    Default Main Street Electrical Parade Staying Put

    the Disney Blog today stated that MSEP is now on an "open ended run" meaning it's going to be around for a while - well beyond the ending of Summer Nightastic. No idea how long that will be, but supposedly keeping MSEP around will allow Spectro to undergo a much needed extensive refurb. So, this might be for 2 months or a year. No way of knowing. Spectro should be back at some point, but, for now, enjoy MSEP.

    We are going in October so I really hope it is still running. We have never seen it and would love to have the opportunity. We love Spectromagic and have watched it many times but would love to see something new.

    I love Spectro, probably because it was the first one I saw, but I am happy to have the opportunity to see this one. As long as they're still planning to return Spectro, I'm OK.

    I hope it is still there when we come in December. I really miss it. We were lucky enough to see it one last time at DCA the day before it's last parade.

    I wonder if this means Wishes will or will not be returning as scheduled?

    I can't stand MSEP, but would love to get to see the "Summer Nightastic" fireworks show again, it blows Wishes out of the water.

    Either way, I will really miss Spectro if I don't get to see it this year....

    me and dw will be at the world in Sept, and we love spectromagic, but seeing MSEP for only the 2nd time will be a nice change, hopefully they'll extend the the summer nightastic fireworks show, because what we saw on youtube, this fireworks show looks to be the best they've ever done. keeping our fingers crossed.

    They have Main Street Electrical Parade on the schedule now during our trip after Thanksgiving. I was really hoping to have the kids see SpectroMagic. We'll check out Main Street Electrical Parade; I don't think we've ever seen it.

    I loved this when I was a child! My children have never experienced this parade so I can only hope the parade is still running next year when we go

    You know, I take back what I said earlier. We saw it last week, and with the exception of the music, I was disappointed....and I'd seen it before (in California). Can't put my finger on it, but not impressed. I vote for something new altogether!
