Hiya Julie,
Welcome to planDisney! I am thrilled that you are planning a visit to the Most Magical Place on Earth this summer. There are so many incredible things planned for
Cool KID’S SUMMER, so there has never been a better time to visit.
Speaking of incredible experiences,
Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away is one of my favorite parades. I didn’t think I could love it more, and then Peter Pan and Wendy started taking flight on their parade, and I was proven wrong! I really hope you get a chance to check it out during your visit. The best way to find out which days Disney Starlight is scheduled is to check the interactive
Hours and Events Calendar on the Walt Disney World Resort website. Here you can see the opening times, which theme parks are offering Extended Evening Hours for deluxe resort Guests (and the times), special events, fireworks, which attractions are closed for refurbishment, and which parades are available. Select a date that you are planning to visit Magic Kingdom (you can also see up to 5 days at a time) and scroll until you see “Parades.” Click it, and if Disney Starlight is scheduled, it will show you the time. This schedule is subject to change; if you don’t see it, check back closer to your vacation to confirm.
I hope this was helpful, Julie. Before I let you go, did you know that Disney Starlight starts on Main Street, U.S.A., and not Frontierland (unless it is being shown twice that day, in which case the second showing starts in Frontierland). If you love catching the start of the parade and then heading to attractions as it finishes its route, be sure to get a spot on Main Street! If you need anything else, please come back and see us.
Happy Planning,
Ashley F.
