Fantasmic! will return at Walt Disney World with an all-new sequence in 2022

the change in parade times made me think of the funny question: what time does the 3pm parade start? Now it starts at 2. 😆

I wonder how they will manage the new nighttime parade? Hire more float drivers and performers?

This is just to allow for float drivers and performers to get proper rest. Between am rehearsals for Halloween and Christmas, daily operations, events, and overnight rehearsals they are always stretched very thin.

I'm just waiting for Adv Friends to just permanently end its run already, it just lost its charm that I already explained in a separate post.., but i'll just list several reasons why it needs to end asap(before the year ends and before the current mess of Festival of Fantasy gets replaced): -Disney refuses to phase out Elena of Avalor despite the fact that the show has been cancelled for years, unless something new for the Queen of Avalor is announced at D23(theme park ride or feature film) in August, then what's the point of Elena when Miguel and the Encanto gang have already became permanent Latina Representation at the parks and Elena was so 2017(they already booted Sofia(who is a major factor of Elena's story) from MGM-Studios five yrs prior for Fancy Caillou, so if they can't bring Sofia back, then Elena will be phased out, like they should have done if the pandemic never happened in early 2021, but it didn't) -Moana being reduced to be on foot when she's more popular than Merida and Elena is a crime against humanity -Woody and Jessie are not allowed to be paired up together at more than one park at the same time, they're already paired at TSL, there's no reason for the two to be paired in this cavalcade -Characters that should be met daily like Bruno and Raya deserve meetable spots, but they don't because Disney is afraid to bring out their newer stars and yet..., we still have the disgraced Fancy Nancy meeting at MGM and Olaf not yet being phased out from Celebrity Spotlight when its purpose was to change out the characters like the old animation attraction every few months -Not enough adventurous friends, especially with a major criticism being the lack of Russell and Dug in this(a mutual told me that), and was just characters held over from the COVID era cavalcades like a few from the Goofy/Disney Friends Cavalcade https://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/why-i-think-the-adventure-friends-cavalcade-has-lost-its-charm.983501/

Hopefully with Wonderful 2025 News!!!!!!!!!! Looks like FOF is going back to 2pm for Party Season like it was Pre COVID. I'm bothered by only 1 Adv. Friends. Either add another one, or add another MMFF or Finally return the Trolley Dancers!!!! Please let MK Entertainment get a BIG Boost during or after D23!

I’m sure they can grab some artist off Sirius XM BPM 🤣.

Yeah I imagine he’d take their call. Maybe they could offer 3 nights performing at F&W to sweeten the deal. Not quite washed up enough for F&G.

My dark horse pick here is Andy Grammer. He's faded enough into semi-obscurity to be affordable, probably.

Would be nice if The Whole MK Parade Department got TLC next year!!!!! Yes, I know it may not be at D23, but It Should Be, IMO!!!!!!!!!

ToTBellHopMay 21, 2024

Not, it’s not. They don’t make things like that for MK and haven’t for years. The only question is: which B-rate pop star you kind of recognize will sing the theme song?
