BREAKING – Disney Starlight Will Debut July 20 at Magic Kingdom Park
Main Street U.S.A. will shine brighter than ever when the all-new nighttime parade, “Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away,” makes its debut on July 20, 2025, at Magic Kingdom Park in Walt Disney World Resort!
Through the power of the Blue Fairy’s magic, guests will watch dreams and wishes come true throughout this star-kissed parade. As the lights dance from float to float, guests will see favorite classic and contemporary characters from Walt Disney Animation Studios and Disney Pixar films – some for the very first time in a Disney Live Entertainment nighttime parade.
At the heart of the parade is a new original theme that blends a majestic musical score with classic melodies from beloved Disney animated films.

Guests can look forward to seeing beloved Disney characters throughout the parade in shining, shimmering splendor, all culminating in the parade’s finale. A whimsical train, inspired by the iconic Main Street Electrical Parade float, emerges to take dreamers of all ages on a ride through the stars.
Swirling ribbons of starlight reveal Goofy, Pluto, Donald Duck, and Daisy Duck leading a procession of Disney moments that includes Snow White and Dopey in a twinkling minecar, Rapunzel and Flynn Rider floating toward a gleaming lantern on their boat, and Aladdin and Jasmine taking a magic carpet ride.
Closing out the celebration are the original dreamers, Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse, draped in sparkling new looks. Together, the duo sends us off, reminding us to believe in the power of wishing upon a star.
Disney characters guests can see in the parade include:
- The Blue Fairy
- Peter Pan & Wendy
- Asha
- La Familia Madrigal (Mirabel, Isabela, Bruno)
- Elsa
- Aurora and Prince Phillip, Tiana and Prince Naveen, Belle and the Beast, and
Cinderella and Prince Charming - Miguel and Pepita
- Moana
- Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Goofy, Pluto, Donald, Daisy, Snow White, Dopey, Rapunzel, Flynn, Aladdin and Jasmine.
Guests can get show-ready with themed merchandise and enjoy a limited-edition popcorn mix, available exclusively at the Main Street Confectionary in Magic Kingdom starting on July 20. With vibrant visuals, unforgettable music, and cherished characters, “Disney Starlight” invites guests of all ages to dream big and celebrate the power of a wish.



















This looks like it will be fun. The little snippet of music sounds good – like a proper Disney parade.
Only reason I may hit a park in September. Right now, no plans for theme parks other than Epic Universe. But MAYBE I will swing a day for MK and see this parade.
That bit of music makes me want to hear the rest of it. It looks like this parade could be a big hit.
