It’s Christmas Day and you know what that means…time to watch your TV?!

Main Street, U.S.A. at Christmastime!
We’ve already experienced Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, EPCOT’s International Festival of Holidays, and the wild winter weather Orlando is experiencing this Christmas. But Christmas Day and Disney equal one important thing — Disney’s Magical Christmas Day Parade!
The parade was available to watch on ABC this morning, and you could stream it on Hulu. We were streaming it on ABC this morning so we watched the magical experience live!
Take a ride and join us for the #DisneyChristmasCelebration airing Christmas morning on @ABCNetwork! Stream on @Hulu. 🎡 🎢 @Disneyland @WaltDisneyWorld @DisneyCruise pic.twitter.com/ovMz7SdFzg

The parade is more than just characters marching down Main Street, U.S.A. For years, this holiday show has hosted some amazing musical acts.
We're in awe with @officialdfoster and @katharinemcphee's performance full of magic and cheer. ☃️ #DisneyChristmasCelebration @WaltDisneyWorld pic.twitter.com/MTtaQyZqKY

Il Volo performed, singing some beautiful holiday tunes.
Watching Il Volo is just what our hearts needed today.
According to @ilvolo, it's going to be a happy Christmas!✨ #DisneyChristmasCelebration @WaltDisneyWorld pic.twitter.com/hzEgL5M6pV

And, of course, the West Coast can’t be left out! Meghan Trainor donned the fashion of a true sugarplum fairy for her performance.

And more!
Earlier in the day, Good Morning America showed a special sneak peek at TRON Lightcycle Run, but this ABC Disney parade special also gave some additional behind-the-scenes nuggets of this new thrill ride with Daniella Perkins and Trevor Jackson.
During this preview, we got to see a bit more of the canopy of the TRON ride…
…the ride vehicles…
…and the way the backrest moves.
According to Imagineer Chris Beatty, they are in the testing process now.
As some test vehicles took off, we got an on-ride look at what TRON will be like.
Get ready to hold on tight!
From little details in the queue…
…to the thrilling outdoor portions, it looks like there will be a lot to experience.
From Disney World, we took a trip to the Disney Cruise Line for a special musical performance.
