| | Dreams are amazing things – all it takes is a
little courage (and a sprinkling of pixie dust) to set them free! And
once they’re free? There’s no stopping them! Imagination runs
riot, Fun and Laughter surrounds us all and the greatest Fantasy you’ve ever
seen unfolds before your eyes… The Parade |  | Float 1: Dream of Imagination featuring Mickey, Minnie and the Disney VIPs The parade begins with a burst of
imagination, a spark of magic! And then, the dreams take flight!
Mickey and Minnie hover high in the sky in a golden hot air balloon!
They’ve dropped anchor on a most dreamy location, the purple curve of a
smiling moon, resting on a storybook. Donald showers the moon in sparkling
glitter, as Goofy rests on the pile of storybooks and blows bubbles into the
clouds! |  | Float 2: Dream of Fun and Laughter featuring Alice in Wonderland, Pinocchio A traditional fairytale hut is featured at
the centre of the float, used by Alice in Wonderland first and then
Pinocchio at the rear. The Pinocchio section appears to feature “marionnette”
bungee artists similar to those in Walt Disney’s Parade of Dreams at
Disneyland California, bouncing on bungee ropes from supports high above. |  | Float 3: Dream of Friendship featuring Winnie the Pooh, Toy Story Features Toy Story and Winnie the Pooh
characters, with a giant storybook in the middle separating the two themes.
At the front, Woody joins his Roundup Gang to remind them “you’ve got a
friend in me”, whilst at the back Pooh’s birthday party is in full swing,
featuring all his best friends from the Hundred Acre Wood. |  | Float 4: Dream of Fantasy featuring Peter Pan, Mary Poppins This very British float will feature a
whimsically styled Big Ben tower in the centre, poking through the clouds,
with Peter Pan’s glittering pirate ship at the front and Mary Poppins’
classic “jolly holiday” carousel behind, as a fleet of kites hovers above. |  | Float 5: Dream of Power featuring Chernabog, Jafar, Ursula and more
Disney Villains The Disney Villains are out to take
command of the parade, on a dark and menacing float filled with viciousness!
As the serpent Jafar slithers along at the front, Chernabog towers over the
parade route on the desolate summit of Bald Mountain. Bringing up the
rear is the slimy sea monster Ursula. |  | Float 6: Dream of Adventure featuring The Lion King, The Jungle Book Serving The Lion King and The Jungle Book,
a giant tree towers out of the middle of float 6, with Simba on Pride Rock
before it and King Louie and Baloo behind. You can see various animals from
both films in the tree, including monkeys and giraffes. Rafiki is clinging
to the tree behind Pride Rock, with Timon and Pumbaa joining in the
celebrations below. |  | Float 7: Dream of Romance (Part 1) featuring The Little Mermaid, Aladdin A tropical garden oasis is the setting for
Ariel and Jasmine, with beautiful flowers and an enchanted tree bringing a
rainbow of colour to their romantic pursuits. |  | Float 8: Dream of Romance (Part 2) featuring Snow White, Cinderella, Sleeping
Beauty, Beauty and the Beast The grand finale to the entire parade,
this giant float is due to feature not two but four princesses! The initial
gazebo is likely for Beauty and the Beast, whilst the ornate fairytale bride
is occupied by Snow White and her prince. On the hill before the giant
castle stands Cinderella and Prince Charming. Sleeping Beauty is possibly
featured behind the castle, as a finale – afterall, the parade is named
after one of her songs! The rumours of this float being articulated
(split into two free-moving, joined sections) look to be quite possible. | | | Float descriptions are based on reported
facts about the parade and the illustrations shown, therefore some
inaccuracies compared to the final designs are possible. | | |
