I am so excited to let my clients know, Disney’s “Festival of Fantasy” Parade returns to Magic Kingdom Park on March 9, 2022 – which just so happens to be the anniversary of the debut of the parade in 2014! The parade will appear in the park twice a day - what a great bonus! Times have not been announced, but we will keep an eye on My Disney Experience to see when this info becomes available.
Disney also announced MORE great entertainment returning to the Magic Kingdom, including a show on the Cinderella Castle Stage, “Mickey’s Magical Friendship Faire.” This show will start on February 25, 2022! This show will have some new enhancements for the 50th Anniversary Celebration, so you can be sure to see Mickey and friends in their amazing EARidescent fashions! Plus the show will feature a brand-new closing song, “Where the Magic Feels Like Home.” This is a great show to watch with the whole fam, and I am so excited it is returning with re-imagined scenes to celebrate the 50th Anniversary!
FINALLY - a brand-new character cavalcade is coming to the Magic Kingdom! This news makes me believe that the cavalcades are here to stay and I am SO for it! I love these quick character parades that happen in the parks! They are truly magical, and this cavalcade is packed with some amazing characters!
The new cavalcade is called “Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade” and will star more than 30 of your favorite Pixar and Disney stars. Including Nick and Judy from “Zootopia,” Baloo and King Louie from “The Jungle Book,” José Carioca and Panchito from “The Three Caballeros,” plus Merida, Moana, The Incredibles, and more – including the Magic Kingdom debut of Miguel from “Coco”! This new cavalcade will hit the streets of the Magic Kingdom starting February 11, 2022!
Disney also reiterated that Fantastic is set to open later this year, but a date has not been given yet! We’ll be looking for that news to drop and make sure you’r the first in the know!
