Fireworks light up the sky and illuminated image projections
create a patriotic canvas on the exterior on Cinderella Castle
at the Magic Kingdom in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. July 3, 2008. It
was all part of a surprise preview for Walt Disney World theme
park guests of the Fourth of July fireworks show entitled,
"Disney's Celebrate America - A Fourth of July Concert in the
Sky." The show will be presented July 4th at 9 p.m. in the Magic
Kingdom park.
A popular July
4th tradition at Walt Disney World Resort will continue this
year as star-spangled salutes to America's independence are
presented all across the Florida Vacation Kingdom.
Here's some of
the fireworks fun scheduled for July 4 this year:
A Fourth of
July "Concert in the Sky" will light up the night at Magic
Kingdom in honor of Independence Day. Featuring a
magnificent display of aerial fireworks, dazzling
pyrotechnic effects and dynamic music, the show, entitled
"Disney's Celebrate America!-A Fourth of July Concert in the
Sky," is a grand tribute to the United States, its people
and traditions. The special show is scheduled for 9 p.m.
Magic Kingdom also will feature two performances of the "SpectroMagic"
nighttime parade, first at 10:30 p.m. and then again at
12:30 a.m. that same night.
A
holiday-inspired finale will be added to Epcot's nightly
fireworks extravaganza, "Illuminations: Reflections of
Earth." The park's American Adventure pavilion also will
feature enhanced entertainment throughout the day, with
visits from historic characters who will share their
stories. American Adventure also will feature additional
performances of its signature musical group, Voices of
Liberty, performing patriotic classics.
Disney's
Hollywood Studios will present a special July 4th fireworks
show at 9 p.m., with skyrockets and patriotic music filling
the air at the showbiz-themed park. The park's popular "Fantasmic!"
show, featuring fireworks, animation, dancing waters and
Disney characters, will be presented on July 4 at 10:30 p.m.
Downtown
Disney will present July 4th fireworks at 10:30 p.m. for the
revelers, shoppers and diners enjoying the nighttime
entertainment district.
Disney's Pleasure Island
Closing September 27!
Walt Disney World is shutting down the six
nightclubs at Pleasure Island to make its party district at
Downtown Disney more family friendly.
BET SoundStage Club, Mannequins Dance Palace,
8Trax and three other clubs that have for years catered largely
to young, single adults -- rather than to Disney's
bread-and-butter family market -- will close after Sept. 27.
We saw the preview of the new
Independence Day fireworks show at the Magic Kingdom on Thursday
night...WOW what a nice show...very nice special effects with
fireworks and special lighting on the castle and trees!
