TRANSCRIPT:

Welcome to Attraction Checklist.

It's time to cap off our night at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom with a showing of Happily Ever After.

The Walt Disney World Website describes this attraction saying: Don't miss this astounding fireworks extravaganza featuring lights, lasers and special effects––including all-new projections down Main Street, U.S.A.

There are no height requirements for this attraction, though you probably want to be taller than the person sitting in front of you.

Before we let the wonder take hold, here are five fast facts about Happily Ever After.

1. Happily Ever After officially debuted at Magic Kingdom on May 12, 2017.

2. The music for the show was arranged by Tim Heintz.

3. The show's theme song, Happily Ever After, was written by Adam Watts, Melissa Peirce, and Andy Dodd, and performed by Angie Keilhauer and Jordan Fisher.

4. The original version of the show closed on September 29, 2021, but reopened with new projection mapping effects and more on April 3, 2023.

5. The title of the show and the theme song both came from Hong Kong Disneyland's 10th anniversary celebration.

Let's go get our seats for Happily Ever After. After the show I'll give you my thoughts on this classic attraction. This is a binaural recording so if you have headphones put them on now as we listen to Happily Ever After at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.
