i love this firework show because it has such an amzaing meaning of how we are all the same no matter wat age race gender or religion we are its simplly the most amazing fireworks ever lol but also wishes is just as great too lol
Love this show but never seen the holiday version. Will hopefully get to see it this December. By the way, this is the best quality video of Illuminations I've seen yet. Good job.
It's pretty one of the most amazings shows i ever seen, Its makes so impression and it's like a big dream. I think wishes and this are the best they are. Becasue Wishes is a total another story than this ofcours, but it's both one of the best!
I've see, first-hand, the "magic" behind Disney. I must say not only is the show amazing but what goes on behind it. :)
Every year, sometimes twice a year, I say I want to play the opening song with Disney's orchestra. Hopefully I get to some day, after all Disney is where dreams come true. xD
Yes, this is the Holiday (Christmas) version of Illuminations at Epcot. It's only done in November, December and a couple of days in January every year. It is, simply, the best nightly fireworks show anywhere on Earth. Period.
There is a holiday edition of Illuminations. It ends with holiday songs and Walter Cronkite giving a message of Peace on Earth. It's awesome. It runs the entire Christmas season at Disney.
@gwklam There is a special holiday edition of illuminations. It is called the peace on earth tag and it happens after the regular show. It will typically run between Thanksgiving and New Years but its run can be both started before Thanksgiving and run past New Years.
Awesome footage! My wife and I think we might actually prefer Illuminations to Wishes, but we've never had the chance to see either during the holidays. Was it in December that this was filmed, I presume, or do they start the holiday version earlier than that? Thanks for the video, regardless! We are heading to WDW in July, and watching clips like this one helps make the wait more bearable!
Yes, it was filmed on Christmas day of last year. Since All the parks are so close together, why not watch both wishes and Illumination?
I dont think there is a holiday version for the Epcot fireworks, it's just been illuminations. I wouldn't know too much about it because before my Christmas trip i havent been to Disneyworld since i was 3, which was 17 years ago.
well in the Disney CD, it's just called Reflections of earth. The song was made just for the fireworks, so it seems logical that the song is the same name as the fireworks.
lol@ icing on the cake, i would add some FIrework candles too. It's really too bad that it was my first time to see the fireworks, so i had no idea what to expect and where the fireworks to shoot.
It's also really too bad that my camcorder skills were still noob(it looks like you might not believe me), (it's my very first camcorder),
wow it's awesome!!! but i read somewhere that there was a "holiday illuminations" like all the soundrack was christmas-like do you know if they are not doing this anymore, or it was just like holiday season.
well, according to the disney website, it's always going to be the same theme: reflections of earth. i watched this on chirstmas day and if this aint considered a 'holiday illumination' then i guess they have the same thing everyday.
I always love Epcot's fireworks!! There so amazing!!! Great camera quality!! What kind of camera do you use? @gwklam

So if we go to Epcot on December 28th 2009 we will see this Illuminations Holiday Show?

Maybe, most likely. Illuminations is a all year thing, I dont think they have a special christmas edition. Only Magic kingdom has it so far.

But illuminations just transcends being a fireworks show, it's truly awe inspiring.

The second part of this video is not normally in the show.
I definitely think this is WAY better than Wishes, theres not even a comparison.

what the name of the music in the beginning... before the song with the woman
onisuka77 2 years ago
Reflections of Earth. Yes the song was made just for the fireworks, therefore the song is the same name.

what the name of the song in the beginning after the pace picks up? its so great

if you are talking about the song with the woman singing with the chorus, it's called: We Go On
