The fifth and final barge for Epcot’s new nighttime show Harmonious has been moved into position. The fourth taco-shaped barge has joined the others around the primary ring barge.
The final barge has been anchored closest to the Germany Pavilion.

We now have a full picture of how the five massive barges impact the views around World Showcase. Summarized, the old sightlines across the lagoon are now obstructed by the show pieces.

Now that all the barges are anchored, Disney can begin testing the show on a larger scale. The barges can now be tested as a unit rather than just individually. To date, we’ve seen tests involving the fountains, basic lighting and the movable arms.
An opening date for Harmonious hasn’t been announced at this time.
