Not sure if anyone had posted this. Could be useful as a planning tool too,
Times for cavalcades in all 4 parks are now shown in the MDE app.

I thought the whole point was that they are random. I guess they aren’t worrying anymore about crowds gathering but with Florida’s numbers not looking great, it might have been wiser to keep them random.

I don’t think they have enough CMs back to run the parades.
A lot of the character performers, for example, have been brought back but are in other roles until they can hire enough people to release them.
I know but that doesn’t mean they can’t have random cavalcades does it? Maybe the randomness was getting bad feedback.

I agree w/ you. The randomness was part of the fun too. Last year for the Halloween cavalcades they posted which days the different ones could be seen. I did like that and I think that was enough.

I see what you mean.
I suspect CMs are fielding a lot of questions about when they are, and it was decided they might as well fix the times.

Yes that makes sense.
I still think it will probably “feel” random if you are walking down the street. I also did enjoy hearing the music get loud and looking to see who was coming. But at the same time we wasted a ton of timing waiting and hoping for the Main Street Philharmonic and never actually saw them! Since they aren’t doing any sort of selfie spots or other character greetings, I think it makes sense to set a schedule of the cavalcades. Not that FL seems to care, but I don’t think they’ll cause the usual parade crowding since they are so short and happen so often.
Maybe this is more of a sign that they are likely to be semi-permanent?
