Mark your calendars; November 12, 2012 through January 6, 2013 is the official holiday season at the Disneyland Resort. We know our readers like to make their holiday plans as far in advance as possible, so here are details of the two events we're most frequently asked about:
DanceTheMagic.com, a Web site that offers travel packages to dance groups, lists November 3 as the date the West Coast segments of the annual Disney Parks Christmas Parade will be taped at Disneyland. (November 4 is a back-up date in case of rain or tape delay). Based on past years, at least some of the floats from A Christmas Fantasy parade will be filmed in a procession down Main Street early Saturday morning, wirh several musical acts performing on a stage in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle.
This filming usually impacts Disneyland's entertainment schedule—expect Mickey's Soundsational parade to be cancelled both days. This is also usually a good weekend for celebrity-spotting, as the special guests spend time in the parks with their families before and after taping.
While we don't expect an official confirmation for several more weeks, we expect the annual Candlelight Processional to be held December 1 and 2. Dates, performances times, narrator and availability (if any) of dining packages have not yet been announced.
. Thanks for bumping this!!! a few things worth mentioning.
