OH WOW! for a filler show, this one really is moving to me…taking me back to my very first visit to WDW as a high school senior. I find myself singing along with just about every song…only one visit…but so impacted me. So much of the music for the original attractions was so hopefilled and future looking…hard to not be moved by it. I had to warn a buddy with me when this show was first used pre-covid that I would be tearing up for nostalgia…but then got to watch him awestruck by the fireworks and kites (don’t forget the first incarnation of this show had those neat kites!!). The original lyrics to “One Little Spark," “Tomorrow’s Child,” and “Horizons” just get to me. Then comes the music from the millennial celebration!! (lots of happy nostalgic tears) Thank you for this EXCELLENT view of this show!!!
This show really is perfect for longtime Epcot fans! Those kites were such an important part of the show, I wish they’d bring them back now that the barges are gone! But even without them, I really love this show and will miss it when it’s gone. Who knows though, maybe they’ll bring it back again some time! Thanks so much as always Rick! 😃
This is so much better than Harmonious. I feel like half the time during the Harmonious show I’m watching that octopus thing shoot water out of its tentacles. The soundtrack is also not original. A lot is used from Disney movies. Epcot Forever is an actual fireworks spectacular. They should keep this or, even better, bring back an enhanced IllumiNations.
I honestly think that any fireworks show that Epcot does should include the song Imagination because Figment is the mascot of Epcot. He is the figment of your imagination which you could say Epcot’s Imagination. So putting that song would be highly important for Epcot.
They should have kept Harmonious. This was very standard. Nothing to get choked up about. By the time I come back in October, hopefully there will be a fireworks 🎆 display to get excited about. COME ON DISNEY!!
Thank you for capturing a great video now that those horrific barges are gone. I love this show, it’s so much fun and a great tribute to all us old school epcot fans
Same here, I really love this show! Glad it was brought back, but the new show is supposed to debut before the end of the year. I hope Epcot Forever will still be here when you arrive! I’m not hearing any news on the new show, so I’m hoping it’s delayed
Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful!!! This was amazing! Your filming & camera did an outstanding job! I felt as if I was there! Epcot Forever is a great show! Thank you for Sharing!
Epcot is my favorite park and I got to catch it a week ago while visiting on my 23rd birthday! Got to watch it while eating the fondue from the Alps food and wine booth and teared up at this tribute to my favorite theme park! Thanks for capturing it so well so I can go back to it and tear up again while thinking of that great memory!
Yep for sure! Haha I wonder if Chapek requested to get the barges installed in his pool once they removed them from the lagoon 😂 Thanks so much as always!
I know this is a very divisive show, fireworks wise it’s not the best. Musically, it’s old Epcot so I love it. A lot of younger or newer to Epcot fans,aren’t going to get it .
I think you said it best Jen! The fireworks definitely aren’t the best, but the music is the heart of the show! It’s crazy how people either love or hate this show, but I guess it makes sense since many have no idea what the songs are from lol. Thanks so much as always!
I agree with you. Our last trip was in 2010 and I feel like this show is missing something. We have family going for their first visit and have shown them previous videos. I feel they may be disappointed including myself.
🎆So enjoyable, even its brevity, because what it presents gets to the point & is old school. I find myself humming this into the next day. To me, music is a big part of Epcot's shows. The line, Veggie, fruit, fruit, will live on thru these vids. Glad you got YOUR spot on the 4th💥 - that tag is awesome & one of your best fireworks vids. 💜
I agree Liz, I’m so glad this show was made. Illuminations will always be my favorite, but this one is definitely 2nd. It’s funny to me how many old Epcot fans love this show, but guests who don’t care/know about Epcot’s history absolutely hate it and don’t understand it. That’s definitely why this show can’t be permanent unfortunately, but I honestly wish it was(if we can’t have Illuminations). Thank you so much for always being so kind Liz😊
@@4KWDW Their art is nothing to me! The art is confusing to me. I don't even know where Figment came from! I don't even care about the night time show! I think Epcot should've been a different park in my opinion.
Beautiful 🤩 A tribute to a man and his imagination!! My favorite to be tapestry of nations. What was yours? Howard Ashman would have loved the whole new world segment!😊👍🏻❤️
I wish they would have done this show like this did Disneyland forever where each ride got its own section And original auto and projection images mixed in that would have put this show over the top for sure
Its okay but I dont think it stands up to Harmonious which used the water lights fireworks and just plain fire effects. But thats ok maybe some day they will make something that works long term.
This firework shows a little on the short side, but I like how it features, the history of Epcot. And it is only a temporary show which I will get to see in a few weeks. For those people who are getting jealous, my Countdown is 15 days away.
The Nostalgia in me wants this to stay forever, however...I do understand why Disney decided to go with Luminous. To be honest so many modern guests to Epcot were born after a lot of the old rides closed so the average guests aren't as tied to them. Disney has learned that allowing their guests to sing along with more traditionally familiar tunes is much more effective for nighttime spectaculars. While Luminous isn't as IP-specific as Harmonius was, and while it does try to pander to the Epcot Fan crowd, it barely misses the mark in the middle. The first minute is pure Epcot in my opinion, however after that, it's pretty standard Disney. However, I will give them credit that they at least tried to weave the songs into the story, unlike when Disney usually does the whole " random best of's" for their shows. Had they tried harder to combine Luminous with this show they would've had something AMAZING on their hands, definitely a worthy successor to Illuminations. My heart honestly goes out to all of those in these comments who said they were excited to see this show this winter only to have Luminous premier this month :( Hopefully this could become a sort of seasonal show. Y'know played yearly around Epcot's Birthday or something like that. Disneyland used to do that with Remember Dream's Come True, so I don't see why not. With a phenomenal score like this is feels wrong to let it be wasted.
This show was so much better than harmonious!! Harmonious felt like something that should've been in magic kingdom. This at least has some care put into it!
hey 4k wdw what is your favorite food you like to get in Epcot and what is your favorite restaurant in Epcot and what is your favorite drink you get in Epcot and after the fireworks go to cub cool to get a drink
I’d say my favorite resort as of now is Via Napoli in the Italy Pavilion! I don’t really have a favorite drink, as I just drink water nonstop haha. Thanks for watching as always!
I find it so fascinating how people think this show is better than Harmonious... I completely get that the music and entire vibe of this show is very nostalgic - but its FAR less magical than Harmonious was. This show hits a very niche demographic in my opinion whereas Harmonious hits genuinely everyone from everywhere. Being a musically inclined person also, the music in this is awful in comparison... Harmonious makes me cry LISTENING to the recording without even watching whereas this did neither :( That said, Harmonious did seem like it was a Magic Kingdom show. But the use of all the different languages from all the countries was just SO innovative. EPCOT Forever just seems really self-obsessive in comparison rip
Exactly. The music and singing in this show hurt my ears. This show is so vanilla. Just meh. Nothing special. It’s “classic” and boring. Harmonious showcased the diversity of the world. Crazy to me how people don’t think that fit in “World Showcase”. I understand the barges were an “eyesore” but the pyrotechnic choreography and music was above and beyond.
@@edbd4613Epcot forever was a cute little show though the music is part of Epcot history and the songs represent the message Walt wanted in the park though it was never meant to be spectacular this show is only filling in whenever Disney is making a new show it’s really not that bad it could’ve been worse besides the music isn’t terrible it’s just right for families to enjoy until Disney brings a better show in

