Disney Star Idina Menzel to Host Special Livestream Of Nighttime Spectacular on June 21!

One of the most amazing things about Disney is all of the amazing music that they have created over the years. From Oscar-winning songs like “Under the Sea” from The Little Mermaid and “Colors of the Wind” from Pocahontas, to popular ones that people can’t get out of their heads like “Un Poco Loco” from Coco and “Surface Pressure” from one of Disney’s newest films, Encanto. Disney has a legacy for creating beautiful songs that become pieces of music history.

Harmonious was one of two brand-new shows created to celebrate Walt Disney World’s 50th anniversary — the other one being Disney Enchantment, which is shown at the Magic Kingdom. Harmonious takes place on World Showcase Lagoon and features floating screens, moving fountains, gorgeous light effects, and pyrotechnics.

If you haven’t had the chance to see Harmonious yet, here is more information on the show from the Walt Disney World website:

The heart of the Epcot transformation comes to life with Harmonious, one of the largest nighttime spectaculars ever created for Disney Parks.

This magnificent new show brings to World Showcase Lagoon an innovative combination of floating giant screens, choreographed moving fountains, lights, pyrotechnics and lasers in a 360-degree view. Enter amazing worlds inspired by Moana, Aladdin, Coco, Brave, The Lion King, Mulan, The Princess and the Frog and other classic stories.
