An era has come to an end to the dismay of Walt Disney World fans.
The last showing of the The Main Street Electrical Parade rolled down the streets of the Magic Kingdom for the final time Sunday night in front of packed crowds.
But the parade will not be packed up in a warehouse for long. It is making the trip back to the West Coast for a limited-time run in Disneyland early next year, Walt Disney World announced.
This isn't the first time the parade has moved from one U.S. Disney park to another. It debuted in Disneyland in 1972. It also was performed in Disney California Adventure park from 2001 until 2010, when it returned to Orlando, park officials said.
And for those who want to light up the night with half a million of twinkling lights, the Walt Disney World version of the parade will live on thanks to Facebook, YouTube and other social media outlets.
