Aerial Photo Update of EPCOT’s “HarmonioUS” Construction Site

Posted by: Jamie Sylvester November 2, 2020 Comments Off on Aerial Photo Update of EPCOT’s “HarmonioUS” Construction Site

Before COVID-19 took hold, Epcot’s newest nighttime spectacular was scheduled to debut in late summer 2020. Disney announced “HarmonioUS” is set to be one of the largest nighttime spectaculars ever created for a Disney Park. While we have yet to learn of a debut date, we were thrilled to see aerial photos showing the construction progress for HarmonioUS… meaning progress is in fact being made despite Disney’s current hold on nighttime entertainment. Bioreconstruct took to Twitter to share photos of the construction site with notes as follows from November 1.
