Happily Ever After makes its long-awaited return to Magic Kingdom on April 3, 2023, and new this year is the addition of projections along the length of Main Street U.S.A.


The projectors were installed for Walt Disney World's 50th celebration as part of Disney Enchantment.

Apart from the projections on Main Street U.S.A., the returning Happily Ever After is nearly identical to the original 2017 version, including the full firework load in place of the cutback versions which appeared over the years.

Watch the video below to see more of Happily Ever After from its recent preview performance. 'Happily Ever After' will return at 9pm on April 3, 2023.

We could use the showtimes for Disney Dreams that Soar. It debuts in a little more than a month. It's still not on MDE or the website yet all.

Here are a couple upcoming showtime changes for Happily Ever After: beginning April 21, the showtime moves from 8:45pm to 9pm, and on May 12, the showtime shifts to 9:20pm through at least June 11.

It’ll be Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular by then.

Very true.

Is there any way for me to see Enchantment during August 2024?

Magic kingdom on the whole is in dire need of help

TTA94Mar 28, 2024

Maybe unpopular opinion but I think MKs entertainment all around is in dire need of help. FoF is a disaster now a days, the cavalcade is Meh, HEA is still a good show but I wouldn’t say it’s mind blowing. HEA either needs an upgrade or a night parade to accompany it. Which I guess the latter is what’s in the plans.

They vaporize guests who shoplift.

Main Street Lasers?

jrhwdwMar 28, 2024

Honestly.... I don’t understand why Main Street's Lasers are so on and off... As far as Main Street's Projections, I wonder what the average Guest thinks, The Projections were marketed when HEA returned.

They're only allowed to have one show running at 100% at a time. It's luminous' turn
