    Disneyland Paris Pins for October 2014 – Halloween & Villains

    With all the talk of Halloween in Disneyland Paris, it should come as no surprise that is the over-riding theme for October’s pin releases. Thanks to Jean-Louis for uploading the official poster. Pop Art Villain Pins This is a great looking series of 6 pins, featuring Cruella, Ursula, Dr Facilier, Maleficent, Evil Queen and Captain Hook. The pop art style is a nice change from the usual designs and it even looks like parts of the characters extend outside the normal rectangle frame of the pin. At €6,99 each that’s pretty…

    It looks like the Halloween season in Disneyland Paris is going to go further than Disneyland Park and out into Disney Village too. This video has just been released by Disneyland Paris on their official YouTube channel and gives some more details: httpvh://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6Xe-Yr4ovo First thing to note is that this Disney Village Halloween entertainment runs from October 18th until November 2nd, so will not be there for the launch of the October 1st Halloween season elsewhere in Disneyland Paris.

    Disneyland Paris Halloween 2014: Sunflower Mickey Replaces Pumpkin Mickey

    Just yesterday I talked in this article about how the giant pumpkin Mickey which graced the Castle Stage last year, wasn’t there for the 2014 season. Well the Halloween decorating fairies were out last night, and thanks to InsideDLParis for taking the photo, this is what we now have instead: That’s quite a different visual from last year’s pumpkin Mickey, as seen in this photo from OOPARC: Apparently space issues are the reason it has changed, and while some have challenged the place of sunflowers in Autumn, they do grow grow…

    Disneyland Paris Halloween 2014: There’s A Dragon In The Bushes

    You have probably realised this already, but when we talked about the bramble set on the latest episode of the podcast, the one that will be a part of Maleficent’s Court, we failed to see one very obvious thing. You see, both Mark and I pointed out that there were a bunch of villains in the artwork, but no Maleficent, which seemed odd for something called Maleficent’s Court. Now let me post that artwork again. You see it? The reason there is no Maleficent character present is because she is already…

    Disneyland Paris Photo Friday: Halloween Has Arrived – Here Come The Pumpkins

    As we know from last Friday, Halloween could start earlier next year, but this year it starts on October 1st. That doesn’t mean nothing happens until that first day of the Halloween season in Disneyland Paris, as mid September sees the start of the theming appear in Main Street, U.S.A. and Frontierland. All these photos come from the brilliant InsideDLParis (Facebook and Twitter) who allows me to use his images on Dedicated to DLP. This first photo had me in awe this morning when I first saw it – the blue…

    Disneyland Paris News: Concept Art For New Halloween Float

    This has just hit the Twitter waves, and unlike before where it’s usually the likes of Radio Disney Club that have the scoop on these things, this piece of concept art comes from D23, the official Disney fan club which ironically offers very little to Disneyland Paris guests. The new float, from a few days ago we know to be called Raise The Rafters, looks very spooky indeed, and unlike the very harvest parade of last year. It’s not too dark that it will appear out of place though, as the…
