The Disneyland Paris 25th Anniversary Grand Celebration – World Class, and a Look Into The Future?
I couldn’t be at the official 25th anniversary of Disneyland Paris yesterday for a number of reasons, but thanks to some live streaming from Disneyland Paris themselves and some excellent coverage from fans in attendance, I managed to see a lot of what went on.