Tapestry of nations is the fan favorite is the part of illuminations
illuminations has great music for Epcot Forever
IllumiNations is the best. No candle could ever hold a brighter flame in my heart.

illuminations and Epcot Forever has the original songs that brings Disney together with the Little spark
illuminations creates art
Epcot Forever has imagination and discovery

Harmonious was terrible. This one was far better
I agree harmonious was a lot better than this show. Harmonious felt like an international party where this feels like show at a local fair
@@x8nisI don’t find anything cool in this one, it’s just fireworks
Illuminations was perfect
Epcot Forever plays the original music as a tribute of illuminations
illuminations has return in the Tapestry of Nations segment
The spirit of illuminations is in our grasp We are celebrate the future
Well this was amazing it was like Independence Day and the Broadway Theater all rolled into one
Thank you for capturing a great video now that those horrific barges are gone. I love this show, it’s so much fun and a great tribute to all us old school epcot fans
So glad to see ‘Epcot Forever’ back!! Looking forward to seeing it in person this winter! So very nostalgic!!👏👏

Absolutely amazing! Disney doing what Disney does best!
I feel absolutely blessed to have experienced this. Very emotional

great video miss the kites this show had in its short first run
Its okay but I dont think it stands up to Harmonious which used the water lights fireworks and just plain fire effects. But thats ok maybe some day they will make something that works long term.
Anyone know where I can find that children’s chorus of “One Little Spark” as a soundtrack?
This firework shows a little on the short side, but I like how it features, the history of Epcot. And it is only a temporary show which I will get to see in a few weeks. For those people who are getting jealous, my Countdown is 15 days away.
Enjoy it!! And the whole visit!!
I'm looking forward to the epic stream🤩
I’m glad you’ll be able to see it on your trip! Hoping the new show gets delayed a bit so this one can live on a little while longer lol
I loved it so much 🥰🥰🥰
Beautiful work 4K!!!!!!! You're getting good at this!!! LOL Just kidding...You're videos are the best WDW content on here.
Haha I always appreciate your support Steve! Thank you so much my friend😃
Harmonious is not fan favorite of Epcot illuminations is the fan favorite of Epcot
illuminations and Epcot Forever has great music and fireworks with the original music the one with veggie fruit and the Tapestry of Nations
illuminations has great music and fireworks the one that plays the Tapestry of Nations is the part of Epcot
We want bring back illuminations this what Epcot Forever plays the original music

Harmonious sucked imo. It replace IllumiNations and was such a disappointment to my family.
@@sarahjewel784 I totally agree!! It didn't fit what Epcot is at all! It felt so corporate and hollow.
It might only be a temporary filler but it’s a good little show 😊
Yep for sure! It’s definitely great for nostalgic Epcot fans!
They should’ve never got rid of illuminations. I never got to see Epcot forever but I saw harmonious one and was downright disgusted.
At least it's better than kite tails
hey 4k wdw what is your favorite food you like to get in Epcot and what is your favorite restaurant in Epcot and what is your favorite drink you get in Epcot and after the fireworks go to cub cool to get a drink
I’d say my favorite resort as of now is Via Napoli in the Italy Pavilion! I don’t really have a favorite drink, as I just drink water nonstop haha. Thanks for watching as always!
