The brand-new Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade, featuring about 30 Disney and Pixar characters, debuted at Magic Kingdom today and we were there for the first performance.
The cavalcade starts with two Cast Members carrying a banner.
Miguel from “Coco” leads the cavalcade in his first Magic Kingdom performance.
He’s followed by Woody, Jessie, Mr. Incredible, and Elastigirl for a small Pixar group.
This is the Walt Disney World debut of new Woody and Jessie costumes.
Most of the characters walk, but there are two floats.
The floats are decorated with landscapes and the cavalcade’s compass logo.
The first float carries a group of princesses: Merida, Elena, Moana, Mulan, and Pocahontas.
They’re followed by some animal friends: Meeko, Timon, Terk, Baloo, and King Louie.
Then Jasmine, Aladdin, and Genie wave at guests before the next float arrives.
You may recognize the floats from previous Magic Kingdom parades and cavalcades, they’ve just been redecorated.
The second float transports Nick Wilde, Judy Hopps, Clarabelle Cow, José Carioca, and Panchito.
They’re followed by a somewhat random final assortment of characters: Marie, Max, Stitch, Mary Poppins, and Bert.
The cavalcade also has a new version of “Vamos!” from the “Move It, Shake It, Celebrate It” cavalcade.
Watch the full Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade below.

It seems they must’ve had extra molds from the floats since the old cavalcades are with the new one.
