For a while now you have been seeing some sneak peeks here and there of the new parade coming to the Disney World. Here is your first peek at a mysterious new float coming this spring to the “Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade” at Magic Kingdom.

This amazingly scary, yet beautiful Steam-punk inspired dragon pictured above represents none other than Maleficent from “Sleeping Beauty”.

This impressive dragon measures 35 feet in length and hits 26 feet above the parade route. The Maleficent Dragon has been designed in partnership with Tony Award-winner Michael Curry, whose previous collaborations with Disney Parks have included the “Tapestry of Nations” parade at Epcot and “Finding Nemo – The Musical” at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

The “Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade” is a celebration of Fantasyland. Each of the floats appearing as though the characters of that enchanted land may have had a hand in crafting them, bringing their individual stories to celebratory life on the streets of Magic Kingdom Park.

“Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade” is getting closer to the it’s debut in spring 2014!

Keep an eye on Disney Parks Blog for updates.
