Paint the night is not moving to Disney World. Stop bumping this.

IMO seeing a daytime parade at night gives a totally different feel to the parade. Especially with additional lighting. Honestly seeing the Maleficent dragon with fire at night would be pretty dope lol.

That float does sound awesome at night lol

Well it's exciting to see it limp down DLs parade route where it belongs instead of MK lol.

It's taken very seriously for Disneyland fans though. Which explains the hype about the parades return.

Going from PTN to the 45 year old MSEP though... yikes! I'm sure there are very mixed feelings about this.

Most of the reaction from Disneyland locals were positive. I remember alot of DL fans were begging for MSEP to return to Disneyland Resort years before PTN was even thought of. It's a difference point of view from WDW and especially DL locals.

Also it is temporary with an end date. They are not replacing PTN forever. DL also has spent a bit of money repairing MSEP for it's short run at DL and even returned the Drum Float to the start of the parade.

There isn't THAT much hype.

The preview event is tomorrow and Disney is blasting social media with "tickets still available."

Most of the hype has been about the ads (and rightly so) than the actual return of the parade.

Well I don't think up charge events work well in Anaheim because of the locals aspect. I am sure many will go and see the parade though.

But did they actually confirm PTNs return date following MSEP? Or are they leaving that open in case the refurb takes longer than expected? Also F! will be reopening around the time MSEP ends.

Never say never about FoF.

Assuming you have heard something and assuming it would even be this year... Is Spring a possibility or more like summer?

They have not yet confirmed Paint the Night will even be returning.

The Main Street Electrical Parade made its third formal debut in Anaheim tonight (1972, 2001, 2017). It's looking reasonably refurbished, but just as hokey and 1970's as always.


Now all this thread needs is the formal announcement that the MSEP will stay at Disneyland past its announced closing date of June 18th and that Paint The Night will be moving to WDW this summer.

What would have been impressive would have been to return the Blue Fairy to the front of the parade!

You know after seeing PTN on that same street... this just looks sad.

That's exactly what I thought. Paint The Night is like a snazzy 2016 Lexus, and the Electrical Parade is like a wheezy 1972 Buick.
