The World Disney World Happy Easter Parade 1985 – 1999

The first of many annual Walt Disney World Happy Easter Parade television specials aired on ABC on April 7, 1985. The First Parade was hosted by Rick Dees and Joan Lunden. In 1986 the Walt Disney World Easter Parade appeared as part of The CBS Easter Parade (March 30, 1986), which switched between the Walt Disney World parade and one on Fifth Avenue in New York City.  The 1988 parade was hosted by Joan Lunden, Alan Thicke, and Regis Philbin. The telecasts continued for 15 years until 1999.  The final installment of the parade was hosted by Caroline Rhea and D.L. Hughley.  We broke out our VCR, converted what we could, and have them all here for you to enjoy.

Sam has been visiting Walt Disney World since 1986. The spark from those early trips lead to an interest in the "How" and "Why" behind Disney Parks and Resorts and the thrill of discovering the history of how we got here today. That History is still being written. In addition to participating on The Disney Nerds Podcast you can find blogs at www.samsdisneydiary.com
