Disney’s Paint the Night Parade Crashes and Breaks – Watch the Moment It Went Wrong!
During a recent performance of Disneyland Resort’s newly revived Paint the Night parade, a rare incident occurred when a large moving prop was accidentally dropped, resulting in it breaking and losing its light-up capabilities. This mishap took place in the midst of the parade, a highly anticipated event known for its vibrant LED displays and iconic Disney characters.
A Breakdown at Disney’s Paint the Night
The Paint the Night parade, which made its return as part of Disneyland’s 70th anniversary celebration, features a range of elaborate floats and Disney characters, with Tinker Bell leading the way in the opening unit. The parade’s float boasts over 850,000 points of light, paying tribute to the beloved Main Street Electrical Parade.
This unfortunate incident highlights the challenges of performing with such complex props during live parades. The mishap occurred when the performer dropped the prop, causing it to malfunction. In a TikTok video of the incident, workers can be seen assessing the area before continuing the parade, likely checking for any broken pieces on the route.
This is not the first issue that this parade has had since reopening at Disneyland Resort this year. TikTok videos have also gone viral, showing both Tinker Belle and Donald Duck dropping their props into the parade route as well. As with any new show, some kinks need to be worked out.
