To celebrate today’s debut of “Luminous: The Story of Us” nighttime spectacular at EPCOT, a new merchandise collection has arrived at Walt Disney World Resort.
We found these items in Creations Shop at EPCOT.
‘Luminous’ Pullover Hoodie – $54.99
This pullover hoodie for adults is a dark gray, with the show’s wordmark on the front left breast, and concept art on the back.
‘Luminous’ Adult T-Shirt – $34.99
This adult T-shirt features the “Luminous” wordmark on the front, and concept art of the show in a circular graphic on the back.
‘Luminous’ Die Cut Magnet – $14.99
This die cut magnet has the wordmark for “Luminous” over concept art.
‘Luminous’ Ornament – $19.99
This ornament features the same art as that of the die cut magnet, attached to a black ribbon for hanging.
‘Luminous: The Symphony of Us’
“Luminous: The Symphony of Us” will technically replace “EPCOT Forever,” but serves as a permanent replacement for “Harmonious” following the latter show’s stoppage in April 2023. “Harmonious” was announced at Destination D23 in 2018 and debuted in October 2021 for the 50th anniversary of Walt Disney World, replacing “IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth,” which had been showing since 1999.
“Harmonious” ran for the final time on April 2, 2023, to make way for its ultimate replacement, which at that point was an unnamed upcoming nighttime spectacular celebrating “100 Years of Wonder and the 40th anniversary of EPCOT” that was announced in September 2022. “Harmonious” was temporarily replaced by the returning “EPCOT Forever,” the interim show that first ran between the closure of “IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth” and the opening of “Harmonious.”
“Luminous: The Symphony of Us” missed the start of Disney100 celebrations at EPCOT on September 22; though never formally announced to commence in September, sources have indicated to us that Disney targeted a “late September or early October” start date for the spectacular but delayed it after being initially unhappy with the Pinar Toprak-composed score.
The new nighttime show debuts tonight. Guests visiting the neighborhood on its partial opening date will have the opportunity to listen to a new World Celebration background music loop composed by Toprak. Figment will be featured in the show.
