A wild ride

Clarabelle’s Harvest Festival and Farm Madness

The cavalcade celebrating the harvest season opens with Daisy surrounded by a few dancers. All are dressed in costumes of brightly colored autumn leaves. Just behind them, the first float in the procession, La Fête des récoltes, moves forward with Donald on board, perched on a cart well-stocked with pumpkins and sheaves of wheat. At the back, Balthazar Scrooge twirls a precious dollar pumpkin. Finally, The Three Little Pigs round off this walking unit.

Clarabelle and Horace introduce the next unit of La Ferme en Folie. The second float, topped by an old haunted building, welcomes Winnie, Coco Lapin, Eeyore, Tigger and Piglet. Owls, crows, black cats and spiders seem to have taken up residence on board. Pumpkins, mushrooms, fallen leaves, lanterns and haystacks complete the decor. On the back of the float and on the ground, roots and mushroom dancers come to life to conclude this act.

Interlude

As the heart of the festivities approaches, the various units split up and spread out around Central Plaza in anticipation of the wild party that is about to unfold. As the Phantom welcomes all the “poor mortals” together, all the characters and dancers in the cavalcade take their places on the stages and around the floats. What follows is a frenzied show punctuated by a host of pyrotechnic effects to amaze young and old alike. This festive moment in the heart of Disneyland Park comes to a close as the cavalcade continues along the parade route.
