Magic Kingdom Parade & Cavalcade Updates: What's Changing in March? (2026)

Get ready for some magical adjustments! Disney's Magic Kingdom is shaking up its parade and cavalcade schedule in March, and it's all about embracing the longer days and the excitement of spring break. But will these changes cast a spell on your plans?

First up, let's talk about the enchanting 'Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away'. Currently, this mesmerizing parade captivates guests at 7:45 p.m., with an extra performance at 10 p.m. on special occasions. But here's the twist: from March 8 onwards, it will enchant audiences at 8:15 p.m. every night, and on March 12-14, it will also cast its spell at 10:30 p.m. And get this—the parade's starting point varies, with some nights beginning in Town Square and others in Frontierland. Talk about keeping us on our toes!

Now, for the 'Festival of Fantasy Parade' fans. This vibrant spectacle currently marches at 3 p.m., but mark your calendars for March 15, when it returns to its twice-daily schedule, adding a noon performance. So, from then until at least April 4, you can catch the magic at 12 p.m. and 3 p.m. But remember, if rain decides to crash the party, the 'Rainy Day Cavalcade' might make an appearance instead.

And last but not least, the 'Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade' is switching things up. Say goodbye to morning shows and hello to evening fun! From March 15, it will parade at 5:10 p.m. and 6:25 p.m., at least until April 4. Both the daytime parade and this cavalcade start their journey in Frontierland and conclude in Town Square.

These changes are sure to impact many visitors' plans. Are you excited about the extended parade hours, or do you prefer the current schedule? Let's discuss in the comments! And don't forget to stay updated with all the Disney Parks magic by following WDW News Today on social media.
