Mickey's Jammin' Jungle Parade
Posted: Wednesday June 7, 2023 1:00pm ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

Two parade units from the long-retired Mickey's Jammin' Jungle Parade have appeared in a rather unusual location - an automobile museum in Chicago.

Mickey's Jammin' Jungle Parade stepped off for the final time on May 31, 2014, after nearly 13 years at Disney's Animal Kingdom.

Two of the parade units are now in the Volo Auto Museum, an automobile museum and collector car dealer in the Chicago suburb of Volo, Illinois, USA.


The Minnie Mouse and Goofy units are on display, which you can see in the video below.

Mickey's Jammin Jungle Parade joined the park as part of the 100 Years of Magic celebration, opening to guests on September 24 2001. Along with the regular Jammin' Jungle Parade, there was also a special Holiday edition - Mickey's Jingle Jungle Parade.

    Yup, those and the pre-park opening shows. Those shows were such a fun way to start the day.

    Crazy they don’t have a parade all parks, used to be the Disney difference…

    Damn, I saw the picture on the front page and had a brief moment of false hope. Still cool though.

    I remember when WDW used to have parades at all their parks that used to run daily.

    The Volo museum is about an hour NW of me. Never been there. I have seen the Volo museum set up at an antique flea market in Elkhorn, Wisconsin and they have a bunch of overpriced Disney items for sale( pins, lunch boxes, view masters, etc)

    Remember those crazy days when all Disney parks actually had this cool stuff called “included entertainment “ that set them apart from all the competitors??? Ahhhh the good old days!

    Sorry for the crazy bump.. But thought this was pretty cool. Looks like 2 of the parade floats are on display in some car museum

    This made me cry. Hope they can bring back something be it a show or whatever using the music and costumes.
