What is the Water Parade called?

I know I saw it posted here, you have to go to the Polynesian resort I believe to see it. Can anyone tell me the name and any info about it would be wonderful!

Thanks

You can see it from any resort on Seven Seas Lagoon, I believe. We saw it at 9:35pm from WL. It's the "Electric Water Pageant". Not very exciting actually, IMHO, after you've seen fireworks and Illuminations and Fantasmic.

Poster is incorrect. This is the best show that doesn't cost you one red cent, that has been running since creation.. On a non park night or when a park closes early, hop on over to Bay Lake or Seven Seas Lagoon, grab a night cap and enjoys the approx. 20 show!! Never miss these on our trip, great viewing if you're in a monorail resort, WL or at FW.

Another point I would like to make is that this is one of the original "thrown together" attractions from the opening days of WDW. They felt that there were not enough attractions during the opening days of the resort, so they threw this thing together rather quickly. It surprised even the Disney staff that it became so popular right from the beginning. It still runs today after 34 years in pretty much it's same form, with a few changes.

Thanks I have never seen it and would also like my kids to see it, there is going to be a couple freebie nights so I thought it would be different to see this.

Also my 4 year old hates fireworks (however I make him sit through fantasmic)they still scare him so he might be actually thrilled by this.

One more question can this be seen from Polynesia?

Oh I love this! It's a Disney orginal! You can see it from several resorts.Check with the MK or resorts Guest Relations to see what time it's running during your stay.

The usual times it passes the resorts are:

Polynesian Resort -- 9 p.m.
Grand Floridian -- 9:15 p.m.
Wilderness Lodge -- 9:35 p.m.
Fort Wilderness -- 9:45 p.m.
Contemporary Resort -- 10:05 p.m.
Magic Kingdom -- 10:20 p.m. (only during extended MK park
hours)

Last Saturday night we got on the boat to WL from MK about 9:30 and we followed the pageant from the GF area all the way over to WL!

Are you referring to me? Well, I can't be incorrect about whether we liked it, and we did not, at least not enough to keep the kids up to see it. I'm allowed my opinion, right, even if it is a minority one?

Your right I wanted to hear all opinions good and bad. I don't want to waste time on something we may not like and also I am planning my sisters itinerary and need to know whether to advise her to see it as well. For example that place in Epcot don't remember what it's called (Imagination something) where you see inside the body, I wish someone would have told us not to go last time it was a total waste of an hour of time and the kids wouldn't leave cause they thought they were missing something, and we weren't. Definitely won't be doing that one again and recommended my sister not either. However I love the water coming out of the grounds, the kids wasted about an hour there and totally loved it, drenched but loved it!
