Main Street Electrical Parade to return to Disneyland with another hard ticket event.
The Main Street Electrical Parade was sent back to Disneyland to receive some repair work before returning to duty in January 2017. Disney has announced that the aging parade will return, but to be among the first night will cost you.
Main Street Electrical Parade will return to Disneyland from January 20 through June 18, 2017 at Disneyland Park. June 18, 1972 is the date the parade first began. It will take the place of the widely well-received "Paint the Night" parade.
During this limited run Disney is said to offer special merchandise and food offerings that are going to be inspired by the Main Street Electrical Parade. Those details will be revealed later.
If you want to view the parade before the other Disneyland guests, you will be able to purchase a special event ticket that allows you to see the parade on January 19, 2017.
Tickets go on sale for Disneyland Resort Annual Passholders tomorrow, Dec. 6, and to the general public on December 13. Information will be available on Disneyland.com beginning tomorrow.
Is this special event something in which you'd like to participate?
will it be back in wdw after the summer then?
No, we won't see it again. It will likely retire after June
I can't believe that Disney would not just have the parade as part of the ticket price. Seems like there are always more & more costs tacked on to see things.. No, even if I was going to be there I wouldn't want to pay extra. I saw it yrs ago and it's really nice though.
They will after the first day. I wouldn't pay extra to see it the first day though.
So no parades at Disney World in February?
Electrical Parade is gone.
I am going to Disneyland in late February/early March. I am excited to see it again (WDW 2015), Do you have any idea if they will have fireworks at Disney or World of Color at CA? There is so much more info about WDW than DL. Thanks.
They will have both fireworks and woc during your stay. I'm working on adding more dl info too. That's why I changed up my menu
It would be so great if Paint the Night came to WDW. Any chance?
Curious how they will do a parade but make it so only paying guests can see it? Will it be after closing or something?
Yes, after hours event for 19th. Regular guests see it beginning 20th
