SpectroMagic was a Nighttime Parade presented in The Magic Kingdom at the Walt Disney World Resort. It was introduced in 1991 as part of the park's 20th anniversary celebrations, replacing the Main Street Electrical Parade.

In 2013, following reports that the SpectroMagic floats had been destroyed, Disney confirmed that the parade had been permanently retired.

The parade is about Mickey Mouse, along with the SpectroMagic Spectromen, who together create the power of SpectroMagic. After the first part of the Parade with Mickey Mouse and the SpectroMagic Spectromen, the parade then takes you though five different themes:

The Parade lineup consists of 24 Units.

Throughout the 17 years of running nightly at the Magic Kingdom, the SpectroMagic Parade has had various combinations of lineups. These range from different characters in different locations throughout the parade, to whole units being in a different order.

The soundtrack was released as its own album, rather than being featured on the Walt Disney World Official Album.

With 45+ Disney Characters, 14 Spectromen, and 8 Butterflies, this Parade demands over 65+ Performers every night.

The Piece of Disney History collection became "A Piece of SpectroMagic History" Collection for the year 2014. Each month one Limited Edition Disney Pin was released, and contained different original elements from the former SpectroMagic parade.
