    “Will the starlight parade be happening during the week of August 25 to September 3?” Thanks in advance!

    Hi Julianna!

    Thanks for visiting us at planDisney!

    When I peeked at the Hours & Events Calendar, it looks like the Disney Starlight parade times have not been announced for August and September yet. I’d keep an eye out in the coming days for any updates to the calendar. But in the meantime, here are a couple of things to think about when planning your Magic Kingdom nights. 

    First, it’s been announced that the Disney Starlight parade will not be shown on nights that the Magic Kingdom hosts Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. Within the timeframe you provided, there will be 3 Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party nights: August 26, August 29, and September 2.

    Next, as of now, Happily Ever After (the fireworks show at the Magic Kingdom) will be shown at 10 PM until August 30, 2025. Then, beginning on August 31, 2025, the showtime changes to 9:30 PM according to the calendar. When the parade debuts, it will be shown 1 hour before the fireworks (at 9 PM) and 1 hour after the fireworks (at 11 PM). So, the parade may end up being at slightly different times throughout your trip based on what time Happily Ever After will be shown. 

    Of course, these times are all subject to change. You can find the most up-to-date information on Disney World’s website or the My Disney Experience app.  

    While I couldn’t give you a specific answer, I hope it at least gives you some guidance on what to expect! If you have any other questions, let us know. We’re always happy to help in any way we can!
