IllumiNations 25b

Epcot

Description

IllumiNations25 was created for the 25th Aninversary of Walt Disney World and was comprised of the same components as IllumiNations but added four more fireworks barges, a new story line, new music, and all new programming. IllumiNations continues to grow and changes in the future will help to keep it the ultimate night-time spectacular that it has come to be known as.

The 'A' revision of the show only played for a few months before being replaced with the 'B' version of the show. The 'B' version of the show made a return to more classical orchestration. It used the same hardware as 'A', but was totally reprogrammed for the new music.

IllumiNations 25 Version B premiered on May 20th, 1997 and ran until being replaced by IllumiNations 2000: Reflections of Earth in September 1999.
