Review of Swing into Spring 2015 in Disneyland Paris
I’ve been off the Disneyland Paris radar for 6 weeks, so I didn’t know anything about the Swing into Spring celebrations in Disneyland Paris before writing this article, and searching for the associated videos for each part. So far removed from the Disneyland Paris community have I been, that I had to text Mark from our podcast and ask him what elements actually made up Swing into Spring this year. Then it was off to PixieDust.be who I can always rely on to have photos and videos up pretty quickly, and…

Disneyland Paris Wish List for 2015
It’s taken me a few days to get around to writing this because I wasn’t sure what I’d put on the list, given that there are strong rumours as to a lot of what is happening in Disneyland Paris in the next couple of years. Space Mountain IS shutting in a few days for major development, that won’t include new trains, something we found out a couple of months ago. We have been told by pretty reliable, but unofficial sources, that the Star Wars Jedi Training Academy is coming to Videopolis…

Disneyland Paris Pins for January 2015 – A Big Selection of Good!
Happy New Year everyone! Now, let’s get on to pins, and the first releases in Disneyland Paris for 2015. Apologies for the generic post title, but it’s such a varied selection that no character or franchise specific title will do this month justice, so I didn’t even try! First and foremost, we have an attraction series badge, and it’s the recently revitalised Moteurs…Action! Stunt Show Spectacular, which if you didn’t know, has big stunts back again. Nice pin, and at just €7,99, this series continues to offer great quality at a…

Disneyland Paris Christmas Parade 2014 Photos
It’s been two weeks to the day since I left Disneyland Paris, but the memory of the great Christmas parade stays with me. You can read my thoughts on it here, but for now I leave you with some photos I took – from two different locations. I’m hoping next year Disneyland Paris will add another float to the Christmas parade, but still keep the cavalcade energy and fun factor.

Disneyland Paris 10 Things To Know Before You Go 2014 Update
If you stay on site in Disneyland Paris you will have a channel on your in room television that features the lovely Sophie and her 10 Things To Know Before You Go show. This is a highlight for me and for a long time I have tried to track Sophie down for either an interview or guest slot on the podcast, to no avail. If anyone out there can put me in touch with Sophie, please email steve@dedicatedtodlp.com. Anyway, back on point and we have an updated version of this visual…

Review of Christmas 2014 in Disneyland Paris – Decorations, Dreams!, Wishes & Christmas Parade
Last week was my 7th visit during the Christmas season at Disneyland Paris, and my 4th year in a row of the festive celebrations. I’ve said on many occasions that weather aside, it’s certainly my favourite time of year to go, and I was expecting to come away thinking the same thing. I’m a huge Christmas fan anyway, and it’s a time of year that brings lots of fond memories and means a lot to me, unlike Halloween which I never celebrated growing up. I never even went trick or treating…
