Disney Christmas Parade 2014 Highlights: Ariana Grande and Lucy Hale Perform
The Happiest Place on Earth hosted the Disney Parks Frozen Christmas Celebration complete with a parade of floats, festivities, familiar Disney characters and many celebrity faces.
The 2014 Disney Christmas parade aired Thursday morning across the nation as families gathered to open presents and celebrate the holiday.
Elsa, Anna, Kristoff and Olaf from the blockbuster movie "Frozen" were a part of the Christmas parade although their appearance was actually filmed in Orlando earlier this month. The adorable snowman along with Dance the Magic performed the movie's funniest song, "In Summer."
Utah's 12-year-old YouTube sensation, Lexi Walker, 12, performed the song "Let It Go" from "Frozen."
"I feel so lucky that I get to sing a song that I really love and that a lot of people know," Lexi Walker said shortly before the Christmas parade.
Laura Marano and Alex & Sierra performed 'Frozen' songs "Love Is an Open Door" and "Do You Want to Build a Snowman."
The parade included dancing gingerbread men, cheerleaders and marching toy soldiers. The fantastic floats featured movie scenes and classic Disney characters like Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse and Donald Duck, and holiday characters like the Misfit Toys and The Chipmunks. Santa Claus participated in the parade with his magnificently decorated sleigh with huge gift sack on top of a house-shaped float.
Ariana Grande sang her new Christmas single, "Santa Tell Me" on a winter wonderland stage of blue and white with dancers dressed in snow-white outfits. Silver sequin Mickey Mouse ears topped off her adorable outfit consisting of a white skirt and print top with white high heels.
Country artist Lucy Hale brought viewers holiday cheer as she stood atop a Cars Land float to perform her hit holiday song "Mistletoe."
Trey Songz, Prince Royce, Trisha Yearwood, Gavin DeGraw and Train also performed holiday classics.
Disney made holiday wishes come true by reuniting three groups of family and friends who thought they'd be separated during the holiday at three Disney locations: Walt Disney World, Disneyland, and Aulani, a Disney resort in Hawaii.
Robin Roberts hosted the event which also featured ABC contributors Rob Marciano and Tim Tebow. Miss America Kira Kazantsev and "Modern Family" star Sarah Hyland were in attendance as well.
Viewers also had the option to watch a live stream of the 2014 Disney Christmas Parade at ABC.com.
