Scotty McCreery will definitely have a Memorial Day to remember. He’s the latest “American Idol” to head to Disney World following their big win, where Disney’s Hollywood Studios held a parade in his honor.

McCreery rode alongside Mickey Mouse down the streets of Disney’s popular movie-themed park, where he performed his hot-selling new single “I Love You This Big” in front of the park’s “American Idol Experience” attraction.

The 17-year-old North Carolina native also made a surprise appearance inside the”American Idol Experience” attraction, surprising a packed theater of “Idol” fans and tourists visiting the park over the holiday weekend.

In the attraction, park visitors can audition, hit the stage to perform in front of a theatre filled with tourists, and even win a Dream Ticket that works like a FastPass to a real “American Idol” audition.

McCreery might also soon be seen making a special permanent appearance inside the first-ever “American Idol” theme park attraction, which already features cameos from Carrie Underwood, Jordin Sparks, Lee DeWyze, and more.

McCreery’s “I Love You This Big,” currently in the top 5 on iTunes, could become his first top 10 hit on this week’s Hot 100.
