BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted April 4, 2019 Report Share Posted April 4, 2019 I seriously double checked the date to make sure if wasn't 4/1 when I first read this headline LOL. Keep in mind this isn't "Disney Official" yet, so I'd consider this a rumor for now... Quote Jet Skis to be Used for “Epcot Forever” Illuminations Replacement Show by MIKE APRIL 4, 2019 Some new details about nighttime entertainment were recently posted to blooloop. In the article, we get some new information about Epcot Forever, the interim nighttime show coming to World Showcase Lagoon when Illuminations permanently ends at the end of this summer. Epcot Forever will feature music that will celebrate the past of Epcot as Disney prepares for its future with an all-new show coming in 2020. As part of the show, Disney will employ “special effects-enabled kites” that will be capable of aerial choreography. The illuminated kites will be controlled by multiple two-man teams aboard “Jet Ski-like” watercraft. There will be eight Jet Skis in total, with a driver and kite performer on each watercraft. The Jet Skis are needed to keep the kites aloft. It’s interesting that Disney chose this route over drones, which are being widely used in the entertainment industry and were even in use at Disney Springs for the holiday season in 2016. Disney will use both “One Little Spark” and “Magic Journeys” in the Epcot Forever nighttime show. http://blogmickey.com/2019/04/jet-skis-to-be-used-for-epcot-forever-illuminations-replacement-show/?fbclid=IwAR2Dm7apWJXAZI5whBwY3fgU2P5lZ7kOIp7HwgGefIYLyEBUOxK4jltGQLs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveInTN 3,247 Posted April 4, 2019 Report Share Posted April 4, 2019 That sounds ridiculous. And yet it appears to be true...although to your point, I guess the jet skis are not confirmed. But everyone knows you need jet skis to truly stabilize your special effects enabled kites. https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/entertainment/epcot/epcot-forever/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
