Morocco's B'net Al Houwariyate leaves Epcot

Shame, it's too bad, they were entertaining, though not as much as Mo-Rockin. Hopefully the replacement will be even more entertaining though.

I hope a similar type of group is found as a replacement.

↩ replying to wdwmagicThank Goodness, I was never a huge fan of Mo'Rockin' although I did find them entertaining and would stop to listen on my way through, but this new group was just awful for me. I never connected with the music or the dancing(?) that I saw from them. Hopefully the next act will engage me more. Marie

Honestly wasn't super impressed by this group, I got bored after five minutes, I did like the music though. Any word on how long till a replacement? weeks, months? dare I say years....

And yet the lumberjacks remain.

↩ replying to MansionButler84I am hearing rumors that they are gone in January or so but haven't been able to confirm that with any source I would trust. Hopefully so though. Marie

↩ replying to wannabeBelleIt is looking like the new model may be based around year long contracts, so I wouldn't be surprised to see them not return after the holiday shows.

I would doubt that the lumberjacks are gone. Like them or not they draw huge crowds every time I am there. Disney loves crowd eaters...

↩ replying to AJH219Absolutely. Frequent changing of the entertainment at Epcot is a good idea. It's a simple way to keep things "fresh". Not that everything should be changed yearly, but it would be good to get a number of new acts each year.

While I have no problems with a yearly approach, I'd hope that they try to stagger them so they don't all go dark at the same time.
W
Or building on that idea do a rotation so one or two acts this year, one or two other acts next year etc. Marie

Amen. Bye Bye Mo'Rockin'
I can understand the year and out approach. Guests won't have a change to bond with particular groups and there will not be the outcry when they are replaced. There will always be performers that are willing to take a gig for a full year. The upside for all of the other non Disney Parks and venues is WDW can ferret out talent and when they release the better ones someone else can snarf up a good cast off of Disney's.
