ORLANDO, Fla. – Walt Disney World Imagineers began testing some of the water effects Thursday for the new upcoming show “Harmonious.”

The show will be one of the largest nighttime spectaculars ever produced at a Disney park when it’s complete.

Guests visiting Thursday watched as one of the barges in World Showcase Lagoon began streaming water out of the barge and its large rotating arm.

Disney Imagineers said each barge will house a number of show elements including custom-built LED panels, choreographed moving fountains, colorful lights, lasers, pyrotechnics and more.

Just last week, Disney positioned the iconic six-story tall ring structure that will be the centerpiece of the show. Officials said the large barge will support a high-density water curtain, moving lights, fountains and more.

During the day, Disney said the barge fountains will be on and provide new energy to World Showcase Lagoon before the spectacular begins.

Disney said “Harmonious” is still in its early stages of development and a debut date has not been decided.
