Fodor's Expert Review Happily Ever After
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
When the lights dim on Main Street and familiar film tunes fill the air, you know the fireworks extravaganza is about to begin. In Happily Ever After, popular Disney animated films are explored using song, fireworks, projections, and lasers. Cinderella Castle is transformed with spectacular projection technology for each musical segment of this 18-minute visual treat, from the title tune through familiar songs from nearly 20 Disney films. Snippets of the animated films appear on the castle's parapets and spires, and for some segments, the castle itself appears to become animated. Check the Times Guide for performance time, which varies seasonally.
You can book a Fastpass+ ahead of your visit for best viewing. The castle forecourt and surrounding bridges offer great views; or find a place near the front of the park for a quick postshow exit.
