Disney’s “Main Street Electrical Parade” will light up the streets of Magic Kingdom, headlining a season of after-dark excitement coming to Walt Disney World Resort in summer 2010. Beginning June 6 and continuing through Aug. 14, “Summer Nightastic!” will light up the night with shimmering, shining Disney magic in Walt Disney World theme parks.

Here’s a look at what’s in store: Disney’s “Main Street Electrical Parade” returns with its joyous sights and sounds. The parade will feature new floats and characters appearing for the first time at the Magic Kingdom. Returning from Disneyland Resort and marking its first appearance in Florida since 2001, the cherished parade will be led by Tinker Bell waving from the basket of a magical balloon aboard a new float. Pinocchio and Snow White also join the fun this summer aboard bright new floats. Disney’s “Main Street Electrical Parade” is set for its summer-long nighttime premiere June 6 at Magic Kingdom. “Summer Nightastic!” also means music! Guests wanting to “trip the light fantastic” to sizzling summer sounds will find high energy DJ music at “Rock N’ Glow Dance Party” in the courtyard of Rock ‘n’ Roller CoasterStarring Aerosmith at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. At Epcot, the Sounds Like Summer Concert Series returns (June 12-July 31) with bands playing musical tributes to artists who filled summers gone by with musical magic. What could be more summery than fireworks on a star-studded night? Magic Kingdom will treat guests to “Summer Nightastic Fireworks Spectacular,” filling the night sky with vivid colors and brilliant visual effects while whimsical music fills the air.
