Guests staying near the Magic Kingdom may have awoken this morning to Disney testing its brand new fireworks show, Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular, that will debut this year during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. The tests occurred early in the morning on August 6 and featured a full run of the show’s fireworks, projections and lighting.
Big thanks to Blog Mickey for capturing this early-morning preview from the Contemporary Resort.
It’s worth noting that perimeter fireworks weren’t used during this test. However, that doesn’t necessarily mean that they won’t be used in the final version of the show. Perimeter fireworks that surround guests with roughly 180 degrees of fireworks have been a staple of the Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party spectacular, and we’d be surprised to see them removed.
Disney previously released a summary for the show:
Jack Skellington from Tim Burtonโs โThe Nightmare Before Christmasโ serves as the host of this all-new nighttime extravaganza, with state-of-the-art projection effects, lasers, lighting and dazzling fireworks filling the sky above Magic Kingdom Park. Jack has come to tell a not-so-scary story about how anything can happen on Halloween night. Jackโs ghost dog, Zero, then flies off carrying everyone along on a trick-or-treating adventure, where four friends โ Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Goofy โ find themselves drawn into a mysterious haunted house.
Believe it or not, Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party begins in just a few short days on August 16, 2019.
