Is Spectromagic and the MVMCP parade the same?

[disneysnowflake]

I'm trying to finish up my itineraries.
There are only 2 nights during our trip that Spectromagic is showing.
I was planning to leave AK one day and head to MK to catch Spectromagic.
I will be going to MVMCP.

I'm wondering if Spectromagic is different from the MVMCP parade.

I'm debating on going to MK for Spectro. or going to WS in Epcot.

Oh yes! Completely different. I would suggest trying to see both if you can. Spectro is a beautiful night time parade with all the characters and floats lit up with lights. MVMCP is a Christmas parade, complete with Santa Goofy and Santa Clause!

Good Luck! Try to fit them both in, you won't be disappointed!

Nope. Two totally different parades. They're nothing alike at all.

Both parades are a must see IMHO.

The coolest thing in the VMCP is the gingerbread bakery float with chip & dale, take a deep breathe when it goes by. If you love Christmas its a must see !


Spectro is the most flavorful "G- rated" visual candy I have expericened.

Great!! Thanks so much! We'll definately be doing both.
I am just so excited now!

It is wonderful.

The MVMCP/Christmas parade is also so uniquely wonderful, gives you chills, maybe a tear. It is great. I love them both.
