Finally, a new parade is coming to DLP for its 25th anniversary! It's been confirmed by the designers themselves: https://www.facebook.com/KevinandJody/posts/941386252575902

Great news!
Thanks, msRavenswood!
I'm sure you are gonna see it in person!

Excellent although part of me wonders if there's a real need to replace the current one. Its only done, what 5 years? They got 10+ out of 'Dancin' A Catchy Rhythm'.

It's a revamp of the Once Upon A Dream Parade so it's running for about 10 years.
Which is longer than The Wonderful World of Disney Parade.
And with it now being a small parade with barely any floats, and no nighttime parade anymore, and also no parades at the Studios anymore, Disneyland Paris is in desperate need of a new parade.

Yay. Although something big like a new parade was to be expected for the 25th.

10 years for that one?! Wow where's that time gone?

Now I think about it, wasn't that the one for the 15th celebrations?

This is fantastic news and long overdue DLP desperately needs a new parade and the 25th anniversary seems the perfect time to launch it.
It would also be nice to see a parade reinstated at WDS park too.
2017 is closer than you think!

That's great news! I hope we will get completely new floats so they can use the chassis of the current floats for some extra Halloween/Christmas floats, or maybe use them for a new parade in the Studios!

[DisneyGagaChick]

Yaaas! 

I don't know why the don't use the old parade from WDW, DL etc? Just use the same floats with different theming? 

[msRavenswood]

If you check the 'Happiness is here' parade from Tokyo you will see how awesome the floats are. I hope the designers offer DLP the same quality!

I would like to see similar float to those currently used at WDW. How cool would a fire breathing dragon be?

Well this is exciting news, but the float in that picture is a bit uninspiring and certainly not good enough for DLP.

When the current parade started as the 'Parade des reves' (hope my French grammar is right there) for the 15th we all thought it was the best thing going. But it looks a bit old now and something new will be most welcome.

As far as a night parade goes I think it is too much to coordinate it with Dreams in the park (and perhaps not worth doing as we have something incredible at park closing time already), but a night parade would be just what WDS needs to truly grab that elusive 'full day park' description.

Oh yes!!! That would be fantastic!

Search on YouTube for 'Happiness is here parade Tokyo'. The floats are certainly of a different philosophy compared to what we're used to seeing at DLP but this isn't necessarily bad. They have a certain dreamy flair, which I personally love!

[andrewuk]

Yes, I see what you mean. I like how they are more open so that you don't get too much of the view blocked off by the middle of the float being in the way. (Watching that also reminds me how lucky we are with our park, much more beautiful than TDL!)
