Spectromagic Parade

Does anyone know when this parade takes place? Are there only certain nights and times? We are going in Early December and would like to see it.

Re: Spectromagic Parade

It is only at night, during high season it ususally is going every night, sometimes twice a night. It will all dpepend on the hours. When you are three months out, they should release the park hours on the WDW website, when you look at the calendar for hours, clcik on the number of the day of the month and it should tell you when Wishes and Spectro are playing.....

If you go here: http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw...onthlyViewPage

You can check schedules.

Spectromagic runs almost every night, an hour before Wishes (8pm or 9pm, depending on the time of year). On very busy nights, it runs twice: once an hour before Wishes and once an hour afterwards.

It usually only runs about 4-5 times per week in Value season, which would be early December.

The December calendar will likley be set and viewable in October.

There is a quick link to the park hours on the front page of Disney Central. Just click the park you're interested in and it will take you right there.

If you're going in Dec, you'll know for sure they'll be doing the special Holiday version during the MVMCP.

Re: Spectromagic Parade

Make sure you get there early to get a spot. The crowds sometimes are 5-10 people back from the street. After the parade, let the crowds go their way and stake out a spot for Wishes.

Definately both are must sees.

Re: Spectromagic Parade

If there are 2 parades on that night then watch the second one. We walked onto empty rides during the first show and then watched the second along a virtually empty route just over the wooden bridge past the castle.

Re: Spectromagic Parade

spectromagic does play on selected nights, mainly when they expect bigger crowds like on a saturday night. depending on the season, the parade runs twice a night! which is great because a good majority of the people in the park goes to see the first show and go on to do other things when the second show plays. you'll get a better spot to see the parade. of course, the parade runs at night. what a way to end your day at MK. it is definitely a must see. can not miss spectromagic.

Re: Spectromagic Parade

You all have got me really excited to see it now. I can't wait. I was trying to figure out when to schedule our PS/AR for dinner. Want to make sure there is not a conflict. I would be upset.
