    I find myself wondering what my kids would choose. I remember being so upset when SpectroMagic replaced MSEP. It took me years to forgive Disney for that one. Just kidding, but it really is the only nighttime parade my kids know besides for the music. Cant wait for them to see the new MSEP and how they react to the new images to go along with music they have known their entire lives.

    Please feel free to comment about your favorite parade too.

    Where do you like to view them?

    We like the wooden tables and chairs across from the castle and beside the bridge into Liberty Square.

    I have a soft spot for SpectroMagic because it was the first MK parade we saw as a family. I love it!

    I loved the old Main Street ELP and even saw it in Disneyland years ago. And Spectromagic is wonderful!

    But after seeing the new parade it is now my favorite!

    I voted for the original but it's strictly for nostalgic reasons. It's the first one I ever saw so it holds a special place in my heart. But I LOVE the new Tinkerbell float. I enjoy all of them.

    My only recent memory is of Spectromagic. I was too young to remember the Original MSEP maybe b/c my parents were'nt into watching it. Haven't seen the new MSEP yet.

    I always thought MSEP was cool, BUT when I saw Spectromagic, it became my favorite. I wish it would've been there when I was there last. Easily my favorite parade.

    Cool

    Spectromagic is my favorite, my DW's as well.
    Last fall we were able to experience the current MSEP, and speaking just for me it paled in comparison to Spectro. This is most likely due to Spectro being my first night time parade and it left a lasting impression.

    Cool MK Parade Poll

    My favorite was the "Original".
    I usually prefer the original on most.
    We usually view the night time parades from the walkway between Main Street Hub on the Liberty Square side, close enough to grab a popcorn and drink from the wagon before enjoying the parade.
    The only exception would be the fireworks, because they seem to me getting better and better. Plus we wouldn't be seeing them displayed behind the Castle like we enjoyed from the the Wonderful World Of Disney shows!
    Remember....they used to be fired from the island in front of Magic Kingdom over Seven Seas Lagoon. Everyone flocked to the front gate before boarding the boats to go back to their resorts or TTC before leaving the Magic Kingdom.

    I really love the Parade that I'm watching at the time. We'll be watching them all in 66 days!

    I'm suprised the Original MSEP isn't in the lead! Spectro Magic is just weird with those short creepy white clown people, lol. Maybe it's just me but they creeped me out as a kid!
