sorry Steve but they're right!
TOD was definately all over when we were on honeymoon in May.

Hugs on their way to you

You'll have to find a new favourite now!

Sorry Steve for bing the bearer of such news and from Screamscape are saying that the replacement parade at Epcot won't be ready until 2007 to tie in with the park's 25th Anniversary.

Such a shame ! I was hoping to see that parade once more, it had a very special meaning to me because of the emotions that it created, and the music (I can hear it now in my head) was oh so wonderful.
I'm just glad that I've got it all on Camcorder tape - at least I'll have the memory. It's going to be hard to find something that's going to live up to those standards, . . . . but it will be fun trying . . . !

I'll have to stop telling people to go and see it now won't I, but I think I'll leave my signature at the bottom in tact, as a memorial to the best parade that I've ever seen.

I'm OK now, I'll move on !

Steve,

Sorry to hear about TOD, I loved that parade too, especially the music. I bought the CD a couple of years ago and listen to it often, always brings a smile to my face.

so is there no parade in epcot now?

[Stu]

Currently there is no parade in Epcot.

To get guests into World Showcase (WS), Epcot management have been forcing the park’s guests into WS by closing most of Future World by 6pm as attendance of WS has been low since the demise of the parade. This seems to not have worked and a lot of guests have been vacating the park at 6pm instead of heading for WS.
There has apparently been talk of producing another parade to entice guests into WS, but nothing concrete has been announced.

The Latest rumour is that there will be NO Parade at Epcot until at least 2007 when Epcot celebrates it's 25th anniversary.

I was there for the final parade in March of this year. Although I had seen it numerous times and to be honest didn't even watch it much anymore when I heard that music for the last time it was very sad. Carolyn
