The Electrical Water Pageant Will Be Temporarily Unavailable When Disney Re-Opens
Lots of information has been released in the last few days about what Disney will look like when the parks re-open. Some of these safety guidelines have been well advertised. Only limited resorts will be open and many of the popular shows, parades and fireworks will not happen. But, there is also another group of entertainment that will also be unavailable, including the Electrical Water Pageant.
The Electrical Water Pageant History
The Electrical Water Pageant takes place every night on the seven seas lagoon in Bay Lake. It consists of 14 Electric floats that depict sea creatures. It debuted on October 25th, 1971 which was Dedication Day for Walt Disney World. It remains one of the few original open year shows running at Walt Disney World.
The Line-up
The parade has gone through many variations over the years, but here is the current float line-up that visitors earlier in 2020 would have seen each night:
Opening: “Fanfare” from The Little Mermaid
- Sea Serpent (four floats) “Boo Bop Bopbop Bop (I Love You Too)” from Pete’s Dragon
- Whale (one float) “Whale of a Tale” from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea
- Turtle (one float)
- Octopus (one float) “Poor Unfortunate Souls” from The Little Mermaid
- Three Jumping Dolphins (three floats)
- Brachiosaurus (one float) “Walk the Dinosaur” by Was (Not Was)
- Crocodile (one float) “Never Smile at a Crocodile” from Peter Pan
- Four Seahorses (one float) “Fanfare” & “Under the Sea” from The Little Mermaid
- Neptune (one float) “Fanfare” & “Under the Sea” from The Little Mermaid
All floats then change to the American Flag & Stars as they have been doing since 1971 (Source: Wikipedia)
