Title: How long do the parades usually last?
Post by: Toddbinns on March 15, 2016, 02:24:35 PM
Hi,

Hoping someone can please quickly answer my question about how long the parades usually last?

I found a schedule of start times, but nothing about how long ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Magic on Parade lasts max 10 minutes.

Minnies Spring Train lasts about 5 minutes.

Goofy's Garden Party is about 15-20 minutes.

if you are including Dreams as a parade it lasts about 25 minutes

I would also add in between anything up to 40 minutes waiting time depending on how busy the park is and how good a view you want

To be precise, it takes around 10 minutes to pass a particular point. But if it starts at 5:30, it'll be completely clear of the parade route by 6, because it's slow-moving.

Hi, I'm new to all this and trying to plan our first ever trip in 10 days time. I was interested in this thread as I'm trying to guess appropriate times to book tables for meals. I didn't realise there were several parades....

Are they at 5.30 too? Any idea what time the fireworks normally start and us there anything going on between the karate and the fireworks? I'm guessing 6.30 might be a good time to eat, we don't want to leave it any later as our boys are 6&8 and can't wait that long! Any advice much appreciated.
