Might I also add that the building is massive; looks much bigger in person than I expected! I'd say that it looks at least 100ft tall!
Thanks for the clarification @Craig! So it wasn't my eyes failing me when I thought it didn't look much shorter than Spaceship Earth!Yup it's absolutely massive, 133ft to be exact! Definitely much much bigger looking in person. I knew they were gutting the building, but it's still insane to see right through it like you can now.
it’s only a temp show bridging the gap between illuminations real replacement show- HarmonioUS. It’s expected the new show will takeover from Epcot forever in May 2020
More likely May 2021... You can't get the most return out of a big show in 6 months of performances. It'll still be there throughout 2020, as they have too much other stuff going on at Epcot to mess with that again too.
Disney said:In 2020, following the limited-time run of “Epcot Forever,” the new “HarmonioUS” will debut as the largest nighttime spectacular ever created for a Disney park. It will celebrate how the music of Disney inspires people the world over, carrying you away harmoniously on a stream of familiar Disney tunes reinterpreted by a diverse group of artists from around the globe. “HarmonioUS” will feature massive floating set pieces, custom-built LED panels, choreographed moving fountains, lights, pyrotechnics, lasers and more.
It's fireworks going up over a lake. The end. I will never understand people who over analyse every aspect of a Disney night time show. Sure they are a nice way to end the day at a Disney park and that's it for me. I don't get the fanboys obsession with them. It's just fireworks guys.
Im going to get a lot of flack for this but Iluminations reflections of earth was Iboth my and my partners least favourite nighttime show at WDW when we went in May. I can't understand why its so highly rated by folks (my bets are on nostalgia).
It just seemed to me a bit generic and didn't do anything unique like the other night time shows.
Yes, I even preferred Rivers of Light....
Cheers. Think that clears it up. Epcot was our least favourite park because if you don't love boozing, shopping and eating your way round the world there isn't much else to do in its current state.I don’t understand people who like tennis, it’s 2 people hitting a ball at each other and yet people do enjoy it.
It’s shocking I know that folk like different things but at least Disney firework shows are less invasive on the TV schedule than Wimbledon.
The music is what most people liked, plus it’s not full of IP’s. Besides you can get drunk at Epcot and fireworks are always better boozed up

Tee-total fussy eater who doesn't like shopping, reporting in.
I don't rate epcot at all, unsurprisingly.
