- The Little Mermaid – Ariel and friends sit atop a seashell music box.
- Peter Pan – Straight from Never Land come Peter Pan and Wendy, soaring high on the Jolly Roger.

My daughter has a 2:30 appointment (30 min crown package) at MK. If we get out of the castle at 3pm, can we still catch the parade as it comes in front of the castle? How long does it take for the parade to reach the castle and will it be too congested in that area at that time? I could have my husband and son save seats while she is at the appointment. I’m not sure how early people line up for parades.
This is fantastic! When will touring plans be updated so that I can add it to my schedule? I am actually going on the 9th.
Do we have any idea if they are going to have fastpass+ for this? I looked and its not an option at this time.
Thanks!
You can add it to a personalized touring plan now. We are currently assuming a 3:00 pm start time, but Disney has not announced times for any specific dates yet, so check back (http://touringplans.com/magic-kingdom/showtimes, re-optimize your touring plan, or see a Times Guide) closer to your touring date.
I have not seen an announcement about whether this parade will be a FastPass+ option, so that’s anybody’s guess for now.
Darn it! We will miss it by one day. We fly out March 9. I was really looking forward to this parade!
