A last chance to see the Main Street Electrical Parade
Until March 23, 2002
The Main Street Electrical Parade has illuminated Disneyland Park ever since it first opened its doors on April 12, 1992. Nearly 11 years after its first appearance, the Parade will leave the Park forever during an enchanting farewell season that lasts until March 23, 2002.
As night falls in Disneyland Park, sparkling parade floats bring even more light and magic to Main Street, U.S.A. Led by the Blue Fairy, the Main Street Electrical Parade pays tribute to many of Disney's classic animated tales with more than a million tiny lights on parade floats. A variety of favourite characters and movie moments star in the parade, which includes the diamond mine scene from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Alice's trip to Wonderland, Pinocchio's circus adventures, Pete's Dragon, Elliot and a royal procession featuring Cinderella.
The Main Street Electrical Parade made its first appearance in a Disney theme park (Disneyland, California) in 1972. Before then, Disney's parades, with their celebration of different themes and seasons, had become a firm favourite with theme park visitors, helping to plunge them into a magical world of fun and fantasy. When Disneyland in California first extended its opening hours, Bob Jani, the then Director of Entertainment, helped to develop a new night time parade concept using Christmas tree-style lights on the floats and costumes and, on June 17, 1972, the Main Street Electrical Parade was born… The parade was an immediate and lasting success, and led to its introduction and expansion at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, where it ran for 15 seasons.
The Walt Disney World Resort Main Street Electrical Parade crossed the Atlantic Ocean just in time for the inauguration of Disneyland Park in April 1992. Soon after its first appearance, the Snow White and Pinocchio floats were added, and this colourful parade was completed in 1996 with the arrival of the Swan floats from Tokyo Disneyland.
The Main Street Electrical Parade features more than 35 floats and mobile units, utilising more than 1,000 kilometres of electrical cable. Until March 23, 2003, guests will have a final opportunity to see the parade at Disneyland Resort Paris.
