It’s been a LONG time since we’ve seen a traditional daytime parade in Magic Kingdom!

Parades returned in a smaller way during the Christmas season, and the holiday parade was available for daytime guests to see for a limited time. But the traditional, non-holiday-themed parades have been gone from Magic Kingdom since the pandemic closures. Previously, Disney shared the BIG news that the Festival of Fantasy Parade would be returning to Magic Kingdom in 2022 and now we’ve got an exciting update!

A huge thanks to our friends over at AllEars.net for sharing this exciting news with us and allowing us to share it with you all.

If you simply can’t wait until the Festival of Fantasy Parade returns to Disney World, we’ve got good news — you won’t have to wait too much longer for this beauty to return to Magic Kingdom. The Festival of Fantasy parade will make its official return to Magic Kingdom on March 9th, 2022!

If you’re a Disney history or parades expert, you’ll recognize this date as being an important one for this particular parade. March 9th actually marks the 8 year anniversary of the parade’s initial debut in Magic Kingdom!

The Parade features all kinds of floats and characters from movies like The Princess and the Frog, Tangled, Peter Pan, and more! And a VERY special & fiery float will be making it’s way back to the park. We’ll be sharing more details on that soon so be on the lookout for that!

We’ll be keeping an eye out for more updates about this parade, so be sure to check back with us for all of the latest news.
