    I am an annual passholder and will be in Disney World from 8/13 - 8/16. I would like to see the new Starlight parade but the schedule does not show it is happening any of the nights I am there. Is the schedule just not up to date?

    Hiya Mary! Thank you for sending in your question, and welcome to planDisney! Using that annual pass is just a few short days away. How delightful that you'll have the chance to see the new nighttime parade Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away! I've missed the twinkling magic of having a lighted nighttime parade at Disney World, and am counting the days to experience Starlight.

    Turns out it's true that all you need is a little faith, trust, and pixie-dust, Mary! I've checked the Parks Operating Calendar for Magic Kingdom and found the following Disney Starlight parade times during your upcoming dates.

    • Wednesday, August 13 - Starlight parade at 9:00 pm and 11:00 pm
    • Thursday, August 14 - Starlight parade at 9:00 pm and 11:00 pm
    • Friday, August 15 - No Starlight parade due to Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party (Park closes at 6:00 pm to those without event tickets.)
    • Saturday, August 16 - Starlight parade at 9:00 pm and 11:00 pm

    I recommend trying to work in one of those earlier parade viewing experiences, as it may be so wonderful you'll need to see an encore performance at another time!

    I hope this helps you put the practically perfect finishing touches on your park plans. Enjoy every magical moment of your evening under the stars and parade lights at Walt Disney World! Please let me know if I can assist with any other questions, advice, or recommendations to help you have the best trip ever.

    See ya' real soon!
