Your trip is so close, Mary. The excitement must be palpable!
As a result of the pandemic, there are
health and safety measures in place throughout Walt Disney World Resort right now. These updates have put a
temporary pause on some entertainment options. Currently, fireworks and parades are not available. Not to worry, though; a magical vacation is still waiting for you. There are so many things to
see and do in the theme parks! Take, for example, the
Character Cavalcades that scoot along the parade route at Magic Kingdom for spontaneous fun. Similar experiences happen daily at the other parks as well.
In place of settling in to watch the fireworks, you might consider booking dinner at Disney's Contemporary Resort.
The Wave... of American Flavors is an excellent choice, especially for a last-minute reservation. After dinner, you can walk out towards the Seven Seas Lagoon and watch the
Electrical Water Pageant. Or maybe you'd rather stroll around Disney Springs. If you're staying in one of the hotels in the Disney Resort Collection, you might also check the schedule for a
Movie Under the Stars. Any of these might be a worthy alternative to fireworks.
I also wanted to point out that you're traveling during the
Taste of Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival. I hope you've made plans to visit; it's a spring event where beauty blooms around every corner!
Hopefully, these tips will inspire some extra magic during your vacation, Mary. Have a great time!
