How to be a Grand Marshall

Here is a little known fact about Hong Kong Disneyland, it's way off direction for my blog but it's worth getting out there.

For each Grand Parade at HK Disneyland, they recruit Grand Marshals from the visitors. The Gram Marshal leads the parade down Main St. To be selected, here is what you need to be.

  1. Be a visitor from outside Hong Kong
  2. Have children, preferably young kids
  3. Get there when the park opens, in fact get there around 20 mins before opening.
  4. Go through the turnstiles and go to the start of Main st.
  5. Hang around the square near the start of Main St. this is where the staff are looking for candidates. They are based at City Hall so keep an eye out.
Good luck with getting picked. on our last two visits, we have been Grand Marshals and then been approached again on our next visit. 

Post a comment and let me know how you go..
