The parade will transport fantasy, romance, music, and merriment throughout several lands. Traveling along the longest parade route in a Disney park, the parade will be led by a whimsical locomotive. A line of themed "train cars" will follow, each with its own exciting musical soundtrack and colorful cast of performers. Each train car will feature the characters, story, and music of a favorite Disney film.
Parade Units[]
Opening Unit: The parade starts with Mickey and Donald driving the engine resembling Casey Junior from Dumbo, with Dumbo holding a "D" flag with his trunk and Timothy perched on the roof of the driver's cab, as well as a blue bird from Pixar short For the Birds. This float looks similar to the Dumbo Unit from Disneyland Park (Paris)'s former daytime parade The Wonderful World of Disney Parade. Minnie, Goofy, Pluto, Daisy, Chip and Dale walk in front of it, and Doc, Happy, Sleepy, Dopey, Sneezy, Bashful, and Grumpy march behind it. For the 5th anniversary, Minnie takes Donald's place like in the shortened version during rainy weather and after the park's reopening. In addition, one of the two train cars was added and connected to the engine. Chip and Dale, Goofy, Pluto, Donald, and Daisy ride on it.
Finding Nemo Unit: Based on the 2003 Disney and Pixar film. It features Nigel carrying Dory and Marlin with his beak. Some Seagulls ride with him. This float looks similar to the unit from Tokyo Disneyland's former daytime parade, Happiness is Here Parade, but this Nigel looks more fully working animatronic. Behind it are a car lifting Mr. Ray holding Nemo and his friends and four dancers. Performers dressed as seagulls dance in front of it.
Frozen Unit: Based on the 2013 Academy Award-winning hit animated film. Olaf rides in a sled pulled by Sven, Anna, and Elsa appear at the balcony of her ice palace. Two people push a cart with Marshmallow (operated by another performer on two arms) behind it.
Mulan Unit: Based on the 1998 animated film. This Chinese-themed unit features Fa Mulan (as Ping) riding on a big version of Khan and rehearsed drummers.
