Disney Starlight Parade Schedule Released Through Early October

Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away parade at Magic Kingdom will continue twice nightly performances through at least early October.

WDWNT previously reported the new nighttime parade would continue twice nightly performances through at least August. The Disney Starlight parade webpage now lists performances at 9 p.m. and 11 p.m. through October 6, 2025.

The parade is not performed on dates with a Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party, but will be performed twice every other evening. This also confirms Magic Kingdom will continue staying open late enough to accommodate the parade, although some dates list a park closing time of 10 p.m. We expect park operating hours will be officially adjusted soon.

Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away opened in July. It is the first year-round nighttime parade at Magic Kingdom since the Main Street Electrical Parade ended its run in 2016. The floats feature the Blue Fairy, Peter Pan and Wendy, Asha from Wish, the Madrigal family from Encanto, Elsa, Disney Princesses and Princes, Miguel and Pepita from Coco, Moana, and Mickey and Friends. The final float is the original character Whimsy the train.

The parade’s soundtrack is available on streaming services. There is Disney Starlight merchandise.
