A Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow | Carousel of Progress POV (Sept 2025)

Step inside Walt Disney’s enduring tribute to innovation, family, and the American spirit with this full POV ride-through of the Carousel of Progress, filmed on September 12, 2025 by Lisa Post. This immersive video captures every scene, every transition, and every note of “There’s a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow” — the anthem of optimism that has echoed through generations of Disney fans.

Originally created for the 1964–65 New York World’s Fair, the Carousel of Progress was one of Walt Disney’s personal favorites. It was designed to showcase how technological advancements have improved everyday life, decade by decade. After its debut at the Fair, the attraction moved to Disneyland in 1967, and later found its permanent home in Walt Disney World’s Tomorrowland in 1975 — where it continues to spin today, nearly 50 years later.

This 2025 POV offers a rare look at the attraction in its current form, including subtle updates, refreshed lighting, and seasonal overlays that honor both tradition and progress. From the gas lamps and iceboxes of the early 1900s to the voice-activated ovens and virtual reality games of the modern era, each act is a time capsule of American life — told through the eyes of one charming, ever-evolving family.

🎥 Highlights include:

• Crisp, stabilized footage of the rotating theater and each fully staged scene
• Authentic audio of the original narration and Sherman Brothers’ iconic theme song
• Close-ups of animatronics, set details, and hidden Easter eggs
• Crowd ambiance and real-time transitions between acts
• A final scene that blends retro-futurism with cozy holiday nostalgia

Whether you’re a lifelong Disney fan, a theme park historian, or just someone who loves a good story, this video invites you to reflect on how far we’ve come — and how far we can go. It’s not just a ride; it’s a philosophy. As Walt himself said, “Progress is something we can’t stop. It’s going to happen.”
