Each night during Disneyland After Dark: Sweethearts’ Nite, a Royal Cavalcade makes its way from Main Street U.S.A. to “it’s a small world” where Royal Disney couples gather for a Royal Ball. The cavalcade includes many of your favorite Disney Princesses and Princes riding in beautiful horse drawn carriages.

The Royal Cavalcade begins with two footmen carrying a Sweethearts’ Royal Ball Cavalcade banner.

The Disneyland After Dark: Sweethearts’ Nite Royal Cavalcade is a highlight of the After Dark event. The cavalcade is performed three times each event night. When the cavalcade ends at “it’s a small world”, the Prince and Princesses attend a Royal Ball hosted by the Fairy Godmother and the Grand Duke. Guests attending the ball are invited to dance along with the royalty as each royal couple is introduced.
