He KNEW SpectroMagic was toast!

He definitely had that smile like he knew something lol. Question is did he know there were plans to upgrade Spectro while MSEP was running? or did he know the condition Spectro was in and it was likely toast?

Hopefully he was toast among others for not maintaining the parade floats. They do not deserve to have their hands come near this new parade.

They aren’t but both of their movies have scenes that haven’t aged well. Disney is desperate for Latin characters so Panchito and José Carioca get a free pass.

Not to mention that José is still incredibly popular in Brazil due to decades of comics.

Also, me personally, id be down for a three cabs movie or something. Maybe something in the vein of “the three amigos”?

They had a new TV show a few years back that Disney essentially buried. It’s a shame, I thought it was pretty good. It’s on D+ if you’re interested.

Hopefully the opening float for this parade is better than Tink on a stick and a funnel.

I was going to mention this. My kids watched the whole series and now they enjoy the ride inside the Mexico pavilion more than I do.

WDW just posted a help wanted for two dozen Little People for a Darby O'Gill float.

Unless the timing changes this should be the last 4th of July at MK with no nighttime parade!

And the second 4th of July at MK with no guests.

@PREMiERdrum Have you heard yet when they might start the new parade route lighting install? And is this something we may notice being installed? I’d imagine if it involves concrete work for new polls that would take place over night?

I CAN'T WAIT till we see 10:00 & 12:00 Midnight Timeslots on the 4th Again!!!!! Like Spectro/MSEP had all those Years!!!!!!!!!

I do wonder if they will have the two performances again, or at least as often as they didn’t in the past.

Nothing firm but I still expect it. Let's get through party season and then watch for markings on the concrete.

So...January 2025?

Anytime past 2nd week of January I’d say.

Just a guess but maybe the lighting package could be more of a separate project for 2025 to enhance MKs nighttime lighting. Not just for the parade but maybe HEA and other entertainment and events.

Some of those will be featured but also some classics. It won't all be new IPs. But, we can immediately eliminate Black Cauldron, Fun and Fancy Free, and Saludos Amigos.

I'd expect Zootopia would be featured as well.

What about some villains?

@danlb_2000 have you heard of any permits regarding this?

I doubt anyone wants to see Iger dancing down MSUSA even if his cardigan has blinking lights.
