Re: Does MK still have the light parade?

It's the afternoon parade. It's very good..love it. They do Spectromagic (night time light parade) on selected nights. The electrical light parade is no more, but spectro is almost as good.

Re: Does MK still have the light parade?

Children love the night parade, even though it is WAY past their bedtimes and they are exhausted! It is just so magical and such a treat for them to be out at night!

Re: Does MK still have the light parade?

This past trip was the first one we got to see Specto. I think I liked more than anyone in our group, but my 2 yo was fascinated by the lights. Don't miss it!

Re: Does MK still have the light parade?

I must see that this year!! It is top of the list. 2 years in a row we went down and missed it both times! Of course, in January, when we are there, they don't show it very often. I wish the hours would come out

The Share A Dream Come True Parade is different from the light parade. It happens during the day, and it features giant "globes" with characters inside. Very neat!

Re: Does MK still have the light parade?

Spectro is AWESOME!!! I love Jiminy Cricket and he's the host. The music is great (I have it on CD and listen all the time) and the lights are great too. I actually like it better than The Main St Electrical Parade. You definitely HAVE to see it.

the share a dream come true parade is a parade given at 3 o'clock every day. the floats are snowglobes with a certain character in each of them. characters are running around the parade route as well to meet fans along the parade route. it's a cute parade and a lot of fun to watch. you see a lot of favorite characters running around.

MK also has spectromagic, which is a light parade, that is a definite must see!! you can not miss out on this parade.

Re: Does MK still have the light parade?

I guess I will have to make arrangements to see them both. Spectro is scheduled for every night we are there. We leave in one week. I am excited although this dining plan and ADR's are sucking some of the magic out of this vacation. I hate planning!!!!!

Re: Does MK still have the light parade?

We just enjoyed Spectro last week, we did not plan to see it with out the boys, but heard themusic, and watched for a few moments. I think the electric parade is at other parks, last year I saw it in/at California Adventure. I am sure, sooner or later it will make its round.
But Spectro is just as amazing.

Re: Does MK still have the light parade?

I LOVED the Spectromagic parade! The cute 'whatevers' (clowns?) on top of the glowing balls were fascinating. I have not seen the afternoon parade, but plan to see it VERY soon!
