Disney has Announced End Date and Replacement For ‘Illuminations’

Rumors and talk about the end of Illuminations: Reflections of Earth has been going on for months. Everyone has been speculating about the possibility of a replacement for the Epcot night-time fireworks show. The current show has been around for 20 years and featured torches, fireworks, music and lights on the water of the World Showcase Lagoon. It’s been due for an update.

Disney has confirmed today that the Illuminations show will end by the “second half” of 2019 and a new show, as part of the “transformation of Epcot” will begin immediately after.

The Disney Parks Live Entertainment team is already busy creating new thrills to debut immediately following the conclusion of “IllumiNations,” continuing the tradition of nightly entertainment on the World Showcase Lagoon

No information about the new show is currently available, but people have speculated about the replacement possibly using drones.

For now all we know for sure is that Illuminations: Reflections of Earth will wrap up in 2019 and a new show is going to follow immediately afterwards.
