PHOTOS & VIDEOS: A Christmas Fantasy Parade at Disneyland
We love the entertainment at the Disneyland during the holiday season. From the twinkling lights at “it’s a small world!” to the snow-topped caps at Sleeping Beauty Castle, the entire park feels transformed to a wintry wonderland.
One of the most popular parades also debuts for the season – A Christmas Fantasy Parade.

Our MickeyBlog crew was on the ground capturing the first showing of this parade, which debuted on Friday, November 15th. Let’s take a peek at what to expect at this year’s parade!

Let’s start the parade off right with a view of the gorgeous Christmas tree down Main Street, U.S.A.

We also saw a dancing ballerina, a teddy bear, and the classic marching toy soldiers!

A Christmas Fantasy Parade happens every day at 2:30 and 5:30 p.m. Popular viewing areas, like Main Street, U.S.A., can get very crowded before the parade, so make sure to get there early for a good spot! You can catch this parade until January 6, 2025.
