Fans have been waiting a very long time for this magical Disney parade to return!
Disney Parades
We were delighted when the Festival of Fantasy Parade returned this year to Walt Disney World. This triumphant return did leave our Disney pals on the West Coast a little left out. Back in September 2022 at the D23 Expo, Disney shared that the Magic Happens Parade will return to Disneyland.
On February 27, 2020, Disneyland premiered its first new daytime parade in over a decade, called “Magic Happens.” This parade was greatly enjoyed by guests for only a short period of time due to the closure of the parks in March 2020. Since that time the parade has been missing.

Return Dates
The parade features several distinct “stories,” with a delightful mix of characters. Watch Moana ride the crest of a beautiful wave in her voyager canoe, followed by Coco’s guitar-strumming Miguel, who is joined by his dog Danté and other fantastical spirit animals.
Behold the enchanted forest from Frozen 2, as Anna, Elsa, Olaf, Kristoff and Sven pass by. Then prepare for the grandest finale of all as the parade commemorates memorable story moments from Sleeping Beauty and other Disney classics. It’s an incredible procession not to be missed!
Disney Parks just announced that “Magic Happens” will return on February 24, 2023. This is almost 3 years after it first debuted. We can’t wait for its triumphant return.
