Which parade is a must see?

[sleeping beauty 2]

We have been several years and have only seen the Tapestry of Nations Parade at Epcot (no longer), and the MNSSHP Boo Parade. We are going in Sept/Oct again this year and will see the MNSSHP again, but want to take DS - 9, DD - 7, and DS - 2 to another parade. Which parade is best?

I like SpectroMagic. You get to see the characters and it is neat to see all the floats all light up.

Agree with above post also you try and see the Electrical water parade which is viewablefrom beach at WL,Poly,GF,FW CR

Of the regular parades, SpectroMagic. The others are ok, but by no means must-sees if you are short on time.

SPECTROMAGIC is a must see ... although I enjoy ALL the parades (especially Tapestry of Dreams/Nations ... I miss it A LOT like many of us here!)

Disney parades give me that "warm and fuzzy" feeling!!!

SPECTROMAGIC GETS MY VOTE, TOO! STAKE OUT YOUR VIEWING SPOT EARLY!!

I think Spectro is nice but I like Mickey's Jammin Jungle Parade the best. The music is fun and the actors actually look like they enjoy the parade. The characters seem to have more fun at this parade too.

I haven't seen MJJP but I heard that the guest interaction there is pretty good. We plan on seeing it on our upcoming trip. Also I hear the new parade coming to MGM is suppose to have great guest interaction also. I don't remember the name of it something about Party?

I'd agree with Mickey's Jammin' Jungle parade. It's so upbeat! If you try to see it in Africa, not only do there seem to be fewer people so that you get closer (and I've had several characters come over to shake my hand), you get to see it twice, since it both starts and ends there. I love that parade!

Spectro Magic is a definite must SEE!! Its awesome!!

You've got to see Spectromagic. Definitely stake yourselves a spot out early though. If you're not there during a super busy time an hour is enough if you're there when it is busy, I'd sit down a little earlier.

Well, you can see Spectro is a good one! I LOVE Mickey's Jammin' Junglel Parade.... it's just so much fun! The music is wonderful! It's the only parade I "got in line with" at the end and just kept on going!!

Jungle Jammin in AK was the first parade we saw at the end of our first day at WDW and it set the mood for the whole week - upbeat, lively, fun! We sat across the street from the bird show where there is a little seating area, we dragged some chairs out to curbside, bought Mickey bars (right across from us) and had a nice leafy green background for pics! No crowds, no background noise, just happy, relaxed family groups watching the parade and enjoying the parade music. This was the first WDW parade and we were amazed at the smiles, eye contact and audience interaction from the parade characters. It's a must-see!

We saw all the parades at Disney and the afternoon MK is the most miss-able. Spectromagic is great too but be very early, an hour at least, to get a curbside position (we were on the Main St bridge).

Spectromagic is really great. We also loved Stars and Motor Cars...

Thanks for all the great feedback. We will definately see Spectromagic. Have seen the electric water parade, which is a family favorite. May try the AK parade based on the great reviews. We are traveling in Sept/Oct do you still have stake out a spot so early for Spectromagic?

WE have diner reservations at 5:45 at LTT on the night of an 8pm parade, is the LTT a good location to watch parade?

Mickey's Jammin Jungle Parade at Animal Kingdom is the best!!
