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

The new night parade for the 50th is actually completely based around the Castle float..............

At least it's much better looking and Disneyland's Castle float is reused to often (Only for Halloween) compared to WDW's Castle Float even though it was used for the Christmas parade during the late 80's.

I'm thinking if they decide to do anything they will announce a cavalcade or additional meet & greets during the parades absence.

I usually ain't fond of cavalcade parades. But that would be a great opportunity to bring out rare characters for WDW. I remember the Disneyland's short live Street Party featured Clarice for a few years but later vanished and was last seen at the "Dancing With Disney" dance party at DCA along with Marie and Clara Cluck.

I hear the new parade will be the old castle float with executives on there just holding money and laughing as they go by

Can someone make a photoshop image of Bob Iger and co on the float?

Stopped by the MK on Friday evening to catch the parade since time is waning and I must admit it will be a sad to have no nighttime parade at the park for the foreseeable future. To me, an electrical parade and Magic Kingdom go hand in hand almost more than fireworks over Cindy's castle. Such a travesty there is not a fire under the butts of TDO to get a new parade asap.


Only 15 days? I think you miscounted because I just did the math and there are 48 non party nights with NO nighttime parade between October 9th and December 31st. I think that's certainly a cause for pitchforks and torches. Assuming the parade would be performing each of those nights.

I wonder if a random guest might drive past people while playing the "Spectromagic" music out loud like how one guest played the MSEP audio while his cart was decorated in lights months ago at Disneyland.

We ALL are

And thank goodness.

Not naming names, but that float looks like it has "Ay-jay Asulo-ray" written all over it.

I was not aware of this previous to my trip to DL: There are no float maintenance facilities in FL.

Considering there are numerous Halloween and Christmas parties coming up for the next 4 months which will have a nightly parade there is still time for them to announce something coming in 2017.

By cavalcade parades do you mean the short ones with tons of characters and only a few floats.

 

[GhostHost1000]

It's immortal I tell you!

isn't is amazing a float like that can last forever but Spectro... well...

 

[GhostHost1000]

Holding money? Don't you mean they are holding bags for people to put money into?

yes, I believe that is correct. Like an offering plate. In order to feel good about ourselves, we should drop money into their collection for the execs holier than thou

Huh? Seriously? In all of WDW they have no facilities to maintain and refurbish parade floats?

They don't do it anyway so why have them?

Well there goes FOF having a evening performance. If it were they would have kept the dining as a dinner and not lunch.

ROFL! I think I remember that damn float from one of the parades when I was a kid...and I am 53 now...lol

Let me guess the 15th Anniversary parade back in 1985?

 

[Cesar R M]

I'm just surprised and Kind of glad it didn't appear in Festival of Fantasy.

it still appeared as a temp float for the 24 hours event for Frozen x_x
