Walt Disney World Easter Parade 2025. Get ready for some springtime magic! Disney World is hopping with Easter fun at the Magic Kingdom.
What’s happening:
- Bunny Meet-and-Greet: Leading up to Easter, Mr. and Mrs. Easter Bunny will greet guests at the Liberty Square Gazebo. This is perfect for a photo op!
- Special Easter Parade: On Easter Weekend – April 19th and 20th, 2025 – a special Easter Parade will make its way down Main Street U.S.A.
Timing is everything:
- The Easter Parade steps off just before the popular Festival of Fantasy Parade, which starts at 3:00 PM EST.
- Pro tip: Stake out a spot along the parade route 45 to 60 minutes early to snag a good view of the festive procession.
What to expect in the parade:
- Last year’s parade kicked off with Cast Members carrying “Happy Easter from the Magic Kingdom” banners.
- Fan favorites like the Hippos and Ostriches from Fantasia spread confetti as they go.
- Dancers will be sporting their Easter best, a departure from previous years’ Southern Antebellum attire.
- Keep an eye out for Mr. and Mrs. Easter Bunny on a special float – a spot usually reserved for Mickey and Minnie!
- The White Rabbit, dancing Flowers, and Butterflies will also be part of the springtime celebration.
- The parade concludes with Clara Cluck and her Chicken dancers on her hen house float.
Why it matters: The Disney World Easter Parade is a rare treat, happening only twice a year. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to experience the magic!
