It seems as if the Festival of Fantasy Parade at Magic Kingdom Park is starting to get a reputation as the hottest attraction in the Resort! We’ve seen several Guests post various videos on social media, capturing moments related to the scorching heat.
Perhaps it is because the Festival of Fantasy Parade’s performances occur smack-dab in the middle of the day when temperatures are the hottest. The kicks off daily in this in Frontierland near and runs through , in front of , and down , U.S.A. With showtimes at 12:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m., it’s no wonder we are seeing all these amusing scenarios.
A few weeks ago, we shared a story of a Disney Cast Member dancing through the crowd before the Festival of Fantasy Parade started, in an effort to energize Guests weary of the sweltering weather. In a new video that was shared yesterday by @monique.lopez96 on TikTok, another humorous, heat-related incident was captured.
As the video begins, the Festival of Fantasy Parade is already in full swing at this Disney Park when a Cast Member from the cavalcade stops in front of a lady holding a fan. He spreads his arms out, motioning for the Guest to fan him down and cool him off a bit!
@monique.lopez0 It was a hot one today! Helping the @disneyparks characters cool off a bit! #magickingdom #foryou #waltdisneyworld #festivaloffantasy #mickeymouse
With a big smile on his face, seemingly unphased by the heat, the Cast Member stays in character and waves before moving on in the parade. After this, Grumpy from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) follows his lead and stops in front of the Guest for his turn to cool off.
The Guest fans him off before he motions for two other dwarfs to come over and get their chance to cool down. The video concludes with the Mad Hatter paying her a visit.
Dressed in several different layers, with a heavy-looking jacket and large hat, the kooky character looks relieved to get a little air blown in his direction. Hats off to the Cast Members that persevere through challenging temperatures during summers in Florida.
Disney’s official website describes the as follows:
Be a part of this grand gala, with spectacular, state-of-the-art floats starring some of your favorite Disney from Tangled, and The . It’s a festival of fun for everyone!
Their dedication ensures that every Disney Guest gets to experience the magic of the Parks on their trip to Walt Disney World. Stay cool, Disney Cast Members; we appreciate you!
