Disney’s Electrical Water Pageant Will Be Temporarily Unavailable When WDW Reopens

Electrical Water Pageant

Disney’s Electrical Water Pageant will be temporarily unavailable when Walt Disney World reopens!

The Electrical Water Pageant is a 15 minute nighttime aquatic parade at the Magic Kingdom that Disney describes as a show with “whimsical sea creatures sailing across the Seven Seas Lagoon to classic Disney tunes.”

Unfortunately, with the phased reopening of Walt Disney World, many shows, experiences, and parades, including the Electrical Water Pageant, will be unavailable upon reopening. These unfortunate delays in the opening of shows is to limit the gathering of crowds while COVID-19 concerns are still in place.

While the phased reopening of Walt Disney World won’t be exactly how we’re used to enjoying the parks, we’re just ready to be back at the “happiest place on Earth!” We’ll also be looking forward to the shows and experiences coming back at a safer time, including this “Underwater World of Mystery” (Electrical Water Pageant).

The Pearl Factory At Disney Springs Has Permanently Closed

The Pearl Factory At Disney Springs Has Permanently Closed

The Pearl Factory at Disney Springs has permanently closed. This is one of the first businesses that have not been able to reopen since Disney Springs closed in March due to the Coronavirus. Most businesses, including Disney owned stores, such as World of Disney began opening the end of May.

The Pearl Factory was a small kiosk located across from Tren-D. There you got to open an oyster and it would reveal a pearl. After that you got to purchase jewelry to house your new pearl. Unfortunately, the kiosk is no longer showing hours for operation on the shop’s page on the Disney Springs website.

If you were really looking forward to the Pearl Factory there was a similar experience in the Japan pavilion at Epcot. We will keep you informed if that reopens when Epcot is set to open in July.
