Disneyland's Magic Happens Parade 2024

This morning I got to watch Disneyland's Magic Happens Parade 2024 on Youtube and I can say that this Magic Happens Parade is the weakest of Disneyland's parades and I don't know why they chose to bring it back after the pandemic? Because when I watched the parade I can't figure out why they would choose to bring it back? For one thing the soundtrack and music is out of place and sounds like music you hear at a cheerleading competition or a Super Bowl party and goes on repeating itself with Moana and Coco and The Princess And The Frog songs and Return To Never Land songs added in a medley and to me it gets annoying after the first two floats and why Disneyland would use Todrick Hall to perform the theme song of Magic Happens is just odd and they could've used someone like Bette Midler or Jordin Sparks to perform the theme song. I also noticed that some of the characters interact with the audience like Kristoff Tinker Bell Peter Pan and Fairy Godmother but the other characters such as Maui and Moana just wave from their floats but the highlight of this parade is Pepita from Coco and it's amazing that she actually "flies" and looks real and I wonder how they did that? But in my eyes Magic Happens 2024 was a disappointment for me and Disneyland should've done a better parade than bringing back Magic Happens because Disneyland needs improvement in their parades

Funny, I think it is one of the better parades of the last years. I do really like the floats and the music.

We also really enjoy the Magic Happens parade. I find the music catchy and fun. We have not seen it since it returned from its holiday hiatus, but we did see it several times last year and always enjoy it a lot. It has had a very short run if you think about it because it opened 2 weeks before Covid hit and then did not come back for a long time post pandemic.

I will admit that I didn't love it when I first heard the soundtrack, but after seeing it in person, I liked it a lot more. The floats really are great! I ended up watching it twice on my last trip.

Nah. Magic Happens is amazing. I'm not even a parade person, but I LOVE that one.
