I think it might be for Halloween and Christmas. Unless TDL is building WDWs nighttime parade lol… if only. Highly doubt they would build it over there though, then again it wouldn’t be the first time they shipped parade floats to WDW.

While, technically it isn't the first Time they shipped parade floats from Tokyo to Walt Disney World. I believe that was because they bought them from OLC, it's probably for Halloween and Christmas stuff over there.
Yeah true. They are way overdue for new Halloween and Christmas parades.

I wish that with this, the Baymax cavalcade would also improve; it would benefit from having some extra units and dancers. But I'm glad to know that they're thinking of improving the events.

I’ve always wondered if Disney built their own floats in house or contracted that job out?

My current predictions for announcements at D23:
Magic Kingdom:
- New nighttime parade (this seems definite)
- Moana attraction in Adventureland
- Coco attraction in BBT, with Villains teased
Epcot:
- Journey Into Imagination update
Animal Kingdom:
- Details on the Tropical Americas land (this is a given)
- Lion King attraction in Africa (maybe, or maybe at next D23)
Nothing at Hollywood Studios.

The parade seems to be far enough along that it will be on the D23 announcement list.
Not discounting you but who knows??? Last thing I read was it was going to be D23 or after D23 or even maybe early 2025. Announcement wise.
Yeah so far some on here do not expect a night parade to be announced at D23 and it will be more of a DPB post late this year or early 2025.
Merged into the BBT thread.

I would be happy if they just bought all the old floats from Tokyo. Even the “old” floats from TDR are light years ahead of anything stateside.

Or hopefully they build new incredible floats of the same quality.
That’s what we are all hoping for. More Dreamlights and less PTN lol. I know @wdwmagic can’t say much but I wish he could give us a clue on what to expect.

I have a feeling Hollywood Studios is going to get something BIG.
Reason - Hollywood Studios is the closest park WDW has to Epic Universe. I feel Disney will do something big to try and answer Epic Universe, primarily via new things at Hollywood Studios.

It would be nice to have a land in the Animation Courtyard/Backstage area. That would eliminate two dead ends in that park. But I hear space back there is more limited than we think. I hope I'm wrong though and bothers me we even need to talk about this considering WDW's blessing of size.
So far the only thing that appears to be unofficially confirmed for 2025 is a night parade. While it’s great news to finally get a parade back it’s not so great news that’s the only answer they have to EUs opening, Unless they truly do not care. New attractions, with the exception of TT and maybe an unknown refurb or something, cant be completed in time. Entertainment, as had been said, is the only thing they could “turbo charge” for 2025 lol, but so far there isn’t any strong rumors other than the parade. Id say replacing some, upgrading others, maybe a temporary show new or old show, daytime parade somewhere, adding a new nighttime show to a particular park.
