Guests can view two nighttime fireworks shows at Walt Disney World. At Magic Kingdom, Disney’s Enchantment is shown each night. If you are at EPCOT, you can check out the spectacular Harmonious show. For a review of dessert parties for both shows, check out the posts HERE and HERE.

Firework showtimes fluctuate throughout the seasons, and we will see even more changing showtimes as we head into the fall and winter months. Check out the current showtimes HERE.

There are also a few new showtimes for Mickey’s Magical Friendship Faire castle stage show. As always, be sure to check Character Locator for updated show schedules.

Can view fireworks from my Lani near Fort wilderness and it's loud but won't be jumping out of bed at midnight. We also enjoy the sweet music from the water pageant.
