Backstage Construction Continues on HarmonioUS at Epcot; New Show Elements Spotted

    With the announcement of a spring 2020 start date for the long-term Illuminations replacement, HarmonioUS, Disney is steadily making progress on preparations for the new show. While we’ve been watching some work take place on World Showcase Lagoon, the majority of the work is taking place backstage, in a staging area for the new show.

    Our friend @bioreconstruct recently took to the skies to capture a look at the latest progress, spotting some new show elements under construction. As you can see in the photos below, bioreconstruct was able to spot some spotlight arms

    To better understand what these arms will be used for in the show, we can take a trip over to The Epcot Experience to watch them in action during an animated preview of the show. As you can see, the arms will swing out during the show, shining spotlights into the night sky in what will certainly be an amazingly beautiful moment.

    A wider shot shows how each of the show elements and respective arms might paint the night sky with spotlights during a crescendo of the show.

    To round out this post, we’ll head back out to World Showcase Lagoon where Cast Members look to be working on electrical for the upcoming HarmonioUS nighttime spectacular at Epcot!
