As we recently reported, Disney used the Destination D23 event to announce the return of the Festival of Fantasy parade. The parade is set to return to the Magic Kingdom in 2022. However, the parade that returns may not be what it once was.

The most impressive float in the Festival of Fantasy parade may not return. The Maleficent dragon float is rumored to be relegated to after hours events. If that is true, guests will need to pay for a hard ticket event to see the fire breathing dragon in action.

Also, the number of dancers in each parade unit may be reduced to two. The reduction in dancers would align with a similar reduction for the Christmas parade.

What do you think of these rumored changes to Festival of Fantasy? If the dragon float and numerous dancers are eliminated, does the parade still interest you? Let us know in the comments.
