Disney on Parade

[1] It debuted on rehearsal days throughout June 2005, before the grand opening of Hong Kong Disneyland on September 12.

The parade was also the genesis for an epiphany of then-CEO Bob Iger which led to the $7.4 billion acquisition of Pixar Animation Studios in 2006.

Iger's epiphany was that many of the characters in the parade were from Disney films that were made prior to the mid-90's.

The parade begins in Fantasyland, near the entrance of Storybook Theatre, and ends on Main Street, U.S.A., near the Disneyland City Hall.

Steve Davison, the creator of Disney's World of Color in Disney California Adventure, mentioned at the time that he was working on a parade for Hong Kong Disneyland's 5th anniversary.
