Parade of Dreams

Shot in April 2006. An edit of Walt Disney's Parade of Dreams, Disneyland's 50th anniversary parade.

I use to work there and I hated the song because I heard it everyday for years. But after hearing it so many times, I fell in love and started to dance with my co-workers. Now it is my only favorite parade ever at Disneyland. Bring it back for the 100 years anniversary!

I wish take my daughter south Katherine duff go dinesyland on March 5 on her brithday with my daughter mother Hilary duff she be happy for her thinks

While this is not my favorite parade, it was the first one I saw. This video takes me back to my first ever visit to Disneyland. My 5-year-old brain didn't realize it at the time, but it was the first of many trips as well as the start of a beautiful love affair with Disneyland. This takes me right back to that. I teared up at the end. Remembering back to all the times I've been to Disneyland, each one being such a magical experience, but also one that I took for granted. This is 2020. As of right now, Disneyland has been closed for 9 months, with no reopening date in sight. I know that whenever it does reopen, as soon as I walk through those gates, it will be just like I was a little kid again. And I would want this parade to be rolling down Main Street as I go back in. Like I said, it's not my favorite parade. It's not even in my top 5. However, it will hold a special place in my heart because of how it reminds me of my first trip. Side note, this parade looks absolutely gorgeous at dusk, but then again, dusk is probably the best time to be in the park. Such an amazing energy at that point, and this video really does a great job at showcasing it with those sunset shots. Absolutely incredible work.

Watching in 2020. Still my favorite parade Disneyland ever made. Thank you for recording and posting this great memory.

[@OCWatchCatMEOW]

[@cameryn4705]

The quality is so good

[@QueenShireen]

Thank you for filming the pearl dancers so well. Needed that for something.

[@anamiles6666]

When I hear this song there is tears rolling down my face my 2 sons were little when my husband passed away, and we went to Disneyland, I will always have fond memories of this song.

[@almandot]

Sorry to hear, but I'm glad you can look back on something of the time fondly.

[@anamiles6666]

Thank you.@@almandot

[@anniefinch6843]

[@rextony22]

Better thân 60 anniversary

[@zeroandjiji]

back when disneyland was good and actually cared..takes me back to when I was young and there would be little to no people there. now people travel all over the world just to come and it gets too crowded, the lines get crazy and it just ruined the park for me tbh. i would much rather watch videos of the rides and events now than go myself..wish i could go back in time

[@shelleyrightmyer6421]

Ilove you somuch miss you somuch

[@thaddeuschambers66]

[@deonnahailstalk5982]

I got laughed at back when I was living in Camden at the library when I was singing and some kids was laughing and mocking me and one person posted the video on Facebook and wrote 15 mean comments instead of nice comments about me and I was embarrassed and upset about it no one likes my talent I like to sing a lot while listening to music and singing along and dancing too any positive advice for me about my situation please I need a new friend someone who’ll accept me for who I am and not judge me just because I’m different from other people please how can I find my happily ever after any advice for me am I considered a princess like princess Aurora my hair is naturally curly

[@axeld6235]

[@MarianaGarciaGrijalva]

@@disneydancer99 I did! It was magical!

[@emmanueldimaano1836]

I want them to bring that parade back at least for two more years because that was one of my favorite parades ever in Disneylands history I love that parade so much that they should at least bring it back for at least 2 more years

[@NostalgictotheMax]

I perfer this parade to the Soundsational Parade, it's just so creative and highly detailed!

[@tatecaswell5689]

♡ PowerlineSnowy ♡ agreed #commented #two years later

[@FreeSpiritPaulette]

@NostalgicToTheMax I agree but in my opinion “celebrate! - a street party” is legendary. 😊

[@ZoeAlexa11]

I love how they have all the fairy godmothers together

[@coolness06]

This parade had the most spectacular show stop ever!

[@An1mag1qu3]

Simba dancing and singing to the music made my heart melt...

[@Big_Poppa_Bear]

So remember doing Guest Control for this parade. "Welcome" song always teared up.

[@kathieperino5711]

Wonderful memories of our daughter dancing in this parade. She made lifelong friends with the other cast members. We loved our time following them!

[@flwrgrl13]

Kathie Perino what unit was she in?

[@jamesjuarez1252]

Disneyland's 50th Anniversary celebrations was such a magical and special time there. SO many beautiful moments and memories. Thank you xo

[@joannemartin4106]

I saw this for the first time on mothers day 2005 with my mom of 79 years , she passed away in 2007 I hear this and I remember the memory I made with her at this parade..thank-you for posting this .

