New Parade for Disneyland Park

A new parade, Mickey’s Soundsational Parade, will stomp, clang and drum its way to Disneyland® Park next year.

Here is the first preview of the artwork for Mickey’s Soundsational Parade. It gives you a glimpse of the vibrant colors and exciting array of Disney characters that may appear on the streets of Disneyland® Park in 2011.  Mickey and friends are joined by incredible cast including Mary Poppins, the Three Caballeros, Simba and friends, Peter Pan and Tinkerbell, Aladdin, and, of course, all of your favorite princesses plus the newest one, Rapunzel.

Plus, there are a whole lot of exciting elements for the new parade that can’t be captured in this artwork:

• The parade is an explosive music festival with thrilling rhythms and bold percussion that will bring to life some of the most beloved melodies from Disney films.
• Live musicians will amplify the fun. Mickey Mouse and some of your favorite Disney characters will play live and will encourage members of the crowd to join a giant jam session.
• Lively dancers will stomp out rhythms as a syncopated drum line, twinkling cymbals, steel drums and more entertain guests with sensational sounds!

The parade promises to be the most foot-stomping, infectious festival of music you’ve ever seen — or heard!  It’s “soundsational!”
