Questions & Answers

When will the final performance be?

The final performance has yet to be confirmed, though it is widely believed to be around March 22nd-24th, rather than March 30th as announced on official schedules.  Therefore, Disney's Once Upon a Dream Parade will have a one-week dress rehearsal period.

Why replace such a great parade?

"Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world" Walt said, and it's true - the magic of Disneyland is constantly changing and evolving to give something new, something fresh and something better than ever before.  Since some of the floats of The Wonderful World Of Disney Parade have been in service for fifteen years themselves, the 15th Anniversary is a perfect time to launch a brand new daytime parade.

Will "Dancin' (A Catchy Rhythm)" still be used in the park?

There is a possibility that the song could be used for the 15th Anniversary Disney Characters' Express, although so far nothing has been confirmed.

What will happen to the floats now?

It has been confirmed that the Cinderella and Snow White floats will be kept in operational condition for use in other events, though the future of the other floats has yet to be decided.  They could be kept on for future events, stored outside in the backstage area or taken to the scrap heap... so now is the perfect time to celebrate their magic!
