Hi!

Well I did a lot of searching on this myself (it did the trick I booked the CC for NYE!!)

Best places to look....

Look on youtube
just do a search on Disneyland Paris New Years Eve and there is loads!

My friend wents this past new year, she is glad she has done it but is in no rush to do it again as the place was heaving. If you got not expecting to get on many rides without a long wait then you should be fine.

I can sign this.

We have been 2003/2004 and it was BUSSY.

I thought naively we would go to Mainstreet at 23:00 to look for a nice warm spot to see the fireworks at midnight - but 40 000 other quests had the same idea. From 22:00 onwards Mainstreet was so packed that it was even hard to find a place to stand. Everything was full with people even the Arcades. People were lying and sitting everywhere. Children were sleeping in the arms of their parents. Everyone tried to stay warm.

It was a real nice trip and something very special for New Years Eve but we also feel no rush to do it again.

Waiting times are horrible: 2h for everything. If you want to have a great spot for the parade you have to be there 2h before.

The firework for midnight was very cool and it was great to hear everyone counting from 10 to 0 in different languages. And right after midnight almost everyone wants to leave the park. This can be your chance to do some attractions with almost no waiting time.
We did PM right after midnight and it was great. The park is open until 1am.
