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

[HauntedPirate]

I mean, just brought numbers. There comes old be character segments between, small floats extending sections, etc

Guess just don't want to get too hung up *just* number of floats. As it could have 12 floats and feel like a full parade or 18 but not a lot else and feel empty

Aim low with this management regime and you'll never rarely be disappointed.

Believe me! I Know we're not at the Finish Line yet....

However, when Starlight is added to the Calendar, we'll be closer to This than anything Night Parade related in 9 Years!!!!! CAN'T WAIT for that!!!!!

I can’t believe they botched this opening and they are going to have at best 6 weeks 7 day of operation before it gets cut to 4 days a week and then 3 days a week due to their parties.

I don't see how it was botched, considering Summer runs until Sept (plus a date hasn't been announced yet)

Crazy thought, is it possible they run this during parties if it's busy enough? I remember when PTN started at DLR in 2015 they ran it during the Halloween parties due to it's popularity. I know they didn't have a Halloween Parade at the time so that's probably why they did that so it's unlikely that would happen at WDW but maybe if it's popular enough?

I highly doubt it

Same with MOUACT at MVMCP. But I don't see anything wrong with Starlight at 11PM at Parties if there's Demand.....

I don't see that happening

I don't think we're getting a logo float. When was the last time a parade even had one? I'm expecting only one more float, maybe two if we're lucky.

If seasonal parades are being counted, BTY has one

I was thinking modern parades that have been made in the last ten years, BTY is over 20 years old. It would be great if we got a logo float but I don't think it's gonna happen.

 

[wdwmagic]

Wonder if anyone has heard it? It has to be completed now......

Soundtrack is very much under wraps for now

 

[wdwmagic]

Has any insider said may 22nd was ever under consideration? It seems like this is wishful thinking from fans wanting Disney to debut something alongside epic universe.

I don't think that was ever really on the cards, certainly hasn't been for a long time now.

You don’t debut something so late in the season that you are already ramping up for the next one where you limit its showings. Memorial Day should have been the latest it debusted given the parties, but given the complete economic collapse that’s about to happen it probably doesn’t matter. Consumer spending on discretionary items is about to plummet, once tarrifs get added to essential items.

and I’m sure it will be back come next spring or who knows maybe even early winter?

Hopefully it won’t disappoint.

As people have said, I think we all need to be realistic with our expectations here. There is no feasible way this parade will have all the characters you want, the length you want, the number of floats you want, and the soundtrack you want all in one.

Nothing will ever be better or worse than you expect, just different.

If MK picks up right where MSEP left off....Starlight should be just about Nightly outside of Parties and AH...

Welp, there goes my hopes for a 75-minute parade with 132 floats and a soundtrack that tops the Billboard 100 for months. Thanks for crushing my dreams

You jest but I came up with an idea for a 100 float parade for Disneys 100th birthday once.

Hopefully it won’t disappoint.

Hopefully it's not a pop anthem soundtrack like Paint the Night or Magic Happens.

Since this will be twice a night, that's basically a giveaway that's it's not going to be that long. Maybe longer than the current parades.

MNSSHP starts in early August.

It has to. That’s when the Sanderson Sisters are back and if they don’t start the parties on time, there will be…heck…to pay.

It is indeed so not what you think.

It has nothing to do with the cement mixer.

It's just the four construction workers.
