Hollywood Holly-Day Parade at Disney MGM Studios: Extinct Disney Parks Tribute

Extinct Disney Parks Tribute

Toy Story Christmas Parade Float Hollywood Holly-Day Parade Walt Disney World

One of the most popular parades in the history of Disney's Hollywood Studios was the Disney Stars and Motor Cars Parade. This daily daytime parade featured a series of cars themed based on Disney, Pixar, Muppets, and Star Wars characters carrying popular characters through the park. Each winter, this parade would transform for the holiday season into the Hollywood Holly-day Parade.

This seasonal version of the parade would see all of the normal floats from the parade, decorated with special holiday and Christmas decorations.

Each float would get its own special decorations which were designed to fit in with the theme of the float. For instance, Miss Piggy would appear alongside a lot of Christmas presents while riding in the Muppets car with Kermit.
