The new nighttime parade coming to the Magic Kingdom will be called Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away.

It was originally announced at D23 in August 2024 and confirmed at that time to debut in summer 2025. It will have floats featuring Encanto, Moana, Peter Pan, and more. The story goes that the Blue Fairy (from “Pinocchio”) will bring the parade to life and also star in it.

Walt Disney World opened a casting call for Disney Starlight in September 2024. It will be the first nighttime parade at the Magic Kingdom (during regular park hours) since the Main Street Electrical Parade left in 2016.
