Paint the night is not moving to Disney World. Stop bumping this.

I wonder what TDL did with the Dreamlights floats that's were swapped out for new ones? The bugs in the Alice section never returned.

That giant caterpillar and Lady Bug though!

Am I the only one who feels like the Tokyo bugs are creepy and look cheap with the plasticity type heads. A lot bigger though just like the rest if the parade.

PTN coming wouldn't be a total surprise, but not yet.

The original plan was a brand new purpose built night parade in 2021. There was some thought in accelerating this plan; if that's happening I don't know.

Do you know if the plans for the parde would be on par with something like, oh I don't know, Dreamlights?

I actually don't mind there looks and are actually cute to look at.

PTN to Tokyo?

Have you heard if this is still the plan? If it is, does it possibly mean PTN to TDL?

Dunno. Didnt ask. Possible? I suppose. Again, two month old info.

No. They went to Hong Kong.

Thanks, What happened to them in HK?

So is tokyo getting a new parade and we are getting their dreamlights? If so that would be such a plus lol As sad as that is their scraps is better than our best foot forward.

PTN to Tokyo?

It has been hinted through this image tokyo has released themselves that they are getting a new original nighttime parade (tokyo that is) so no ptn over there..

Could you re-load the image?

But they just spent money to renew it last year, so I don't think that's true.

Once again the Electrical Parade has taken down 2 parades, one extremely successful and one parade that in my opinion has failed. I don't think Paint the night is cutting it and the maintenance is probably starting to add up with hat technology and style lighting. They did it right at Tokyo with their electrical parade. with all the down time the Electrical Parade has I have a feeling the Main Street Electrical Parade is going to have some very similar improvements. Heres a mid summer crowd for Paint the Night, they also appear to be having some issues with the parade.

You can't compare Dreamlights to the original MSEP from a technical standpoint. Dreamlights is 15 years and most of the floats have been changed out since then. In MSEP's case, however, the parade is 40 years old and so is every float in it with the exception of the 2009 Tinkerbell float. If any maintenance team is able to fix that parade, I'll be beyond amazed.

That float was disassembled and used in PTN.

What float was it used for?

Don't know.

I get we're all about cuts and eliminating cost, but I don't for a minute believe that the MK will not have a nighttime parade or some equivalent replacement. It's the showpiece of WDW (MK not a nighttime parade).

 

[TTA94]

MK has never not had a nighttime parade for a long period of time correct?

 

[marni1971]

First time for everything.

Night or electrical parade?

 

[MagicHappens1971]

No. To my knowledge the only time it didn't have a nighttime parade was between it's opening in 1971 and 1977.

Don't say that martin! Hopefully MK has some sort of plan.

No. To my knowledge the only time it didn't have a nighttime parade was between it's opening in 1971 and 1977.

Looking online, for those they just did the day parade at 9PM along with the afternoon performance, So it;s not like they haven't done this before Hopefully we'll get something like this for the time being.

At least this can give some time for people at Disney to have more time to know what there idea for the new electrical parade would be.

@marni1971 Are you hearing if the plan is to run FOF at night after October 9th?
