News:
The new parade at Disneyland, Magic Happens premiered this past week. There was a special early preview of the parade on Thursday, with the official opening on Friday. The new parade has some mixed reviews. From the Weeklyteers in our chat that have seen it, they liked it. Others online thought it wasn’t a good Disney parade. After viewing videos online of the parade during the day and in the evening, this is certainly better experienced in the evening. There are a lot of lighting effects on the floats that are lost in the bright Southern California sun. – https://wdwnt.com/2020/02/photos-video-new-magic-happens-parade-dazzles-after-dark-with-special-light-effects-at-disneyland/
