dying modern Godless secular religion at war with traditional values and lacking in REALITY when it comes to its "tenants". Such as a man can be a women, a women can be a man. Despite FACTS to the contrary, EVERYTHING is fluid and NOTHING is "absolute". Everything is subjects to ones PERSONAL FEELINGS despite FACTS to the contrary. For example: a person could be born "white" but with a simple change of thought or identity, can become "black" or "hispanic", "Oriental" or even an "ardvaark" if so desired. The same thing as far as gender is concerned. Born male-but you can be female simply on a whim. Or visa versa despite the UNDENIABLE reality of XX and XY chromosomal make up. In the WOKE religion you are to ATTACK all those that have contrary thoughts or expression verbally. There is ZERO tolerance for contrary thinking or facts. When a "fact" gets in the way of woke thinking you must simply ignore the FACTS. Feelings are what matters-NOT contrary facts for you are the god of your own world no matter what reality states... Examples of this type of thinking are global warming, which is now known as "climate change" because of the lack of empirical evidence of any "warming". Or simple economics as the Gov't owes you everything because you have been hindered by modern capitalism. Although woke people could simply move to the socialist/communist country of their choice, they hold onto the FANTASY that America will one day become a "socialist" paradise. I am not certain if I "defined" woke as so much as I have given a short dissertation on it. I hope this enough to satisfy you....although I could go on if need be. Look for my book "The Woke Bible" some day soon......(mic drop heard at this point.....)

[@cyphor4916]

I was reading some of the comments. This is what Disney magic is really about. We are united together with this show and feel each others special meanings it brings. This is truly magical when Disney listens to it fans and delivers. Maybe they had planned to bring HEA back all along, maybe not. Thank you Disney, thank you Tom and staff for all you do to bring us this magic.

[@toddw8396]

To me, these lyric completely summarize the events of the past few years: “The battles, the stories, The losses and all the glories. We’re changed by the way We live every day.”

[@enzojayden1]

"Were changed by the way we live everyday" very true

[@DabidDynasty]

I started crying when I saw a child on someone shoulder dressed as a princess reaching out to the sky with both hands out during the go the distance song. This show is for the youth I bet that was a great moment for her 😭

[@jenniferstiles6353]

I just saw this live a few weeks ago. Never seen it before. My first Disney trip in 10 years. I cried like baby and had an experience that I knew would change me forever. It came at the perfect time in my life. I watch this almost everyday and it keeps inspiring me to follow my dreams. I cry everytime I watch it. Disney nailed this! It’s like nothing else. ❤

[@robertjaquez8286]

Can’t ignore the little details like your camera positioning and seeing Walt and mickeys silhouettes in the very middle of the archway! Great job!

[@bethkelly9206]

Mr. Walt Disney and Mr. Roy Disney are probably smiling and pleased in Heaven. I am so thankful that this was brought back and you shared it with all of us. Thank you so much.

[@spetsdod]

Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I appreciate that you kept the camera in one spot, and didn't over produce the video. I love some of the high quality recordings out there on KZbin, but they all keep changing the camera every 10 seconds and it makes it really hard to just enjoy the show. Thank you a thousand times.

[@BewareTheDarkness]

Saw this for the first time with my wife tonight. I was almost crying right there in the park. I'm so glad i found my happily ever after!

[@EL-te5om]

Hands down Disney's best ever firework show, seeing Happily Ever After again just brings happiness to slot of people. I hope the show stays for longer than expected!

[@Izzy-cp8yt]

Sobbed watching this for the first time a year ago, sobbed watching it again. I love this show so much.

[@claudineiguerra5599]

Thank you for sharing this moment, because I don't have the means to go to Disney, and watching it on KZbin makes me feel fulfilled.

[@joesichini5641]

My eyes always get teary when “you’ll be in my heart” starts to play. In this video and in person. I love HEA, by far the best firework and music show Disney does.

[@emmanuelgg8957]

Wonderful ! Thank you to bring the Magic around the world and here in France !

[@R4VNG3]

Man magic kingdom is always our last park at Disney world and this show makes me cry every time my family usually visits every park and rides every ride the fireworks really make you take it all in. After all the consecutive days of walking getting on rides seeing the fireworks is just magical. It’s also sad that this is the last part of your Disney journey so it’s kinda sad. Disney is such a magical experience it’s like we got to see all these characters and their worlds through the rides and you see the characters on the castle it’s just so magical. I am so thankful I got to experience the fireworks in person!

[@rachelwilliams1147]

I’ve never seen this in person, but I cry every time. Something about it just hits home and makes me feel like a child again, filled with wonderment and happiness.

[@youbetterwatchout4400]

It is really something to see in person. If you’re able to make it happen, please do. I saw it five years ago. This show has better technics and they changed a little bit here and there, for the better IMO. Disney probably learned from the first time.

[@courtneytatefigueroa1172]

This is the best fireworks show I've ever gotten to see! I mean it's made me cry each time! Thank you for giving us this video!! ❤

[@kaitlynking7513]

Well I'm crying. I just watched this at home in Australia and I'm balling like a baby! We visit for the first time this April 😭

The fact I can see Walt and Mickey holding hands and Cinderella’s castle in the background just adds to my magic Disney imagination and fills my heart with joy, happiness, tears of joy and peace. Disney forever ❤

Was there a few days ago…..got choked up during the little mermaid song….. it’s been 10 years since I’ve been back and it was truly overwhelming. So beautiful.

[@SfinxVid]

I was so sad that I had to move my second WDW trip from September last year to September this year due personal reasons but now I’m so happy I had to. Tron is open, seeing Happily Ever After again (my first trip WDW was February 2020 so I saw the show back then); delaying my trip a year might be the best thing in the end. Can’t wait to see this again in September!

Same with the fireworks, also added some old, some are improved and new.

[@tigerwareagle1485]

Last night was our last evening at WDW. It was several weeks ago when I lost my great aunt. Just this past week during my trip to Disney, I did a 10K RunDisney event to try and prove to doubters that I can do anything if I put my mind to it. And while I was running, the one person I thought of was my late great aunt who was laid to rest outside Miami (not far from Disney World). So watching this firework show last night with the thoughts of my great aunt racing through my mind brought tears to my eyes. Thank you Disney for putting a smile on my face again and lifting my spirits after such a personal tragic year thus far. Hopefully things will be better down the road. And to those of you that are dealing with something tragic, personal in your life, don’t give up and keep moving forward! I promise you, you’ll make it!

I would agree with some that this is one of the best shows no disrespect to the others but this one takes the cake for me I do get teary eyed every time I watch it

[@Liv-me7cd]

just saw this in person last night . Omg gave my chills the entire time. INCREDIBLE. no explanation needed.

[@EuiHwanP]

Tinker Bell's costume didn't light up when I saw the show two weeks ago, so I actually had to spot her flying in the air as she came near to where I was standing, but having to actually look for her and spot her in the dark night sky made everything so much more magical and emotional.

[@iimchloegrace]

As someone who has watched Wishes, Happily Ever After and Enchantment in person, I can definitely say that HEA makes me cry and have the biggest smile on my face every single time

I worked at the Emporium in 2017, so we likely had the same experiences with the show! So happy to hear it's back, it was such a special evening soundtrack for me and my colleagues :')

[@nellAx19]

Watched a side by side of the last show to this. I think I noticed a lot more laser light and smoke after the "battle" scene. It might just be because the wind wasn't pushing it out as much, but it looked so cool with the castle all destroyed! So glad this show is back!
