The Forest of Enchantment – A Disneyland Paris Success Story
Today is the 10th May, which means it was just 2 days ago that The Forest of Enchantment had its last showing at The Chaparral Theater in Disneyland Paris. This is a show that we first got wind of back in August last year, and with very little information I speculated that maybe it would be an updated Frozen show, but that was debunked a month later when we found out they were auditioning for the parts of Pocahontas, Rapunzel, Flynn Rider with Merida and Tarzan being mentioned 2 weeks later.…

Disneyland Paris Photo Friday: Main Street, U.S.A in Black and White
I had some time to myself early morning one day when I was over in Disneyland Paris last May, so I strolled up and down Main Street, U.S.A, taking in the splendour and atmosphere, snapping a few photos as I went.

I think they suit the time in which Main Street, U.S.A…

From Harry Potter to Disneyland Paris in under 3 hours
Some articles take weeks of research and have word counts into the thousands, at the other end of the spectrum there are those that are merely elongated thoughts that have popped into my head and I feel the need to share with the world.

Disneyland Paris Mickey and the Magician Press Release – More Information Revealed
Earlier this morning Disneyland Paris sent out an official press release about the new Mickey and the Magician show, and at this point Twitter exploded with tweets of the press release and about it. I immediately closed Twitter down, and decided I’d read it in my own time and form my own opinions. As great as social media is for relaying news and networking, it can be a bit overwhelming and can influence your opinion before you’ve even fully made it, if you let it. So, let’s get onto that press…

Disneyland Paris News: runDisney Half Marathon Confirmed For 2017
We are a little over 5 months away from the inaugural runDisney Half Marathon in Disneyland Paris and just today, ED92 have published an interview they conducted with Laurent Charbonnier (in charge of Sports Events at Disneyland Paris Business Solutions) confirming next years event will be held September 22nd-24th 2017. I say it’s a half marathon, only because that is the distance for the event this year and I’m assuming it will be the same next year, but maybe it will go to a full marathon for the 25th Anniversary? I…
