After more than a year of silent nights in West Orange, Walt Disney World’s fireworks are returning.

Disney World officials announced the theme park’s “Happily Ever After” will return July 1 to Magic Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World Resort. The nighttime show transforms Cinderella Castle with lights, projections and pyrotechnics, featuring favorite Disney stories and songs.

In addition, “EPCOT Forever,” the fireworks, music and lighting effects show over World Showcase Lagoon, also returns July 1 to EPCOT. The show highlights themes of innovation, exploration, imagination and celebration at the core of the park’s past, present and future.
