New Disneyland Paris 25th Anniversary Rumours Discussed
My good friends over at ED92 have today published an article of what we maybe can expect for the Disneyland Paris 25th Anniversary in 2017. Remember, these are just rumours and none of this has been confirmed by Disneyland Paris. While I have no doubt that ED92 has some great sources, we must at this point treat these as rumours, and not confirmed pieces of news. With permission, I am quoting extracts from the article, but for the full article please go over to ED92. Decorations The 25th will be draped…

The Character of Moana is Coming to Disneyland Paris for Christmas 2016 – Could We See More New Characters Too?
Disneyland Paris sent out a release this morning announcing that the titular character from the upcoming Moana (Vaiana in France) film will be coming to Disneyland Paris for part of Disney’s Enchanted Christmas season 2016. After months and years of guests complaining, rightly so, that Disneyland Paris never gets new characters, the resort will have Moana in time for the film’s release on November 30th. Here is the official statement from Disneyland Paris – for mentions of Vaiana I have replaced with Moana (Vaiana): Disneyland® Paris will surf the Moana (Vaiana)…

Hotel Cheyenne Refurbishments in Disneyland Paris – Better or Worse?
Disneyland Paris released an article yesterday showcasing the newly refurbished rooms at Hotel Cheyenne, and immediately my heart skipped a beat. You see, ever since I first visited Disneyland Paris in 2002, and stayed in Hotel Cheyenne, it’s been my favourite hotel there, or anywhere really. I love that it feels the least like being in a hotel, as the Western town design with the multiple two level buildings creates a very unique atmosphere. Inside the rooms this theme is continued, and knowing they were adding touches of Toy Story, would…

Disneyland Paris Photo Friday: The Signs & Adverts of Main Street, U.S.A.
There’s no argument against it, Main Street, U.S.A. is one of, if not the most beautiful place to be in Disneyland Paris. Under the railroad at one end and the sight of Sleeping Beauty Castle at the other, with a plethora of interesting and unique buildings in between. But have you taken time to look at the signs and advertisement posters that add to the atmosphere of recreating Main Street in the image of turn of the 20th Century America? They are works of art in themselves, and below I have…

Are Human Face Genie and Talking Mickey Coming to Disneyland Paris for Mickey and the Magician?
A few days ago some concept art for the upcoming Mickey and the Magician show which debuts in Disneyland Paris on July 2nd was leaked, and seems to show a human face character Genie rather than the big cartoon head Genie we are used to seeing for meet and greets. The first photo below shows the Genie we usually see in Disneyland Paris and the second is the aforementioned Mickey and the Magician concept art. There are two possibilities for face character Genie that I can see, one is the traditional…

New Food in Disneyland Paris: Super Seeds, Brain Food, Peanut Butter Bar and Pineapple Whip
Unless you’ve been living under a rock in the last few months you’ll know all about the rumours of Dole Whip coming to Disneyland Paris, which in fact turned out not to be Dole Whip but a snack known as Pineapple Whip. This is slightly different to Dole Whip, in that it evidently isn’t made by Dole and the soft scoop part is not non dairy ice cream like its American Dole counterpart. The ice cream part is also vanilla not pineapple like some were expecting, though that is the flavour…
