Rare Electrical Water Pageant Concept Art

One of the most delightful experiences at the opening of The Walt Disney World Resort took place late in the evening on the shores of the Seven Seas Lagoon. The Electrical Water Pageant was the wet version of the beloved Main Street Electrical Parade!  This elegant procession of sea life passing by the guests consisted of many floats, including jumping dolphins, a giant sea turtle, a whale, and King Triton being pulled by seahorses. As you can tell from the piece of concept art, thousands upon thousands of twinkling lights brought it all the life. The Imagineers once again pulled off a very successful evening event that is still a fan favorite almost 50 years later!
