MK All-New Nighttime Parade Disney Starlight Set to Debut at Magic Kingdom in 2025

[Stupido]

Lyrics would have really helped tie this together nicely. It almost seems silly to have released this on streaming, especially with the chunky dead space between songs.

I love that they went with Evangeline for the Tiana portion of the Royals float though... That song doesn't get enough love, and absolutely should have been in TBA.

Almost feels like what we are listening to is an instrumental version of another soundtrack with lyrics lol.

Someone help me. I swear 1:20-1:27, that little crescendo in the Starlight Anthem track, it just seriously reminds me of something. My brain goes to a Mario Game, maybe Galaxy? Some sort of... "You did it!" music... anyone else?

I wish they would have left Jeddah out of the picture and let Tim Heinz do a complete symphonic score

I could literally hear the blue fairy and the wish girl talking at the same time - that’s how close the units are.

Her name is Asha. I’m not defending Wish, but that’s her name.

I actually watched the movie and couldn’t remember her name. That’s how forgettable it is haha.

I don’t think anyone has commented about the hub tree lights turn to blue and also sparkle white like stars. Of course we know they turn on the hub light towers and those are blue. The castle search lights turn on as well. Missed opportunity to do similar for the rest of the route. Why do they insist on keeping the hub the place to be?

The music sounds a lot better on Spotify. It’s too muddy on video.

Interesting that the order has Peter Pan near the front on Spotify, assuming that was the original order.

There are now light towers in Frontierland… but they are the same ones used for MNSSHP. There was one I noticed on top of Pecos Bill that I’m not sure if that is new and or used for MNSSHP. None of them turned on for Starlight which likely means it’s for the seasonal parties.

I thought it reminded me of the Mega Movie Parade from Universal Orlando. It’s similar and not exact but it’s the same vibes.

Interesting since apparently they use the same builder for the chassis as Uni did for that parade. More things, however, move on the floats than Universal's.

They aren't fully connected & adjusted yet also the roofs ones use to be there. They have more building lighting this year though(the 4 top spotlights fixtures).

It's similar to the very end of the theme from "Dallas."

 

[GhostHost1000]

The problem is they have nothing to spread it out with.

Bingo. Someone didn’t think this through very well. Unfortunately like many decisions there these days

 

[dennis-in-ct]

I wonder if there were originally supposed to be more floats but they got scrapped because of budget cuts.

I hope so.
It feels like this is a good foundation to build on and add floats as time goes on.
A friend of mine who is a local and has been to every Disney theme park globally gave this parade a B+. It’s a good start.

I look forward to seeing this in person during our upcoming fall visit.

So do we think they'll be flying by this weekend? @Drew the Disney Dude

Unfortunately, I'm not sure, but I hope it's sooner rather than later.

 

[TrainsOfDisney]

They’ve only had 2.5 years to figure out the flying… give them time!!

 

[jrhwdw]

Doubt it, I heard sometime next month but not sure how accurate that is.

Is MK just waiting on the Wiring?
I'm guessing like TDL, we'll only see this on Dry Nights? On Questionable Nights, hopefully Peter and Wendy will return to the Debut Version! So Happy to see not everyone locked to one place unable to move around! Safety, I get it but still.....

 

[MerlinTheGoat]

Are we 100% sure the liability lawyers didn't take one look at the flying and just nope out right then and there?

Good Question but MK must have cleared that if they're still working on it? Plus the new IG & FB Ads(haven't found the YT Version)have Peter and Wendy clearly Flying......
