As the EPCOT International Festival of the Arts kicks off this weekend at Walt Disney World Resort, Spaceship Earth is debuting a new lighting scheme to celebrate the festival. This new look is full of color, in fact, it has all the colors of the rainbow! With that, EPCOT is also having The Muppets singing Rainbow Connection to compliment the new look.
Disney shared some photos of Spaceship Earth with its EPCOT International Festival of the Arts lighting look. Check it out below. Our friends at MouseSteps also posted a video of the Rainbow Connection moment that you can see below.
The Muppets have been utilized in the parks more recently. At Disneyland during the holidays, they had a show during the after-hours event Disney Merriest Nites. The Muppets Christmas Caroling Coach had The Muppets on a Disneyland Omnibus singing carols and doing a show… that of course didn’t go as perfectly as envisioned. This was one of the more popular offerings at this hard ticket event for the holidays.
EPCOT International Festival of the Arts continues through February 21, 2022. What do you think of this use and lighting of Spaceship Earth? Share your thoughts and opinions in the comments below!
