Photos/Video: Disneyland Marks 250 Years of America with Celebratory Cavalcade on July 4th

An American original itself, Disneyland marked the United States' 250th birthday today with a special patriotic cavalcade throughout the park.

Some of your favorite Disney pals hit the streets of Disneyland to the sounds of James Browns' "Living in America" to celebrate 250 years of the United States. Led by Goofy, Pluto, Chip and Dale, Mickey and Minnie rode in on a patriotically decked out float, also carrying some dancers and a host for the cavalcade – who got fans excited for the proceedings.

They were followed by even more characters, like the Mad Hatter, Moana, Pocahontas, and more!
