Hello everyone, Here’s the news of this week-end !
For this Christmas season that will end on January 7, 2018, the choice of Disney was to integrate the colors of the 25 years in the decorations of Main Street USA. The latter are therefore exclusively in silver and Blue. The result is up to par, with in Town Square that recovers the old decorations of Central Plaza to dedicate this site to 25 years. Main Street makes the transition between Christmas decorations and the 25 years, it’s simple and well thought out.
This year the “Disney’s Christmas Parade” is back with new colors more flashy on the floats and the music has been completely changed. The result is not good, especially for music, which does not recall Christmas except to place the word “Christmas” in the lyrics. No sound allowing to refer to the season without any Christmas air that we know. Visitors who do not understand English, find themselves in front of a parade with a standardized music of Disneyland Paris, sung by a man and a woman during 4 minutes. There is a real lag between the visual and audio message!
What last year was the must of the season, this year, the parade lost in ambitions and is dethroned by two new shows that alone suffice to justify the visit to Disnayland Paris, “Mickey’s Christmas Big Band” and “Goofy’s Incredible Christmas “.
“Mickey’s Christmas Big Band” is THE show of the season which it is imperative to see and presented 5 times per day. Located in the shelter of the cold in Vidéopolis at Discoveryland, it is a real masterpiece that is offered to visitors. This quality show links both the glamour of gala receptions worthy of the evenings of December 31st but also performances making references to Broadway between dance, singing and live music! Mickey, Minnie and Goofy are also in the show to deliver performances, away the childish side that can be found in the “Merry Stitchmas” show at the Royal Castle Stage. This show is a must-see of the season.
In Frontierland, the restaurant Fuente del Oro has been embellished with new decorations on the theme of the movie “Coco”. And surprise, it is possible to meet a doll of Miguel, the hero of the film.
As in every summer and Christmas season, Frozen sing-along takes place in the Chaparral Theater! That said, it is worth noting that it will be the last season for this show/karaoke and this theater that will be demolished and rebuilt eliminating the pillars of sight. Demolition in 2018.
Finally for this Christmas, Disney offers its visitors the opportunity to discover a whole new night show on the Tower of Terror at Walt Disney Studios Park, offering an alternative or a combo at Disney Illumination in the Disneyland Park.
This show proves, once again the technological mastery of the Disney teams in the design (unlike the adaptation) of night-time shows. The energy and the dynamite is found throughout “the incredible Christmas of Dingo”, although some lengths are to be deplored during passages on stage, but this is only the order of detail. This celebration is perfect to close a visit to Disneyland Paris with Santa Claus!
You will have understood, this Christmas season is rich in offers, and we have not been able to show all, but the quality of some shows like “”Mickey’s Christmas Big Band” and “Goofy’s Incredible Christmas ” are enough to satisfy the family due of the quality and expected performances of Disney visitors.