[@ctran0393]

Oh my good-golly GOD, Parade of Dreams is by far, the BEST parade that Disneyland would ever feature. I only hope that someday this OUTSTANDING parade would FINALLY make a comeback to the park not only because of the sheer variety of characters, but also that it has a special something that sets it apart from the other parades from today: a sense of Walt Disney's very own personal touch. Somehow, when I watch this, it's like he's really there in the parade himself.

[@Avenge911]

worked that parade for 2 years needless to say it never got old.... lol miss those days.

[@Big_Poppa_Bear]

I love the last part when Donald Duck was waving to everyone. So so beautiful.

[@Henderson754]

This is the best tribute to Parade of Dreams I've ever seen. From the 50th. in 2005 all the way up to the last of POD, I think I've seen the parade many times(maybe 75) Long live Parade of Dreams. Its just the best of Disney. Especially, Alice's parade stop. they really put on a good show.

[@TjSamson]

Can't wait for the new Night Parade for Disneyland 60th Anniversary!!!!!

[@tatecaswell5689]

Tj Samson haha did you end up liking it? Are you happy it's coming to DCA?

[@BRiiandM301]

I was there for the 50th anniversary that year, Parade of Dreams was amazing.

[@nickcgus]

I love this parade, there was something truly magical here, it was the most incredible since the Electrical Parade. No parade since has matched the magic of this one. The Soundsational is missing something, but this had it all!! It still brings tears to my eyes to watch it, something I haven't seen since 07 or 08, it reminds me of my childhood at the park. PLEASE PLEASE DISNEY bring us back this piece of magic!!!

[@almandot]

There were 4 floats they axed in the design process including Aladdin. The budget was used for block party bash which debuted on the same day . I think it was all budget well spent.

[@Jayytasmic]

I MISS THIS SO MUCH!!!!!!

[@ryangomez2093]

SAME HERE!!!!!!!!!

[@davidashton1279]

I love this parade it’s much better than the other parades

[@alfredgoovermon]

I feel so honored to have seen this parade probably over a dozen times. Some of the best memories of my life!!

[@FashionFunPJ]

The Lion King Celebration was the BEST parade ever at Disneyland but Parade Of Dreams..is a very very close second...I was lucky enough to be a part of both of them

[@almandot]

Shoutout to everyone posting this on Facebook for the 10th anniversary! Can't wait to Paint the Night!

[@dannyphatom45]

I put this on for my 2 nieces and they stood by me for 30 mins watching this smiling thanks

[@tatecaswell5689]

Watching this in 2017

[@pingvinererkule]

Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, Pinocchio and The Lion King are my absolute favorites, and they're all done amazingly well! I wanna see this parade live!

[@shortie778]

Mine too!Well except for Pinocchio. And of course Ursula always gives me the creeps.

[@mmpmanuelmendez1994]

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGG *^* This parade is really fantastic. Is impresionant. The floats and choreography is very very nice.

[@geertrui907]

Woow ! This is the most beautifull parade of disney I've ever seen. I live in belgium so I go to Disneyland Paris France. The costumes, the details, the musique. Everything! Is so magical. I wish the parades where always like that. I really hate the new parade of Disneyland Paris ' Magic everywhere'. Is too short, only one song that plays all the time. I expected that the new parade for the 20th anniversary would be like this. But I was wrong. PLEASE DISNEY, GIVE US BACK THE GOOD PARADES!

[@tehaamarupito753]

I remember 2006 i was here !! Was fantastic ...!

[@ivanmoomoo]

wow props to you for such a good edited and shot video. this is literally the best customer (if you are one haha) taken video i've ever seen. this is even better than the videos from professionals honestly. i searched up this parade since it's already been almost a decade since it debut and it's no longer available. thank you for bringing back so many memories of my childhood. this is my favorite parade out of all disney park parades. not only was it so nostalgic, i also found out so many things from this vid that i've never noticed when i watched it 5 times. like ariel's shell shooting up and the cards and the lion king creature that does acrobatics. probably because the last float always stops where i am for the performance part haha. but yea, thank you for this awesome video

[@tatecaswell5689]

Ivan Kao do you remember typing this haha 2 years later? Also this is my favorite parade that they ever created.

[@OKate2012]
