We’re sitting on the edge of our seats, anxiously awaiting a new nighttime parade to come to Magic Kingdom this summer. “Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away” is set to hit the parade route in the summer of 2025, and Disney has shared some exciting details about the upcoming nighttime parade.
This parade will light up with references to parades of the past and focus on some of Disney’s earliest and most iconic Walt Disney Animation Studios’ features. You’ll see these details come to life on the princess float. This float will celebrate the talent of Disney animator, Mary Blair and “Cinderella.” Anchored by a gleaming fountain of light that overflows to illuminate a cosmic ballroom, the float is just one piece of the constellation of classic and contemporary stories that will be a part of this parade. Scenes from Disney Animation’s “Moana,” “Peter Pan,” “Frozen,” “Encanto” and more will unfold on a bed of starlight as the cavalcade travels through Magic Kingdom.
Of course, the costumes will also light up our eyes with delight. The Disney Live Entertainment Costuming team has been working hard designing a fleet of glimmering costumes for “Disney Starlight.” Using a mix of innovative lighting techniques and whimsical fabrics, the team is constructing each look to be “kissed by starlight.” These glittering garbs will twinkle in perfect synchronization with the music.
