I think someone has asked on twitter too but again no reply. I suspect it was a rehearsal/or real thing for the press event...

Yeah I think it must of been for the press event. I have seen you tube videos of last Christmas with just the band though x

Whos FB did you see it on ? Never seen that last Christmas either for the general public

These are the Christmas huts - They are more or less the same as last year selling various food bits - fruit dipped in chocolat, hot chestnuts, mulled wine, biscuits and cakes from Alsace and various sweets

I've just got back from Paris. The opening of the sugar house in DIsneyland Hotel took place yesterday. Other Christmas stuff was the Christmas Cavalade instead of the 20th anniversary train. Other Parade is the same no Xmas stuff added. There is a meet and greet set up for Duffy but he wasn't there on Friday anyway.

Carrie - thank you for the photos - I had heard about those, they look lovely - very Christmas market like The mulled wine sounds great . Do you know if they are open until quite late at night please? I presume so due to the Village hours but just wondered if we could do this when the park closes (perhaps even after Cafe Mickey one night).

petals - I hope that you had a nice time. The gingerbread house looks amazing this year - can't wait to see it in real life. The little train is SO cute .

I just checked the video it was press event last year as well I can't copy and paste a link but its when I search Disneyland Paris Christmas 2011 it comes up on the press event video.

It was on Disneyland Paris fans Facebook.

If it's anything like last year, then I would assume yes! On our final night last year we used up what was left of our loose euros to buy chocolate dipped strawberries and marshmallows It was after the park had closed and we'd gone back to the hotel for a bit and we'd done a bit of shopping so it must have been at least a couple of hours after closing and they were still open and busy!

They are open late so well after park closing but I'd check with them the exact times

Such a shame that there is no longer the stands selling Christmas gifts from around France and Europe plus other food bits that they used to have in the late 90's early 00's.

It just dwindled way over the years to these now

Thank you Carrie. I'm sure we'll catch them at some point. We all love roasted chestnuts so they'll be on our list. At this rate, we'll need to be rolled on the airplane on the way back - we are cramming in so many meals & food in basically, 3 days! .

It was nice. Florida is my Disney home really. This was my third time in DLP but last time was 9 years ago so interesting to see the differences. Some people are unbelievably rude which kind of took away from the experience but I'll save it all for the trip report lol

Speaking of I will be doing a trip report but if anyone wants to see Xmas pics sooner pm me your facebook address as the trip report will take a while

 

[DLPDreams]

I'm not on FB so can't see them. I hope you had some nice experiences though .

It'd be nice if they did some of those effects on the castle as people wait for Dreams!

Do the garlands across main street look more impressive in reality than the pictures go the impression of?.

I like them, but it does feels to me from the pictures that there aren't enough of them, and they are too widely spaced?.

Just me?.

Yes, I do know what you mean. They seem a little underwhelming but I am hoping in real life that they will look good with everything else around. A lot of people are saying that they should have been bigger and have better lighting as the lights are tiny. I am sure the ones in DL are larger. But like I say, they might look great when you are there .

I agree re that press video (DCP), the tree is great and just shows what else can be achieved with the Dreams software. I hope that they do use this every night before Dreams or something. Probably not though!
