Hi Jae,
Thanks for marching over to planDisney with your question! I can’t see a band at
Walt Disney World Resort without singing along to the original Mickey Mouse Club theme song, so now I’ll be humming the tune all day!
I’m glad you are planning to support your local band as they play at
Magic Kingdom Park. While we don’t have a schedule for these events, I can pass along a few notes so you can be in tune when they strike up the band.
First, contact the local band director to see if they have a confirmed time yet. Sometimes the exact time isn’t confirmed until much closer to the performance, but they should at least know the date of the performance. Now, I confirmed with a Cast Member that most band performances in Magic Kingdom Park occur just before the parade. The
Disney Festival of Fantasy is typically scheduled for noon and 3:00 p.m. so that you can anticipate their performance around those times. Of course, parade and performance times are subject to change, so check your
My Disney Experience app for the daily schedule. Select Entertainment from the Magic Kingdom Park menu and you should see an updated schedule for the day you are visiting.
Jae, here’s another toe-tapping tip! Be sure to catch a performance of the
Main Street Philharmonic at Main Street, U.S.A.! This marching band performs down Main Street, U.S.A., and at Storybook Circus in Fantasyland playing many favorite tunes and welcoming participation from Guests. I never miss a chance to enjoy their performances.
I hope you hit all the high notes on your vacation, Jae. Please let us know if you would like us to chime in with other tips.
Wishing you many magical memories,
Shannon
