Mickey’s Magical Friendship Faire

Tuesday, November 10: 9:15 a.m. and noon.

Wednesday, November 11: 10:10 a.m., 11:35 a.m., 12:45 p.m. and 4 p.m.

All times here are Orlando local time, EST. Aruba is one hour ahead: the Tuesday shows are at 10:15 a.m. and 1 p.m. Aruba; Wednesday’s are at 11:10 a.m., 12:35 p.m., 1:45 p.m. and 5 p.m. Aruba.

A Christmas parade before dark

Disney’s November 10 and 11 calendars both list Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade at 2 p.m. The daytime Christmas parade is a useful detail to plan around if you are visiting on either date.

BlogMickey reports that the entertainment changes coincide with the ABC holiday taping. The showtimes above were checked separately on Disney’s official show page; the parade and evening times below come from Disney’s day calendars.

The evening lineup remains on the calendar

On both dates, Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away is listed at 6:45 p.m. and 9 p.m., with Happily Ever After at 8 p.m. For Aruba, those are 7:45 p.m. and 10 p.m. for Starlight, and 9 p.m. for the fireworks.

Check My Disney Experience again on the day. Outdoor performances can change or be cancelled for weather. The castle photograph is an earlier archive view, not coverage of the November taping.

Updated November 2: Main Street performers

BlogMickey’s November 1 schedule report adds a few smaller changes: no Dapper Dans or Adventure Friends Cavalcade times were listed for November 10. On November 11, the cavalcade retained an 11:05 a.m. showing and the Dapper Dans had six sets. Casey’s Corner Pianist was listed for three sets on November 10 and six on November 11.

Disney’s expanded Dapper Dans calendar independently confirms the six November 11 sets: 9 a.m., 9:50 a.m., 10:40 a.m., 12:05 p.m., 1:10 p.m. and 3:55 p.m., Orlando time. The other street-performer details are attributed to BlogMickey. Our November 2 check of Disney’s day calendars reconfirmed the 2 p.m. Christmas parade and the evening Starlight and Happily Ever After times above on both dates.
