I’ve never been a huge fan of this show. I am looking forward to seeing what is in the new show.
As a kid, IllumiNations was never my favorite. Now that I’m older I seem to love the show more and more each time I see it. I’ll definitely be sad to see it go, but I am very excited to see what they’ll do with the new show.
