The holiday season in Disney World means there’s a LOT going on at one time. Yes, even more so than usual, and that means one day in the parks could look completely different from what it did just 24 hours prior.

This is especially true when there are TV specials that film in Magic Kingdom during the season, and one of those is coming up fast! While the special itself won’t air until closer to Christmas, the ABC Holiday Parade taping of Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade will take place on November 10th and 11th this year. Yes, that means you could get a chance to see this beloved parade weeks early, or without a Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party ticket, but it also means other entertainment around the park has been adjusted!
Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade will happen at 2 PM on both November 10th and 11th this year for the taping, which means that the Festival of Fantasy Parade won’t be happening either of those days. Now, Disney Starlight will be taking place twice each day, once at 6:45 PM and the other at 9 PM, so you will still have a chance to catch two parades in one day.

That’s far from the only entertainment that will be affected, though. Mickey’s Magical Friendship Faire will be switching times as well. On November 10th, the show will take place at 9:15 AM and 12 PM…

…and on November 11th, the show will take place at 10:10 AM, 11:35 AM, 12:45 PM, and 4 PM.

The Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade will also see a change, but only on November 10th. The cavalcade usually begins at 11:05 AM, but there are currently no showtimes listed for November 10th. However, the cavalcade will be happening at 11:05 AM as usual on November 11th.

Our beloved Dapper Dans will also see a shift! There won’t be any showtimes for them on November 10th, and they’ll have one less showing on November 11th, appearing at 9 AM, 9:50 AM, 10:40 AM, 12:05 PM, 1:10 PM, and 3:55 PM.

Finally, the Casey’s Corner Pianist will also be playing fewer times throughout both days. November 10th, you can see them at 11:40 AM, 12:25 PM, and 5:30 PM. On November 11th, you can watch them play at 10:50 AM, 12 PM, 1:15 PM, 3:40 PM, 4:35 PM, and 5:30 PM.
