I believe this is only the 3rd or 4th year for the DAK X-Mas version ... heck, I haven't even seen it yet so it can't possibly be that old ;-)

Tokyo Disneyland is the only park that regularly rotates parades, but they also give more budget for entertainment since that's what draws the locals in each season. Although lately, it seems like TDR is getting a bit cheap/lazy like the US parks and using the same entertainment for years at a time. With the Christmas parades at the US parks though, I wonder if some of it isn't nostalgia too. I think some people like tradition and seeing "A Christmas Fantasy" parade each year is nice for some. I don't know if that's a reason management keeps running it year after year, but it's a thought I had. I wouldn't mind seeing new parades every season though. Especially since they could probably buy the floats from Tokyo.

You don't know anything beyond what WDW offers, reason why you don't have a clue about where my opinions come from. "This" TDLFAN has spoken.

Everybody here agrees about how this parade is so nice when you post something that we don't wanna hear because we already know that your going to say something completly different along with Tokyo this & that. Who cares were not talking about Tokyo Disneyland or Tokyo Universal ok this is about Mickey's Jingle Jungle Christmas Parade & not Tokyo Universal's christmas tree so talk about something that were talking about if its something we don't want to hear then don't say nothing! I have spoken!
