There’s a big parade change hitting Magic Kingdom tomorrow, and we don’t want you to get stranded!

We’re here to help you make sure you’re feeling fully prepared for your upcoming trip, and that means knowing everything that’s happening in the parks! The holiday season is one of the busiest times of year, which means that things also get about 50x more confusing, but that’s why you’re reading our blog right here, right now. Instead of seeing the Festival of Fantasy parade in Magic Kingdom for the remainder of this year, you’ll get a chance to see Disney World’s holiday parade instead!
Magic Kingdom’s holiday parade, Mickey’s Once Upon A Christmastime Parade, can usually only be seen during Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. However, during these last ten days of the year (starting tomorrow), you can see the parade during the day!

From December 22nd through December 31st, Magic Kingdom guests will be able to experience Mickey’s Once Upon A Christmastime Parade at 12 PM and 3 PM, and the Disney Starlight at 7 PM and 9:45 PM (except for December 30th and 31st, when it will show at 6:30 PM and 9 PM instead).

Mickey’s Once Upon A Christmastime Parade will begin in Frontierland and continue up Main Street, U.S.A, while Disney Starlight will start on Main Street and end in Frontierland. Regardless of which parade you’re seeing, we suggest grabbing a spot extra early, especially if you’re hoping to snag a spot on Main Street!
