Walt Disney's Main Street Electrical Parade Farewell Season (1996)

This souvenir VHS tape celebrates the closing of the Walt Disney Main Street Electrical Parade. The parade originated in the 1970's and has become a Disney theme park staple as revered as any of the definitive rides and attractions. With much fanfare, it was claimed 1996 would be the final season of the parade and it would be retired. Lightbulbs from the floats were even sold to guests as souvenirs. However, Disney LIED. Within the year, the parade turned up in New York City to celebrate the release of Hercules and then went on a world tour to other Disney theme parks. It's since returned to the stateside parks and, although it's been retired a few times over the years, it never seems to go away.
