MK parade start location

Here is my question. How do I find out where the 3pm parade starts from?
Here is my concern: I have 3:30 res at Crystal Palace. I'm not planning on getting to the MK till about 3pm - 2:30 the latest. If the parade starts at Main St I have a problem. If the parade starts at frontierland I may not have a problem navigating the crowds to get to the restaurant.

Any suggestions?

Travel through the INSIDE of the Main Street shops

It starts right by the Barber Shop on Main Street. If you get there at about 2:45/50 you can still walk across the street there and walk through the shops (Mainstreet Emporium) like the previous posters commented (down the left hand side of the street) and that will dump you out at the Baseball restaurant (sorry can't remember the name). Hang a left there and and you'll see CP straight ahead.


Good Luck!

When did they start running the afternoon parade in the same direction as SpectroMagic? I know they do that now, but I remember that for the longest time, they started the 3 pm parade in Frontierland and followed the same route in reverse.

it was shortly after the new parade debuted. something to do with problems the floats were having navigating the course. earlier this year.
