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

[jrhwdw]

Do you think that all the summer offerings have been unveiled or that disney might have some surprises for us. As much as I am excited about this new parade I also wish to see the drone show back in Disney Springs (one of my favorites from my first visit last year!), and more Disney characters in the parks.

In any case, this parade looks spectacular and I cannot wait to witness it in person.

I believe we know all the major Stuff. DHS is all Scheduled, just waiting on MK.....

Everything else is under Cool Kid Summer.

I’m a little bit worried that Disney might make some Disney Renaissance movies like The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Hercules, etc forgotten. Yes Belle and Beast from Beauty and the Beast are in there which is better than nothing, but what about the other Disney Renaissance movies? Especially the popular ones?

Never fear! I heard some of the lyrics for the main song for the parade will be something along the lines on, "Part of your world... where I can let it go the distance! Tale as old as time... just around the riverbend... you're like a shooting star, you've got a friend in me, I wanna know about these strangers like me!" Lather, rinse, repeat for 8 minutes.

Tarzan isn't in Starlight.....Or is he??........

Uhhh… “Cool Kid Summer”?

Sigh.

Hey! At least we got a Commercial! Before April, no less!!!

 

[WondersOfLife]

True, I meant the presence of Aladdin and Jasmine isn't in FOFP vs Peter Pan. Yeah repeating the same song Friend Like Me when you already have for the first time that's different "When She Loved Me" in Epcot is unnecessary. You've Got a Friend in Me is also tiring because Toy Story alone is carbonated alot!

Agreed

I’m confused. Some people on here tell me Disney needs to stop building e-tickets and focus on dark rides for young kids because we can’t compete with Epic. Now others are saying it’s dumb to focus advertising on young kids instead of older kids. Which is it?

Cool Kid Summer? Wow. The commercial is not bad but the name runined it. Did they just pull some random kid in the park and asked what the Summer promotion should be called? Lol.

Who Knows. We knew it was Cool Kid Summer last Weds...

Of course! Some of us were suspicious on how TDO was going to do this. A Real Nighttime Parade like MSEP/Spectro or old Daytime Floats with some Lights.....

That is very true. One just has to come to my local Portuguese Holy Ghost night parade on Labor Day and it's a sad excuse for anything never mind a night parade.

People thought it might be the second one?

Nothing wrong with being Suspicious of TDO. We already know MK won't restore FOF...

in this case, yes it would be. When Starlight was announced, I never thought it was going to be daytime floats with a few lights. As for FoF, it's always possible it will be replaced down the road

 

[HauntedPirate]

Rumor has it Disney consulted with local Disney doods to ensure the new commercial was a hit with kids.

I don’t think anyone was Really Nervous about it. However, when we talk about thae Parade Route Lighting Project. We were wondering how Starlight would be related to that.....

Very much so, and honestly I still question how much lighting some of the floats will have. Coco for example has the look of a daytime float with lighting added to it. The Wish float I will say shows off more lights. To be fair it is concept art so the real thing may look very different as far as lighting goes.

It feels like this thread has a lot of people who were NOT “cool kids” in middle school and this promotion is surfacing some VERY hidden trauma.

It’s okay. You’re all cool kids to me. It doesn’t matter if you were the last pick in dodgeball.

“Cool Kid Summer” sounds like a Chuck E Cheese promotion.
