I would love a updated Spectromagic....sigh.....we are going for our first Christmas Party....is any of THAT parade electric? Guess that's something I have not seen yet so looking forward to that.

Yes Spectromagic is electric.

I meant the Christmas parade...Once upon a Christmastime? I assume its at night since the parties start at 7.....so wondering if it is lit up?

It's mainly floodlit.

Any more word on a replacement? I've never in my life been on a Disney trip and haven't seen a light parade within my 25 years, never have I imagined the Magic Kingdom without a night parade not to mention one of the only 5 shows I actually like in the parks.

I was also wondering how they transport the electrical parade to California .. I live off i10 and it would be cool to see it passing through!!

What issues besides the music and lack of classic characters.

Structural.

Cinderella, Mickey and co, Belle, Tiger, Genie, Lumiere, Peter Pan, Tinkerbell, Ariel and friends. I wouldn't say lack. Just a weird mix of pixar and fairytale floats that don't generally mesh the best.

Im hoping after the holidays they have something to replace it. We'll see.

At least Tokyo Disneyland Electrical Parade Dreamlights mashes Pixar and Disney perfectly.

TDO seems unwilling and/or unable to spend $ for new music, new choreography, and new floats. We would be highly doubtful of any new nighttime electrical parade. In fact, given extreme penuriousness, it is unlikely that they will recycle any old parade either, at least one that has not rotted away and been thrown in the trash.

Yes I agree but who wants to sift through 114 pages of Bull@$*% and arguments to get an answer.

Which is why this website has a convenient "news" section posting the more substantial information and making it easier to find. If you don't see anything concerning a light parade there, it's probably because it's not coming anytime soon.

Structural.

They had structural issues with Horizons, look how that ended up.

They didn't.

They didn't.

I was all ready to quote your Mission Space video as evidence.

That's my point, they make excuses when they want to get rid of a popular attraction. Next thing you know they have 7 unit Electrical Parades with original unit size running thru the parks, I wonder how many units are going to "get destroyed on the travel back to Disneyland".

Not everyone spends hours at the computer reading every post on here especially when 90% of the post are crap.

 

[LAKid53]

Well, no more annoying music twice each night.... I'm happy.

Literally a 114 page ongoing discussion on this very matter. Not every thought/question you have warrants a thread
http://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/...aint-the-night-closing-wdw-inevitable.916192/

So this forum is only for those that post in excess of thirty times a month? 114 page posts are too cumbersome and usually digress from the original subject. I see nothing wrong with the original posters question.

The show thats in Disneyland is supposed to come here. I can't remember the name of it, but it's supposed to replace the electrical parade.

That would be Paint the Night. And no, it's not coming to WDW.
