Magic Kingdom Is Getting Ready For the Super Bowl Parade
If you’ve been following along with MickeyBlog you’ll know that its Disney tradition that the day after the Super Bowl, the MVP pays a visit to Walt Disney World resort where they are the star of a celebratory parade down Main Street USA! After yesterday’s victory of the Chiefs over the 49s, star player Patrick Mahomes announced to the cameras that he’s going to Disney World!
This special ceremony will take place at Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World this afternoon starting at around 2:40 pm EST! Our MickeyBlogger is on the scene and it looks like preparations are already on the way for this afternoon’s festivities.
As you can see, camera crews are already on the scene to capture the afternoon procession!
They’ve got most of the crews set up near the Plaza Gardens in front of Cinderella Castle.
Magic Kingdom is definitely busier than usual this morning and we’re noticing lots of fans in the Chiefs jerseys.
Guests entering the park will definitely notice some congestion as Disney readies for the afternoon event.
For those heading to the park today, if you want to catch the ceremony, we recommend you staking out your spot well in advance. The areas along Main Street and in the HUB fill up fast!
Also, the media presence will only increase throughout the day meaning areas of the park may be cordoned off for filming.
Whether you’re watching it on Main Street or from your home or office you are in for a special treat! You’ll get to see Patrick Mahomes accompanied by beloved Disney characters and surrounded by cheering fans! Disney Parks Blog is doing a live broadcast of the parade which you’ll find starting at 2:40pm on their Facebook page here.
For those curious, here’s a look at last year’s parade:
