Guide to Every Disney World Parade
There are some Disney World parades that you can see year-round and others that are only available seasonally (and at special events).
Year-Round Parades:
- Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade
Seasonal Parades:
Mickey’s “Boo-to-You” Halloween Parade
Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade
Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade
Step into a world of enchantment and imagination with the year-round Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade.
This 12-minute parade is a celebration of beloved Disney tales. Classic characters and enchanting floats come to life in a dazzling display of color, music, and magic.
As the parade makes its way down Main Street, U.S.A., guests of all ages are immersed in a captivating journey through the worlds of Disney. Watch in awe as stunningly detailed floats, adorned with whimsical designs and intricate costumes, transport you to the heart of beloved stories.
From Ariel to Pinocchio and more, each float showcases iconic scenes and beloved characters that have captured the hearts of generations.
The Disney World parade route starts in Frontierland, which then runs through Liberty Square and finishes at Main Street U.S.A.
The best thing about this parade is that you get to see A LOT of characters in a short amount of time. You’ll appreciate this in the summer months – when you don’t want to stand still in the heated humidity for too long.
For families, Disney fans, and anyone seeking a truly magical experience, the Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade is an absolute must-see at Walt Disney World. It’s a celebration of the power of imagination, the art of storytelling, and the boundless joy that Disney brings to the hearts of millions around the world. โจ

Mickey’s “Boo-to-You” Halloween Parade at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party
Get ready to be bewitched by the spooktacular sights and sounds of Mickey’s “Boo-to-You” Halloween Parade!
This hauntingly delightful parade is a Halloween extravaganza like no other, where the spirit of the season comes alive with a ghoulishly good time.
During this parade, Mickey and his friends in their most boo-tiful costumes.
From the first drumbeat to the last chord, “Boo-to-You” Halloween Parade casts a spell on you with its enchanting music, captivating choreography, and incredible attention to detail.
Prepare to be thrilled by a parade that’s both eerie and endearing, as frightful floats glide by, featuring beloved characters in spooktacular settings.
Whether you’re there for Mickey, the villains or the ghosts, you will have a blast!
Just beware of the Headless Horseman …
In my humble opinion, this is significantly better than the Festival of Fantasy parade, as you’re not just seeing the characters you know and love.
Instead, you’re seeing the characters you know and love dressed in their Halloween costumes!
The only negative is that you can only watch this parade at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. This requires another ticket for the exclusive event.
But if you’re attending the Halloween Party anyway, don’t skip this 20-minute parade! I know it’s tempting to go on all the attractions while the wait times are short or non-existent. But this is something you won’t want to miss! ๐๐ป

Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party
Celebrate the holiday season with Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party!
During this parade, join Mickey and Minnie to spread holiday happiness to all. From the first float to the last, wave to beloved characters relishing in the magic of Christmas.
The complete parade route from Frontierland to Main Street U.S.A. is transformed into a winter wonderland with dancing gingerbread people and toy soldiers marching by.
During the 25-minute parade, you will see what feels like every Disney character ever created – all wishing you a “merry Christmas”.
But despite the name of the parade (and party), Mickey Mouse isn’t the main man of this parade. Instead, it’s Santa Claus!
Just like the Halloween parade, in order to view this parade, you will need a ticket to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas party.
If you’re going to the party, this is a magical, festive experience you can’t miss. ๐๐ ๐
