Over the weekend, Disneyland released a cool, professionally-shot video of the new Magic Happens parade with source audio soundtrack, to help bring a little Disney magic to all of us stuck at home while public life has largely ground to a halt in the wake of the COVID-19 causing Coronavirus outbreak. This was a great gesture and showcases the magic and energy of the parade, but one thing it doesn't do is capture the parade at night. You see, for the first week of the parade's run, before Daylight Saving Time began, the later procession actually occurred after the sun set, bringing a unique and evocative ambiance to the entire feel of the parade.
Here are some photos taken from The Hub, down Main Street, showing Magic Happens in its unique evening flair!
