News New Parade: Magic Happens

In the past, Did Disney buy new chassis for every new parade they needed? I grew up during the time that Disney would do parade changeovers overnight or at the latest a month or two. This thing with Soundsational seems overboard to me! All this does is expect an announcement at D23. Hopefully DL is prepared!!!!

It's truly amazing to me that the two best parades DL has at the moment, Soundsational and PTN, seem to be on the entertainment **** list. Granted, Sounsational is due for a replacement, but MSEP was beyond offensive years ago.

I'm sure MSEP and Christmas Fantasy will still be playing 60 years from now when I'm lying incoherent in a nursing home, long after they've bullied all other entertainment out of existence.

I kinda wish Disney would update us on what’s going on with parades. We all thought Electrical Parade was dead and destroyed meanwhile apparently it’s still alive and somewhat well. Meanwhile the rumors was that Play Parade was gonna return to DCA, now it’s apparently dismantled. I just wish they would put in their press releases “this is the last time you’re ever gonna see this parade” rather than making everyone play guessing games as to what’s permanently retired and what’s still going.

Still playing catch-up on this thread. Is it true this parade will be premiering spring/summer of 2020? If so, this is all super disappointing. I understand PTN is an operational nightmare at the moment, but running Soundsational/MSEP back to back would at least bulk up the entertainment offerings, even if MSEP is thirty years or so past its prime...Do they really need to scavenge Soundsational for parts so badly that it needs to be dismantled a year before the new parade debuts? Even running a shortened version would be better than nothing.

Will be at Disneyland for the first time in August and am really feeling like I've chosen the worst possible time, between the Red Car Trolly down for refurb, losing PTN, now also losing Soundsational and getting MSEP (which I've seen many times before during its stint a WDW) as a consolation prize.

Just to let you guys know that Disneyland reused or rebuild floats all the time, even in the 80's and 90's. For example, remember Disneyland did The World According To Goofy Parade back in 1992? Well, they have an opening float for Professor Ludwig Von Drake and the book floats. And now few years later, they become floats for A Christmas Fantasy Parade. And for Walt Disney's Parade of Dreams, they turned the castle float into a villains float for Disneyland Frightfully Fun Parade. So you see, this is normal that they have to change the chassis of the floats. I know, there are some formal problems of changing floats during Share A Dream Come True Parade before they did Festival of Fantasy Parade, but like I said, Disneyland does that all the time. And there's nothing to be concern or upset about. ;)

I think the fact that Soundsational is ending so early is what caught us off guard. We all knew this could be Soundsational's last year. But now it's ending without a replacement announcement for now....


I wonder if DL should wait until D23 For a announcement. Maybe DL'S Birthday would be better, so we're all not wondering if it'll be included at D23?

I'm sure it'll announce on D23 Expo or earlier on Disney Parks Blog.

Flights of Fantasy is an exception.

Well, I don't know much about that parade. I guess I wasn't born in 1983, until 2 years later. But still, it happens all the time.
At least we have photos of the parade.

Well, it looks like someone at that fake news Micechat finally told LittleMonsterPageantHelper who's boss:https://discuss.micechat.com/forum/...ational-floats-to-become-magic-happens-floats or just in case:
KeepTheMagicAlive's quote:
I urge this account to stop writing these negative and revealing posts. As a Cast Member it is a part of your job to maintain, protect, and preserve the magic at all times. That especially pertains to proprietary information that has not been released yet by the company (rumor or not) . By posting about tentative or possible new parades/offerings and the details behind them you are doing more damage than good. You are hurting the people that are working SO HARD on these projects and you are taking a part of that away from them by revealing potential details. Not to mention the countless other CMs that are upset and affected about these posts. There was once a trust within entertainment that has been tarnished specifically because of posts similar to the ones posted by this account and it is very frustrating. No one in Entertainment, parades specifically, would ever share this information before Disney had planned. These people have put so much time, money, and effort into these projects, and they are so meticulously planned as to how the information will be given to the public. That is not your job and as a Cast Member you shouldn't want to do that to your fellow cast members. LittleMonsterPageantHelper, please stop posting rumors about information that Disney has not yet released about upcoming shows, rides, etc., This is a part of being a Cast Member. I understand frustrations and also excitement of future offerings but please monitor what is posted for everyone to see. This really effects so many people.
So it seems like LittleMonster who announces the rumor new parade is a cast member and talking bad about Bob Chapek is in deep trouble and KeepTheMagicAlive is also a cast member has a good point. That user shouldn't do that and it's not the user's job to that. I won't be surprise if that user gets fired if Disneyland saw this. I say bravo for KeepTheMagicAlive for teaching LittleMonster some manners, unfortunately the rumor is already spreading on the internet. And also, shame on LittleMonsterPageantHelper for being blabber mouth buttmunch for blabbing the rumor of a new parade and being a total jerk on Bob Chapek even though I have mixed reactions of him.

Well this took an interesting turn.
