According to signage posted at the resort, sporadic fireworks may be heard from 10 p.m. Tuesday through 1:30 a.m. Wednesday. The testing is expected to take place at EPCOT, which sits just next to Disney’s Yacht Club Resort.

EPCOT’s current nighttime spectacular, Luminous The Symphony of Us, is typically presented at 9 p.m., so this testing will take place well after the park’s regular fireworks have wrapped for the evening.
