Nothing yet from what I've seen and I'm stalking this thread and articles about PTN/MSEP. I know it was mentioned that MK won't be without a nighttime parade for long many pages behind

I guess it's all about perspective. I am a "new" Disney lover. While I've been 5 times, most were when I was younger than 18. I've been twice as an adult (2015,2016) and I just saw MSEP for the first time THIS YEAR. I loved it. It's kind of funny to hear how it's in horrible shape and read all the people who think it'd be great to see it gone . As someone who hasn't seen it a bunch of times, I thought it was an excellent parade. True, I haven't seen any of the other parades, but it certainly didn't seem atrocious/falling apart in any manner when I saw it.
With that said, I can't say I will heart broken that it will be gone because I've only seen it once. I DO think that it would be unfortunate for there to be NO nighttime parade, but I do agree that they will remedy that in some way be it with the holiday parties, or a later showing of FoF.
I am anxious to see what's coming down the line and hope that something is lined up for when I am there in April next year.

I think the more appropriate sentiment might be "Without the Electrical Water Pageant there would be no other"...
And in a side note, MSEP closing made it on the news radio station here in Boston.

DL upgraded MSEP only a year before it came to WDW. I'm sure they did what could be done with those ancient floats. Let's just agree that the parade would be unsalvageable even if OLC had it.

I also moved away from Florida in 1994 and didn't return until 2002. Still didn't return to Disney for the first time in 20 years until 2013 when MSEP was in use. Never experienced Spectromagic. I'll look for a video and watch it. I'm sure it's good.

I love the electrical parade, I had to look up spectromagic on YouTube as I have never seen it in person. My fist thought was I like the music for electrical parade a lot more than spectromagic.

So Spectro will be reopening on Oct 9th 2016 then? Cause that's what the page says.
I don't think so.

LOL, no - sorry I was looking at the replaces/replaced by items. Ten points to Gryffindor for adding a wishful return date.
While it would be awesome, I still hold out no hope that WDW ends up with DreamLights.
The ONLY thing I can even think that is a remote possibility is that they were going to send PTN to Orlando and then recently WDW entered into negotiations with TDL for DreamLights which is why contrary to reliable members here, there are "currently no plans to bring PTN to WDW" as the parks blog said. However, I think this is doubtful.

That castle does look familiar in the background

Fantasy in the Sky was getting awfully long in the tooth by the time they replaced it. Most small town fair fireworks were more impressive than it.

Have they had TDL floats before FoF because the way you've written it it seems they've done it multiple times.
And where did this atwork come from. I'm relatively new to this but it doesn't look like something you'd see from Disney but maybe I'm wrong.

Of course, if you go to TDL, the castle in the background will also be familiar.

This is a big selling point for the ticketed events. Why buy a ticket if you can see the awesome parade without one? I don't see them doing this, but maybe if the mobs get unruly enough...
