Nighttime spectaculars ignite the night once again
Over the past five decades, the “Main Street Electrical Parade” has brought generations of family and friends from around the world together to delight in its nighttime magic and imagination. Encapsulating that enduring appeal, Disney Live Entertainment is introducing an all-new, grand finale that celebrates 50 years of togetherness and continues the enchantment for a whole new generation of dreamers. This universal theme is reflected in the creative concept of the new finale sequence, and it continues the evolution of this cherished spectacular.
Drawing inspiration from Disney Legend Mary Blair’s iconic art style on “it’s a small world” and the design of classic “Main Street Electrical Parade” floats, these stories are interpreted in thousands of sparkling lights and electro-synthe-magnetic musical sound, with unique representations of beloved characters as animated dolls.
As it passes by, guests along the parade route see a different set of stories depicted on each side of the float, presenting stylized scenes from more than a dozen Walt Disney Animation Studios and Pixar Animation Studios films such as “Encanto,” “Frozen,” “The Jungle Book,” “Raya and the Last Dragon,” “Aladdin,” “Coco,” “Mulan,” “Brave,” “The Princess and the Frog” and more.

“World of Color” at Disney California Adventure brings animation to life with powerful fountains that create an immense screen of water.
