Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox attraction The Glow in the Park Parade is a parade that takes place every night during the summer months at Six Flags Mexico, and formerly at other Six Flags parks.
History
Six Flags teamed up with The Goddard Group to create a nighttime parade[1] at several of their parks. The Glow in the Park Parade started at three parks in 2008: Six Flags Great Adventure,[2] Six Flags México, and Six Flags New England.[3] The parade at each park ran from late May to early September each year. During the parade, the theme park lights would dim to increase the visibility of the illuminated floats. The parade featured drummers, puppeteers, dancers, and kinetic stilt walkers.[2] Various Looney Tunes characters, DC Comics characters, Scooby-Doo, and Mr. Six were among the characters that appeared in the parade.
In 2009, the parade was added in two more parks, Six Flags Over Texas[4] and Six Flags St. Louis.[5] In 2010, Six Flags Great America added the parade.[6]
In late 2010, Six Flags began to remove licensed theming from its parks' attractions.[7][8] While terminating the licenses from attractions, they also terminated the parade at four of their parks. Great America removed the parade in 2012, leaving Six Flags Mexico the only park where the parade still performs, mainly for seasonal events.
Since 2015, the parade is shown at Six Flags Mexico's Christmas in the Park event, and so the parade's name changed to Christmas Light Parade, with a christmassy soundtrack replacing Let it Shine. A temporary float sponsored by Netflix's The Christmas Chronicles also appeared at the end of the parade in 2018.
