Disney's virtual parade is the perfect way to add a touch of magic to your day

Disney 's parades are a classic experience at any of the parks.

Mickey Mouse and his friends pull out all the stops for the all-dancing, all-singing extravaganzas, while donning eye-catching ensembles and riding impressive floats.

However, with the parks currently closed during the coronavirus pandemic and people unable to travel on their dream holidays, it's unlikely that you'll be able to experience a real-life one for a while.

Luckily, Disney has decided to bring the magic to you, with a virtual viewing of its brand new parade Magic Happens, which only launched in February 2020!

The eight-minute video offers views of the incredible floats and dance performances - and of course, plenty of character appearances including Mickey, Aladdin, Moana, Princess Tiana, Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty.

So, don your Mickey ears, grab some snacks, and let yourself be transported to the magic in the video below...

The video was shared by the Disney Parks Blog, and at the time of writing it's already garnered over 300,000 views.

The Magic Happens parade is a brand new offering for Disney, who launched it at the Disneyland Park in Walt Disney World earlier this year.

It features floats celebrating iconic films such as Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty, as well as new hits such as Frozen 2 and Moana, as well as Disney and Pixar’s Coco.

The best part is, the virtual parade isn't the only way you can experience some of the Disney magic from the comfort of your sofa.

In fact, you can check out some brilliant virtual Disney rides shared by fans, which leave you feeling like you're on the rollercoasters and attractions yourself, whether in Walt Disney World or Disneyland Paris.

Of course we're not saying it's like the real thing but it's the perfect way to get a bit of escapism from all of the doom and gloom, not to mention it's ideal if you want to plan a dream holiday for the days when you can travel again.
