This parade is themed to seven stories of Christmas that the Disney Characters
spend with their dear ones. This year Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse and Pluto will
appear in new costumes.
Heading the parade is the Story 1 float with Donald Duck dressed up as Santa
Claus. He is joined on the colorfully decorated boat-shaped float by Daisy Duck, his
nephews and his uncle Scrooge as they enjoy a Christmas at home. Following in
succession and showing how the Disney Characters enjoy Christmas are the Story 2 float
with Woody and Buzz Lightyear, the Story 3 with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and
the Story 4 float with Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse and their close friends. The Story 5
float shows Stitch and his friends, followed by the Story 6 float with Belle and the Beast.
The last float shows a world of snow and ice with Anna, Elsa and Olaf from the Disney
film Frozen.
The parade stops in three locations for a Christmas party. Bells chime loudly as
Christmas music plays and the Disney Characters together with the Guests make the party
even livelier. In the finale, it begins to snow as the Guests and the Disney Characters
celebrate a heartwarming Christmas together.
