The nighttime show
“IllumiNations” over
the lagoon at Epcot
is a not-to-be-missed
extravaganza of light,
music and technology.
The second annual Epcot International Festival of the Arts was expanded this year to six
weeks of thrilling performances, amazing art and culinary treats. Epcot’s World Showcase
was filled during January and February with colorful art and artists who allowed you to
speak with them and purchase their work. Likewise, the Broadway Concert Series at the
America Gardens Theatre and strength acts such as Art Defying Gravity filled the park, along
with musical performances that ranged from marching bands to jazz ensembles.
