The finale laser effects, briefly restored for the 2023 return, were removed; they were last documented working on June 2, 2023.
Happily Ever After returned to Magic Kingdom for the Disney100 celebration, replacing Disney Enchantment; the revived version added projection mapping on the facades of Main Street, U.S.A. plus the hub and Main Street ambient sound effects first introduced in Enchantment.
New character projections joined the stained-glass finale — Miguel (Coco), Mirabel and Bruno (Encanto), Elena of Avalor, Mei (Turning Red), Raya, and Luca — first seen during the 2023 return previews.
Happily Ever After played its final original-run performance and went dark, retired to make way for Disney Enchantment ahead of Walt Disney World's 50th anniversary; it stayed off the schedule for about 18 months.
Happily Ever After debuted at Magic Kingdom, replacing Wishes after nearly 14 years; it added full Cinderella Castle projection mapping, lasers, and dozens of choreographed searchlights atop the pyrotechnics.
