Mulan Parade Banner Disney MGM Studios

 This parade based on Disney's 36th animated film started down Hollywood Boulevard on June 19th, 1998, which was the same day the movie was released.  Mostly using an instrumental of the song Honor to Us All (with some of I'll Make a Man Out of You thrown in) as the theme, It featured over 53 performers.  The parade ended March 11, 2001 and  was replaced by the Stars and Motor Cars parade.  

The Parade Floats

Prior to the parade beginning, Mushu is heard urging the audience "show Mulan we mean business".  Once the audience makes enough noise, he promises "one family reunion coming right up."  As he rides by as a passenger in a bicycle, he continues to talk:

Mushu: Hey everybody.  Sit back, relax, 'cause the Mulan parade is on its way!  (Chuckles.)  Can I make things happen or what?  Hey folks, y'all remember me, right?  I am your one and only guardian.  I am the powerful, the pleasurable, the indestructible Mushu!

Disneyland Variations

 The Disneyland version of the parade was mainly run at night.  It had a few more floats than the one at the Studios.  Supposedly these floats, such as the one below featuring Mulan's ancestors, were shipped to the Disney/MGM Studios after the parade finished its California run in 1999.  However, nothing in the form of pictures or video has yet surfaced showing they were used at the Studios.
