Disney is getting ready for the holiday season right now! We know it’s only July, but these preparations take MONTHS, so they’ve got to be ahead of the game. We already spotted hints about what the Halloween and Christmas parades will look like in Disney World — casting calls and audition announcements gave us an inside look at changes there. Now, we’ve found another casting call that reveals what Disney plans to do for the 2023 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade!

Disney has long been part of the popular Thanksgiving Day Parade, and it looks like they’re planning to return in 2023.

In 2021, Disney debuted the Disney Wish parade float — called “Magic Meets the Sea” — which was modeled after the newest ship on the Disney Cruise Line.

We’ve also seen a gigantic Baby Yoda balloon float in the parade.

Last year, there was a performance by the cast of The Lion King on Broadway to celebrate the show’s 25th anniversary.

So what’s Disney going to do in 2023? It looks like the Disney Wish cruise ship float might be returning. According to a recent casting call, Disney is looking for characters to be part of the float. The audition says it’s for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in 2023 but also lists that it’s about the Disney Cruise Line.
