The coming nighttime parade at Disney's Magic Kingdom will feature an abundance of wonder and whimsy
On the latest episode of Disney's "We Call it Imagineering", the team shared several new insights to the coming 'Disney Starlight: Dream The Night Away' Parade. One of the episode highlights was the exclusive first look at an all new original character for the parade.
Whimsy, the locomotive chugging away with the final train float, is an all new character bringing magic to the "Disney Starlight: Dream The Night Away" Parade. Made from starlight, Whimsy is described as playful and childlike with his youthful spirt that dances through the parade route. Inspired by Walt Disney's Silly Symphony animated shorts, Whimsy helps bring some of the older animation feels to this new parade.
Whimsy will be responsible for pulling the final train cars that make up the parade. Whimsy will have cars themed for Aladdin, Tangled, Snow White and Mickey Mouse.
Catch Whimsy and the debut of the "Disney Starlight: Dream The Night Away" parade on July 20th at 9pm and again at 11pm. The parade will make its journey through the Magic Kingdom nightly, with show exclusions during Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party.
Are you looking forward to seeing Whimsy and the new 'Disney Starlight: Dream The Night Away" Parade?
