Electrical Parade end of August/beginning of September.

[GrumpyMom25]

We usually travel to Disney World earlier in the summer. I'm surprised to see that the Electrical Parade is only listed for August 29th and September 3rd during our weeks stay. Is this normal for this time of year or is it possible that it may happen on other evening during the week? I know that the evening of the 2nd is the Halloween Party so we'll be seeing the Halloween Parade that night. I would hate to miss the Electrical Parade since it's ending in October.

I noticed that too ( trip in Mid Sept). I marked those dates when it is there and hopefully we will be in the parks to see it once.

I just checked and it shows MSEP at 9 PM on both 8/27 and 8/28, if you're there that early.

I actually asked Disney about this- if there was a schedule related to the parade. There was no answer but vague pleasantries, and then when I asked why it wasn't showing some nights that weren't MNSSHP nights I got, "I'm sorry I can't move the parade for you" which was hilarious and unnecessary. Long story short, I have compiled a list of dates it is showing until it stops. This is accurate as of today, but I understand that Disney changes things unexpectedly. This isn't exactly an answer to your question, but as no one is really answering, hopefully this helps you and some others! We unfortunately are visiting on a non-parade night (8/30), but most people tend to stay longer so they should be able to get it in.

Thank you so much for compiling this list! I'm sure it will definitely be helpful to people. Our MK day is 9/6 and I was disappointed when I saw online that MSEP won't be that night. Our last Disney day is 9/10 and I saw that there is a 10 PM and 12 AM parade. Does anyone know how the 12 AM parade time works when the park is supposed to close at 12 AM also? I checked the park hours and there aren't any EMH scheduled so not sure how the park is going to close the same time the parade is starting.
