YouTube Video Descriptionโ
The "Share a Dream Come True Parade" was a daily feature at Magic Kingdom from 2001 to 2014, celebrating Disney's 100 Years of Magic. Narrated by Julie Andrews, the parade honored Walt Disney's legacy with unique snow globe-style floats and show stops that included special effects and character performances. Initially, the parade featured show stops where the globes would simulate snow with confetti, but these were discontinued in 2004. In 2006, the parade was rebranded as the "Disney Dreams Come True Parade," which removed the snow globes and introduced new floats and costumes, including the Year of a Million Dreams outfits for the Fab Five characters. The parade underwent another transformation in 2009, becoming the "Celebrate a Dream Come True Parade," which incorporated the "What Will You Celebrate?" theme, added more characters, and reintroduced show stops briefly. The parade featured various themed float units: Title Float: Initially featured Walt Disney animating Mickey Mouse, later replaced by an opening banner and grand marshal car. It Was All Started by a Mouse: Highlighted Mickey Mouse in different roles, later updated to include Minnie Mouse and other characters. Wish Upon a Star: Featured Pinocchio, Snow White, and their respective characters, with some changes over time. A Hundred Thousand Dreams to See: Focused on Disneyโs Adventures in Flight, featuring characters like Winnie the Pooh, Aladdin, and Mary Poppins. Face Your Darkest Fears: Showcased Disney villains, with various updates to characters and themes. As Long as There is Imagination Left in the World: Included Peter Pan and a rotating carousel of Disney characters. A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes/Happily Ever After: Featured princesses and was temporarily removed after a fatal accident but later reintroduced with changes. Once Upon a Dream/A Kingdom of Dreams/Celebrate Today: The castle float evolved over time, featuring different character arrangements and themes. The parade music, composed by Gavin Greenaway and recorded by members of the London Symphony Orchestra and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, included the main theme "Fantasy" and the "Share a Dream Come True" theme. The audio was controlled via RF signals from Cinderella Castle.
