Six Cast Members received the surprise of a lifetime when they were asked to lead the first, returning Festival of Fantasy parade as esteemed Grand Marshals. No one deserves this honor more than Cast – Thank you for the magic you make every single day!

We were on-hand for the first showing of the Festival of Fantasy Parade today! It should be noted that Disney removed the song “Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah” from the Parade and some characters were missing. However, we are just excited for its return!
