Parade at MK

Isn't the parade always at 3?

Yes. The 3 o'clock parade is, in fact, at 3 o'clock.

Yes. The 3 o'clock parade is, in fact, at 3 o'clock.

It starts at 3 in Frontierland. Depending on where you are on the parade route, it may be closer to 3 or closer to 3:30 by the time it starts where you are.

The parade is over by 4. This is more than likely why for MNSSHP and MVMCP, party guests can enter starting at 4, the 3pm parade is completely finished. I know this doesn't apply to your situation, just pointing this out.

Yes. The 3 o'clock parade is, in fact, at 3 o'clock.

My point was that the OP seemed to imply that some days it was at a different time, which surprised me since it's usually at 3. I didn't know it could be different over spring break.
I'm not one of those dumb "at what time is the 3 o'clock parade today?" kind of person.

That's not what I was implying. I was simply trying to figure out a schedule that would work for us since I know my kids would be super tired by the since they will be up early that morning

As stated earlier, get set up by the train station. Parade won't reach you until 3:20-ish or so, by the time the parade is finished there, it will be closer to 4pm. Just be prepared, like I mentioned earlier, that the 3pm parade is the "finishing chapter" on most families morning/afternoon and it's a giant mass of humanity that follows the parade from Frontierland all the way to the exit of the park. So you may want to see what you can of the parade and hit the road before it's over and the crowds get to the exit.

As someone said above, depends on what day you are at MK. As an example this week starting Feb 13 Friday and on through Feb 21 two FoF parades will perform just like near Easter. 12:00 and again at 3:30. Check the online WDW calendar to find your dates. They double up when extra large crowds are expected.

I know. I was agreeing with you.
