Hi,
Are "Glow with the Show" ears, etc. still available?

What shows/parades/fireworks do they work with?

Thanks!

1. Yes. (They are now called, "Made with Magic," but they are the same thing as GwtS.)
2. Virtually all "nighttime spectaculars" at WDW.

(There is currently no nighttime parade performing at WDW.)
 
No wonder I couldn't find it. LOL.

When it says "Epcot World Showcase" does that mean Illuminations?

Also, after Wishes goes away, I'm assuming that it will work with the new Happily Ever After show?

I want to purchase them for my two boys, but I want to be able to use more than once.
We have plans to see Fantasmic!, Illuminations, Star Wars fireworks, and Happily Ever After.

Thanks.

The items will change based on each country, not just with Illuminations. Illuminations will override the country when the show starts
As far as I can tell, the color changes are based on each countries flag (so in Mexico they flash Red/White/Green, in America Red/White/Blue) though there may be more specific interactions that I am unaware of

To confirm, yes Made with Magic will be integrated into Happily Ever After.
 
I can't believe they're still trying to sell us on those glowing ears...

It was always a fundamentally flawed concept, because we want to watch the show, not the glow. And, you're the one who has to shell out for them, but you won't see them glow.

Totally agree! If literally everyone was wearing them, it would be awesome! But with just a few people it makes no sense to me either.

Didn't mean be to negative towards OP, just thought I was the only one thinking this!
 
I got a 60th anniversary DL version with the magic paintbrush as well so I can change the colors to whatever I want at home. Makes it infinitely more bang for your buck! (Did WDW ever do anything like this? I remember taking my paintbrush to WDW and using it on the ears there).
 
The annoying thing about Glow with the Show is this: when the theme park public failed to embrace the concept, Disney never could drop it. For years they kept hammering away at this, as if endlessly bugging us to buy the damn things would make us warm up to the idea -- instead of annoying us. It was the same problem with Duffy the Disney Bear. They just kept trying to shove him down our throats.

I purchased a wand similar to the paintbrush that does the same things with the ears. It is really neat! My kiddos love them! We haven't been to Disney since buying them yet, but plan to use them on our trip this summer.

When they came out at DL, everyone has having wars trying to turn everyone else's ears to their color. The angle and distance on those things is really impressive! I would point at an area of people in front of me and it could change like a dozen ears at the same time.

Love this! I can totally see my kids doing this! LOL! They have had a blast playing with them already at home. I definitely think they have been a worthwhile purchase :)

My kids are guilty of walking through the park changing the colors of everyone's ears. They had a great time trying to be sneaky about it so no one could tell who was making the change.
 
Our Made with Magic ear hats arrived! We are going to sneak them into the room with some other things before they boys get there. So excited to see them in action!

I may have to get the sorcerers want, it sounds really neat LOL.
