Come on everybody, get your ears on! Announced as part of the park reopening entertainment in the Magic Kingdom are Character Cavalcades, where select characters will be heading down Main Street U.S.A, waving and greeting guests from a safe distance. It may not be the traditional parades and meet and greets we know and love, but it is still a wonderful opportunity to see Mickey and friends back in the parks! There are five differently themed cavalcades you can watch throughout the day:

The Mickey & Friends Cavalcade includes our favorite Fab Five: Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto. Each character is dressed up for celebration, because having guests back in the Magic Kingdom is cause for any party!

We picked a great spot to watch this extra-special cavalcade! The music to this one is the upbeat track of the “Move It! Shake It! Mousekedance it!” parade, and we’re ready to dance along!

Although there weren’t many, it was great to see dancers with their ears on waving at guests as the float approached behind.

At the front of the golden float was Minnie and Pluto, who was looking particularly dapper in his smart purple top hat.

On the top was Mickey Mouse himself, dancing along to the music, waving at guests and sporting his snazziest polka-dot suit.
