The photo op backdrop showcases key elements from the forthcoming parade, including the Blue Fairy from “Pinocchio,” Wendy and Peter Pan in flight, Elsa positioned before an oversized snowflake, and a majestic castle. The scene effectively captures the enchanting spirit of the parade, generating excitement for its summer 2025 debut at Magic Kingdom.

First announced during the D23 Expo in August 2024, Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away promises to bring cutting-edge technology to the park’s nighttime entertainment lineup. As the first new evening parade since the Main Street Electrical Parade’s departure in 2016, the production aims to immerse guests in a dreamlike journey led by the Blue Fairy and featuring floats inspired by beloved Disney properties such as “Encanto,” “Moana,” “Peter Pan,” and “Frozen.”

The photo op serves as an enticing preview for runners participating in the Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend that is currently underway. The event offers a range of races, including the Disney Princess 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon, as well as the Disney Fairytale Challenge, which combines the 10K and Half Marathon distances. Additionally, a Disney Princess Yoga session provides a relaxing conclusion to the weekend’s festivities.
