A fabulous way to spend an evening in DCA. Still has the classic charm it once offered on Main Street U.S.A. I recommend this to everyone!

I thoroughl enjoyed this parade, it brought back some great memories! I would prefer it in Disneyland though, as the "Main Street Electrical Parade"

Awsome Paradade! Now if only we could get our 3 floats back that we sent to Paris than the parade would be more complete. Did I forget to mention this parade kicks booty all over SpectroMagic??

This is a fun parade, and my dad loves it, but I could do without seeing it every trip! The music is fun however and I do enjoy it once it starts but I hate waiting for it. Not my first choice when visiting the park.

The very best parade that Disney has to offer. I am so thrilled that it is back.

I honestly can say as a cast member that my most vivid memories, whether before I worked at the park or after, have been of this parade. I ti s true that it is shorter, as some of hte floats either had some electrical problems and weren't safe or they were falling apart. But it still invokes many watershed memories for many people, and I think that's really all that matters.

This parade is the best parade I have ever seen at Disneyland. It's very magical.

The Electrical Parade, Splash, and Pirates are my three favorite things at Disney. I live on Bourbon Street in New Orleans (Walt Disney adored New Orleans), and I just have to say that the Electrical Parade is better than any Mardi Gras parade, or any other parade---it is the absolute best parade on earth! Without a doubt, the Parade belongs in Disneyland, but it's better where it is than nowhere at all. Everyone was just sick when Disney said they were going to retire it a few years ago; I watched the "last parade" live on local tv and cried, and diligently bought the video and the lightbulb, and no, I do not feel the least bit ripped off that it's back! Even if it's in California Adventure, I'll take it. A couple of years ago I was at WDW and was surprised to find that the Parade was THERE---I don't believe I have ever been so pleasantly surprised by anything in my whole life. The parade needs to be preserved at all cost, and the missing pieces need to be refurbished and put back where they belong. Those mine carts with the glowing jewels are absolutely crucial, as are the elephant, and the two guys with the shell game, and every other glorious piece of it. Long live the Disneyland's Main Street Electrical Parade!!!

I love the parade but they took out too much of it. what happened to the mine for snow white or the pinnochios pleasure island? they were the best part but its seems to be missing. put it all back together and put it where it belongs on main street.

I felt cheated... Did it seem shorter? There was very little "magic" in the air. It should be back in Disneyland.

This is a GREAT parade!!!! It just needs to go back to Disneyland Park.

It's nice to see the Electrical Parade back in California. But I can't help but remember it being longer. Regardless, it sparks nostalgic memories in myself as well as exciting the next generation of "Disney kids." I forgot how cute Dumbo could be. It's a great complement to the day parade; celebrating the latest and greatest with a California classic.
