I'm trying to find it on WFTV.com. They had a article this morning that said that the parade was brought into the park last night and showed video of people walking the parade in. They showed 4 different floats. I couldn't tell where it was at based on the background but it wasn't at the park itself. It was on a main road around the parks as they had trail vehicles following the floats.

link to a youtube to show the floats arriving.
If it doesn't work look up "Festival of Fantasy Floats Arrival"

That is the raw video that wftv used. They have a Disney Park blog about it also. Maybe now they can start in park parade practice. http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/bl...=SOC-DPFY14Q1YT1282014DisneyParks000128-01-14
The property is huge. Maybe they just were moved onto the Magic Kingdom property last night. The pictures from above (Dinsyelifestyler) looks like they are at one of the warehouses and they look similar to the ones near Reams Road near the main storage location. I know that there are many other warehouses that they could have been hidden at. I'm sure they had to clear the old parade out of the MG storage location before they could bring the new over.

So then Disney is late releasing that video? Lol
They can release things whenever they choose
In this case they waited a while.I don't think Disney should release video like this. What is the point in moving things under the cover of darkness if they then record it and put it on the web? It shows the parade floats in less than ideal lighting, but lets you see enough to really see the entire float. It is reducing the impact of seeing all the new floats in the park in the right conditions.
This Video makes it look like there was a very big sale on really cheap plastic.

Hate to say it but I kinda agree with you. Maybe night performances of this parade is not a good idea lol

Because obviously night performances will be done in pitch dark with nothing but a flood light.

I sort of agree but on the other hand they're definitely better than the old, recycled CADCT floats! I watched Tokyos 30th anniversary parade, and if one day WDW could get something like that, it would be amazing! None the less , FOF should be pretty awesome!

True haha, but MK route (currently) is not exactly bright. We still don't know if that will change. Heck it hasn't even been confirmed if there will be night performances lol so we shall see.

Well the only float in FOF that screams cheap to me is the Mickey's Air Balloon float. But yes still a LOT better than CADCT!

WRONG, they will all be given military grade nightvision googles..Because obviously night performances will be done in pitch dark with nothing but a flood light.
We will see also the rare SplinterCellMickey (or MetalGearMickey) during this rehearsal.
marble is low tier, we demanded Platinum and Diamonds.

Do you think if one was going on the Keys to the Kingdom tour these floats would be positioned for viewing? It's a long shot I'm sure. We'll be there at the end of February. Thanks.
