Not sure. It could be cruise related since the Disney SMMC is now on the Disney Wonder for a few days.

‘Beauty and the Beast’ to Become a Brand-New Stage Spectacular Aboard Disney Cruise Line

Ok...Now what will Disney announce at D23? I have never seen so much announced in a span of 4 days since a D23 convention!

I did see that it was announced that there will be a new Beauty and the Beast stage show on the Disney Dream starting Nov 6th - but not sure if this is the item referred to

Oh my Disney. So many announcements in so little time. I'm overwhelmed. Rivers of light is now active with fastpass+ options. Pandora has official opening date. New show for cruise ship. New magic kingdom night time show. Am I missing something else?!' Wow what a week.

Thinks Ng the exact same thing - a lot of people have an emotional connection to Wishes (probably more than any other show) - myself included

I will say the music featured in the preview video gave me a similar feeling as that in Wishes so I am cautiously optimistic

Huge emotional connection here. I knew the rumor about Wishes ending would come to fruition soon enough, but I'm still sad I won't get to see it one last time. I didn't get to see it on our last trip (silly children and their bedtimes), and I kind of look at it as my coming of age connection to Disney. I'm that super cheesy person who would watch the show and think of the wishes in my life I would like to come true; During my CP stint thinking about graduating, then as a newly engaged person thinking about my future husband, then a newly married person thinking about future children, then taking my children to experience the magic.

That said, it really is time for something new. The new show looks really promising. I'm excited to see all the projections, but as a really short person, I'm excited they're still going to have pyro part of the show since that's mostly what I can see of the nighttime shows anyway.

And I hope they include Tangled in this one!

When I said I wanted a night parade, this isn't quite what I meant

I've never taken the time to see this, so for me, it's better than nothing. I might watch it during my next trip. It's not a nighttime parade, but at least they are adding something.

They didn't add anything though - they shifted the schedule so that instead of 3 shows at 11/1230/545, there are 3 shows at 1230/545/715

Wishes is also currently showing at 8PM on weeknights, which means there is even less of a transition time between parade and fireworks than there was with MSEP running 1 hour before fireworks, making Main Street even more of a cluster on those nights than it was

That will be a bit odd having a nighttime 'parade' with no lights on it.

Oh I am right there with you - watching Wishes with my kids is super emotional ... I mentioned in another spot that were I to ever get a Disney related tattoo it would have the phrase "See what a little wishing can do" as part of it

Hopefully they have learned form other projection shows and this is the best of projections, best of pyro, best of music, etc.

might be unpopular, and realize I am someone who is at WDW more than DLR so we still have ToT, but I think it looks pretty good and when that whole area is redone I think it could have a really cool feel
