The Electrical Water Pageant is a show that takes place several times every evening (weather permitting) in Walt Disney World's Seven Seas Lagoon and Bay Lake. It features fourteen floats with lights that depict images of sea creatures. It was originally set to the tune of Baroque Hoedown by Jean-Jacques Perrey and Gershon Kingsley, and now has different musical themes for each float, the main theme being Fanfare from The Little Mermaid. It is the predecessor to the classic Main Street Electrical Parade, which used an updated version of Baroque Hoedown by Don Dorsey. Floats include King Triton, a sea serpent, dolphins, and turtles. At the end of the show, the floats turn into lighted flags and stars, for a patriotic finale. A record for the show's music was released in 1973.
