A MAGICAL EVENING OF SPARKLING LIGHTS WITH THE DISNEY PARKS BLOG #117

E Ticket To Tomorrowland had the great fortune to attend a Disney Parks Blog Main Street Electrical Parade event last week! With the usual Disney Flair, We were treated to a gift pack when we signed in, with a Disney Parks Blog T-shirt, Rice treat and glowing button, all with the MSEP logo on it. Then we were led into the park and taken to the Small World area, to the Mickey And The Magical Map Theater for fun Photo ops, one with the Big Cheese himself!

A wonderful original dessert buffet was available, with peanut butter and jelly éclairs, ladybug macrons, a cute little turtle pastry and a parfait. The tables were all decorated with fresh flowers and blinking lights. Simply Magical!

Then it was time for the panel. It was hosted by Her Royal Blogess, Erin Glover, and featured Robin Vossen: General Manager Of Disneyland Entertainment Operations, John Addis: Director Of Disneyland Creative Entertainment, and Bruce Healey: Principal Music Producer, Disneyland Creative Entertainment. They all answered some great Trivia questions! Did you know that the original idea for the MSEP came from the water Pageant Parade at Walt Disney World? There are over 600,000 lights on the parade floats, and that number changes constantly, because they are always adding strands and effects Daily? When asked about the number of lights, they did say that the girl in the commercial knows for sure...lol. The Synthetic voice that was added to the opening of the parade is that of Jack Wagner. THE voice of Disneyland. They were also kind enough to raffle off several framed sketches that when lit glow in the dark.

We finally made our way to grab a seat next to Small World for a viewing of the parade...with the popcorn and water provided!

It truly was a magical night! A huge thanks to Erin and the Disney Parks Blog for hosting a magically wonderful event. A super special thanks to my companions for the wonderful time I had.
