Disney revealed a “Coco” float and the official poster for “Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away,” a brand-new Magic Kingdom nighttime parade.
Disney Starlight Parade Poster & Coco Float
The new “Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away” poster features Mary Blair-inspired artwork of the Blue Fairy, Peter Pan and Wendy, Moana, Miguel and Dante, Cinderella and Prince Charming, and Elsa. The poster will join other attraction and entertainment posters below the Main Street, U.S.A. train station when the parade debuts at Magic Kingdom this summer.
The “Coco” parade float features Miguel with his guitar and Dante in alebrije form at the front of the marigold bridge to the Land of the Dead. Pepita stands on the bridge with her wings spread. At the back of the float are sparkling buildings. The float will be accompanied by Mariachi music and sugar skull fireworks.
“Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away” will debut this summer, although Disney hasn’t announced an exact date. The Disney Live Entertainment team is designing and choreographing the parade in Florida, recording music in London, and constructing floats across the U.S.A.
This will be the first nighttime parade to regularly perform at Magic Kingdom since the final run of the Main Street Electrical Parade in 2016. Previously-released concept art showcases the lead float featuring the Blue Fairy, plus floats featuring Peter Pan and Wendy, Elsa, “Encanto” characters, Disney Princesses and Princes, and Moana.
“Disney Starlight” was recently added to the Walt Disney World website and to the My Disney Experience app.
