Apparently they have installed LED spotlights along the parade route! I would love to have Fanti back, the music, lights and stops were incredible! It would be a night-time spectacular to make WDS a full-day park for comparatively little cost.

That would be great, we never got to watch it the first time around :) Do you think the bulbs on the floats would all be LED based too? This would reduce the cost to run them significantly, and would mean having to replace them less often too...

It's a false rumour coming from an original source (ED92) that literally always posts false rumours.
The Fantillusion floats don't even exist anymore.
Some were transformed for the Halloween cavalcade and the others are destroyed.
Maybe we get a different nighttime parade, could be possible, though I highly doubt it.
But Fantillusion will never ever come back again.

I hope they bring in some sort of parade,  with stars and cars as it currently is studios is desperately in need of a parade. I was looking through a workbook for schools made a good few years back and it has pictures of cinema staff / people in period costime wandering the studios,   it made it so much more authentic.

Not all of them were destroyed according to ASGGBASK on DCP

I confirm that Jafar and Ursula were transformed Halloween cavalcade. 4 The chariots of Act 1 are intact, Char Hex and Jack Act 2 and 5 Tanks Act 3 are under the shed and have not been out since October 31, 2012.

Could they even run the full length Fantillusion in the park? From what I remember, the parade route isn't that long.

Some of the floats are definitely gone or converted so it won't be the whole thing if it happens. But the DCP wasn't that short so I think it can happen.

"Block Street Party Bash" in California and Florida was the best parade we've ever seen. Wish that could come to the Studios.

This would be amazing if this could happen! It would make the WDS one step nearer to being an all day park. I think it could fit the parade route as the Cinema Parade was a huge parade.

Obviously as it has already been said it would be a new short version of the parade as some of the floats have been destroyed or revamped and used in other parades.

Maybe it could be in the style of the new Paint The Night parade which launched in Tokyo Disneyland and is opening in Disneyland as their new night time parade soon. That new parade would fit in the Walt Disney Studios perfectly.

There a rumor that Disney California Adventure Maybe Get A New Day Time Pixar Parade For Disneyland 60th Anniversary Next Year. I Think Disney Should Send The Pixar Play Parade To The Walt Disney Studio Park Paris.

I think the rumour has more weight because most of the floats still seem to be in existence at DLP, so it is comparatively cheap to get Fanti going again.

Nah ED92 sprout any old nonsense they make up. Some of it sticks, the majority doesn't. The things that do are usually vague too "Halloween will see changes!" etc...

Theres only a few left but they don't form a parade. WDS are looking at a parade though - I think we're likely to see something more in line with "Paint the night" from Hong Kong https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taTcaWqMjY8

Maybe in cavalcade form.

I admit, I genuinely read this as FANTASMIC  :P
