    Disneyland Paris 25th Anniversary Review: Pirates of the Caribbean – Refurbished and Improved

    I did it, I managed to avoid all spoilers for what changes had been made to Pirates of the Caribbean in Disneyland Paris before seeing it with my own eyes. Well, I knew Captain Jack would be in there somewhere as that has been a not so secret plan for some years now. But that aside, staying away from social media and not opening emails titled Pirates of the Caribbean Reopens July 24th from Disneyland Paris communications was certainly the way to go! It was just 6 days ago that I…

    Top 10 Things To Look Forward to at Disneyland Paris this Summer

    10) Big Thunder Mountain This is a maybe at the moment, as my son isn’t sure he wants to ride it. For years he was too small, then when he grew tall enough the ride went down for refurbishment for a year. Now it’s back up, some of the time, the nerves have kicked in and when I last asked him he wasn’t keen. He’s a bit like me, in that my last and only ride on Big Thunder Mountain was back in 2012 and whilst I wouldn’t call the experience…

    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. It all started with the Grand Celebration of 25 Years show in the morning, that rumour had it would be big, and involve a lot of characters. Nothing could prepare us for what we saw, and while I didn’t get to soak up the atmosphere of…

    Disneyland Paris 25th Anniversary Review: Disney Illuminations

    I was a huge fan of Disney Dreams! when I watched with the live premiere (ahem) with the rest of the online community, and I was an even bigger fan when 6 weeks later I watched it with my own eyes, and ears, in Disneyland Paris. I’ve watched it many times since, through its various scene changes and seasonal variations and have been a fan throughout, some incarnations more than others. However, when Disney Illuminations was announced, I wasn’t sad that Disney Dreams! was ending, but more excited for what we…

    Disneyland Paris 25th Anniversary Review: Disney Stars on Parade

    We haven’t had a brand new parade in Disneyland Paris since the Once Upon A Dream Parade in 2007. Yes we had Disney’s Magic on Parade in 2012, but bar the song, it was more of an iterative change than a new parade. So getting a brand new parade, with all new floats and all new music was a big thing, and with that came much expectation. We had some idea of what to expect from the Disneyland Paris My Sparking 25th, which saw vloggers go backstage as the floats were…
