Electrical parade....when will it come back?

[dudleydog]

I assume this parade is not a daily/weekly event. When does it return??

Unofficially, Disney's Electrical Parade (DEP) is expected to return on Friday, June 12, 2009.

A big announcement from Disney is expected on April 24. On that date the official return date of the DEP should be announced.

Right now the DEP is apparently getting a refurb to add a Tinker Bell float and update the soundtrack, etc., so the DEP probably won't be shown this spring.

Here’s what the following link says:

Disney’s California Adventure Park

Disney’s Electrical Parade will have its final run on Sunday, Jan. 4 [2009] at Disney’s California Adventure® Park and will not return until June 12 [2009] for the summer season.

Based on calendars from previous years, here is some general information about the DEP in DCA:

Jan.: Shown nightly during Christmas/New Year's (first week of Jan.)
Feb.: Not shown
Spring Break: Shown nightly (two weeks)
March: Shown Fri./Sat./Sun.
April: Shown Fri./Sat./Sun.
May & early-June: Shown Fri./Sat./Sun.

The above information is generally correct, but be sure to double-check the Electrical Parade dates at the official calendar:

I know that they are starting auditions soon for the parade. DNephew is in CELEBRATE! and will be trying out for DEP as well.
