Villain's Land Fireworks Show....Hear me out.

[sixstylez]

As excited as I am about Cars land and Villain's land in Magic Kingdom, I can't help but be bothered by the elephant in the room. While increasing capacity in a park is ultimately a good thing for wait times and overall guest comfort, this is the park that EVERYONE gathers in one area at the end of the night for the fireworks. This heightened capacity is only going to lead to even more crowds for the fireworks and mass exodus at the end of the night.

I have seen in the concept art there seems to be a castle in the new Villains Land. Since majority of the main/large fireworks are actually shot off from behind the park, what if they setup a new imagineered viewing area (think vilified main street) that ended with a villain's castle angled so the same fireworks were being shot off "above" it. This could be accompanied with evil projection mapping on the castle and surroundings as well.

Happily Ever After doesn't really fit the villain's vibe? What if it was a different song entirely but specifically written to work in sync with the whatever the current main fireworks show is. This is not small feat, but I can't think of anyone better than Disney to pull it off.

Magic Kingdom is already nearly a two day park, and that will be even further solidified with the addition of these two lands. Assuming Cinderella's castle will always be the best show viewing, who wouldn't go see the villains side on their second day? This would geographically spread out the most crowded and arguably most stressful part of the MK experience across 2 lands.

This is my Blue Sky hope

Well, they actually did this at Disneyland for Season of the Force. If you watched the fireworks from Galaxy's Edge, which is in the northwest corner of the park there, they played different music to the same pyrotechnics. They called it "Fire of the Rising Moons" or something like that. It's definitely something they are experimenting with.

Cool! No I had no idea! That would be such a good way to double your fireworks shows without doubling the show's budget.

Yeah, I feel like it should be a permanent thing, though they change shows at DL often, and it was only synched up to one of them. At MK, it shouldn't be difficult to synch up tot he usual show or design a new one with both views in mind.

Now add a separate exit, even if it's just a bus route to MK resort busses and TTC at the end of the night and we are set!

I think this 'land' will be like the new fantasy land area from 7-8 years ago. Rather small.
The plans changed alot and it has a 'castle' but small. At one time the plans had multiple castle, for each princess.
A 'LAND' is not a true name ,more of a section for cars /villians.
