The parade time you can see here https://wdpromedia.disney.go.com/media/wdpro-dlp-assets/prod/en-gb/system/images/show-and-parades.pdf
It's usually up the date the program starts.

The parks hours you can see here: http://www.dlpguide.com/calendar/monthly-park-hours/
4 trips to DLP, 3 to WDW, 1 to Disneyland California

Disney Magic On Parade will be on at 17:30 and Disney Dreams at closing time of the park.

So much useful info on here!

We are going in the w/c 30th March, do you think the same timings would apply then? E.g parade at 5:30, Dreams at sometime after 9pm?

If so it seems best to book dinner in park for perhaps 6:30pm? I am aiming to book in advance (2 months prior to arrival) to ensure we can eat where we want.

Thanks

Parade is at 17:30.
Dreams however is not after 21:00, it's at closing time of the park.
Meaning, if the park closes at 19:00, Dreams is at 19:00.
Opening hours for March and further aren't known yet, so you don't know yet at what time Dreams will be on.

Thanks, I looked at the last week of March from this year and saw the closing times in that week were 21:30 or later - I guess the pattern is roughly the same each year?

The key thing though is that there should be time to eat between the parade and the show.

Thanks
