Disney's Eureka! A California Parade

[CommunityBuildersSB]

The video abruptly ends before the giant Chinese take-out container tries to catch the giant fortune cookie wih his chopsticks.

[CommunityBuildersSB]

Have you uploaded the finale?

[CommunityBuildersSB]

Eureka! was one of the most clever and creative parades Disney has ever produced. I miss it, too.

[1leprecon]

Wow. I remember this parade. Wow. Wasn't this the original day time parade at California Adventures ?

[Sebizzar]

@1leprecon Yeah, i don't get why they had to get rid of it :[

[termtoon06]

the original california adventure parade! :D

[mandalilpanda]

By far the worst parade Disney has ever put on.

[babyramos13]

@mandalilpanda clearly u havent seen "celebrate! a street parade" at disneyland park THANK GOD ITS OVER!! a hannah montana song for a parade song? WTF!!

[mandalilpanda]

@babyramos13 Haha no I haven't, that sounds pretty bad.

[babyramos13]

@mandalilpanda sounds! looks and it is preety bad very HORRIBLE

[madrjason]

i miss this only saw this twice

[swiftfan4293]

@madrjason i miss this to i was only 8 when this went away i think. this was and is my favorite parade.

[madrjason]

@swiftfan4293 i know i only saw this twice .. when i was a kid . it totally brings back memories from these days when california adventure opened in 2001

[hogbackmtn]

This looks pretty cool. I wish I could have seen this. It looks like they were going with a kind-of Tapestry of Nations approach, but it didn't really go so well. I understand why they dropped it in favor of something more energetic like Block Party Bash or Pixar Play Parade. Still, I think it goes well with what the original experience of Disney's California Adventure was.

[poisonheart1313]

Wow, this parade is quite beautiful. Sad that it only lasted a short amount of time though :(

[JimmyKor]

Eureka! 'Seasons of the Vine' and "Golden Dreams' were three smaller attractions at DCA that made me think that the new park had a chance.

Boy was I wrong! All three are GONE!!!

[rvwii]

...that's me at 4:09 jumping out at the top of the "L.A. Tower" float!

[TheDISNEY365]

wow thats so awsoem!

[Sebizzar]

@rvwii LoL hi Bob xD

[therealsimmer3]

5:30 - great float-music transition

[Timfromtampa99]

There is something really cool about this parade. It has that Disney feel, but isn't all about characters. They did a good job cause I know what all the sections are in relation to California's history. The parade ties in really well with the theme of the park. Did they ever release the soundtrack?

[therealsimmer3]

Yes, look up "Music from Disney's California Adventure".

[TheDISNEY365]

yes they did  and i so agree!

[Horizons5556]

WOW!! A truly cool parade! It's not supposed to be draped in characters, and you can clearly see that. It represents the golden dreams of California, and does a great job. Now if it weren't for Disney's budget cuts on this park, The park would not need a 1 billion + makeover, and it would be a truly AMAZING park. I will miss Disney's -CALIFORNIA- Adventure...

[therealsimmer3]

Funny thing is that this is the ONLY video of this parade on here.

[therealsimmer3]

In fact, this is apparently the only video on the web that exists of this parade. After doing a couple of searching, many sites have the same video.

[jdh2006]

hmmm....that may say something about the quality of this parade....lol

[kpd100000]

this parade is awsome they should bring it bring it back it will keep more people at the park

[EGPicturesStudios]

I don't think it will. Because California Adventure isn't have that much a Disney park. And the Parade didn't have any Disney characters performing.

[littlepancho]

OMG this video brings back lots of memories.

This was the longest running parade in Disney California Adventure.

I was in this parade. You can see me with the tricycle carring the Sun in the begining of the show.

This parade didnt have any Disney Characters because we were launching California and all races were in this Parade. Thanks for posting the video.

I dont have any copy so this video got my chills running.

[VMKBennybillbob]

ewhen i first saw this i was like, this is a parade? the music rocked tho!!

[calacalaveca]

the entrance is a mexican dance...i really like it the cultural diversity

[stephygtz1]

this was my favortie parade cause it was a mix of cultures of the world for me and to be honest it was a beautiful parade.

there wasnt disney characters, so? you cant say than this parade wanst good

and the music is great :D

thanks for the video!

[shazammy101]

I saw this parade when california adventure opened i too was a little dissappointed {no disney characters} but it was a woderful parade it showed focused on california`s cultural diversity,this was a perfect daytime parade it`s too bad it didn`t last shazammy101

[bblover321]

has it finished!?!?!

[jdh2006]

LOL!!!

[shazammy101]

i believe "Eureka ! the california adventure parade finished it's run, it's a shame it was a well thought out parade, but with no disney characters in it ,children were not entertained. the parade music is on the california adventure theme park cd

[hogbackmtn]

I don't think it's just the characters-- at least, I hope it's not because of the characters! I wouldn't want them to give up on making non-character based parades, like this and Tapestry of Nations and such.

[jdh2006]

It's decent...I would have stayed and watched.

[shadow1111111]

Not a single Disney character is sight...

[jdh2006]

It's not the Magic Kingdom.

[shadow1111111]

Yes, but a park that has the title of Disney needs to have some sort of, I don't know, Disney in it!

[crazycaterpilla]

Dont you think a park with the title of California should have alittle California in it???

[DisneyFreakToTheMax]

i love the steel drum floats!!! :D

they are like so cool

[pperri38]

This parade accompanied the opening of Disney's California Adventure. It was the first parade t in that park.

[Nkedcity]

I never had the chance to see the parade I guess I didn't miss much. what annoys me the most is the music!It's cheep and and mundane and exactly the opposite of what Disney can do.

[BluTaiger]

Wow. I have the music of this parade on my PC and I really like it. So it's nice to be able to actually see the parade itself.

That looked great! Why did they have to cancel it?!

[Marchetta88]

it wasnt cancled... it was changed as all disney parades in any park round the globe are... the one after it was the parade of dreams, which i dont like... o well...... there was however one parade the was cancled in disney parade history which was the tapesrty of dreams parade at epcot in FL and that was b/c they said that the park layout was propper for a parade... i think thats a load of bull, cause it is my favorite parade

[klpeekl2000]

Well, Tapestry of dreams wasnt the only parade that was canceled. Light Magic at Disneyland was canceled.

[TerryT1976]

I miss this parade so much and wish this parade could return to DCA. I used to watch this and Disney's Electrical Parade-two great parades in one day!

[Tombique55]

I miss that parade.

It was so much fun to be near it

[Vercalos]

Strange to see a parade that hasn't been running for at least a year submitted only several days ago.

[TwilightZoneAnaheim]

This is a cool video!

Seeing the best parade DCA has ever had again, is good stuff!
