Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade will return for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party in 2026. A new casting notice seeks inline skating performers for the parade, likely for the Frozen section, as has been the case in previous years. Here’s the latest.
Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade Returns in 2026
A new casting notice from Disney Live Entertainment is seeking inline roller skating performers for the return of Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade at Magic Kingdom for the 2026 Holiday Season. The notice is the first confirmation that the parade will return this year. That said, it is a holiday season staple, and we don’t think that Disney is looking to make any big changes to their seasonal events anytime soon.
Here’s the casting notice, followed by a look at last year’s parade as snow falls on Main Street USA:
Disney Live Entertainment is seeking performers of all races, ethnicities, and genders, who are local to the Orlando, FL area, for Character and Inline Skating roles performing in Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade. We are looking for dynamic, energetic performers who are interested, and available, to perform for the 2026 Holiday season at the Walt Disney World® Resort in Orlando.
Inline Skaters: 5’7″ and above. Slender and/or athletic builds, with past skating experience. Must be comfortable enough to perform choreography in skates, including spinning, edging, etc.
