I'm a little out of my habit to post news. But this news is too good not to post.

Disney Dreams will return as of 12 April 2023

Disney Dreams will replace Illuminations. I couldn't be happier, I never warmed up to Illuminations and nothing topped (the original) Disney Dreams for me.

Agreed, I cannot wait to watch it again. I hope it'll stay after the end of the 30th Grand Finale, which is currentl scheduled to be the 30/09, I think.
Problem is, to watch both Dreams and the Avengers show there is only a short window, between 12/04 and 08/05 and it's during French school holidays, so I think very busy? Not sure if I want to face that.

A heads up for those going in the coming weeks (maybe months)
The Peter Pan float is in repair, apparently a costly / time consuming affair. So at the moment in the parade it's just Captain Hook on Skull Rock, Peter joined Wendy and the lost boys in front of the float.

The new avenger's show is excellent! Drone tech is really improving and this show has somewhat been eclipsed by the Disneyland 100 celebrations but this is the tech for the next 100 years!

Yes, inquiring minds want to know if it will be there in June

Yes, inquiring minds want to know if it will be there in June

I believe early May. Because of light levels. I expect it will be way too light even at 9:30pm for the drone show in late May through to end of July.

Is the anniversary date of April 12 going to be a day where they might close park entry because it reached max capacity?
Right now, I'm due to arrive mid-day April 12th, but pondering if it makes sense to lose a day in the city to arrive on the 11th so that I got into park in the morning of the 12th before park entry was closed off (if they do that sort of thing there.) I'll also have all day Apr 13th and half-day Apr 14th.
If this question should be placed on a different thread, please feel welcome to move to the proper spot with my apologies.

I just looked at https://queue-times.com/parks/4/calendar/2022/04 which shows historical data at the park was at 97% capacity all the week of April 11th 2022. If this is your only time at the park and want a stress free time I would opt for the extra full day.

Fyi flight force won't be closing for a refurb this April but DLP has announced they will be working on the ride to update the rides lighting/projections and more at night. Apparently it was never finished and it could and hopefully will be better come May!

Agrabah Café is being refurbished from Feb 27 to June 2 according to this Tweet.

 

[villavic]

Me too! Although I am a bit bummed that Small World will be refurbed for so long

I read weeks ago Small World will reopen this spring. Does anybody know the exact day? Or when will it be announced?

I don't believe it's be announced. But i would imagine in time for the Easter holidays. With dreams coming back extra capacity is a must.

Character strike in Disneyland Paris today!

During the first show of Shine Brighter (30th anniversary parade & show) character actors spontaneously went on strike. Only the dancers did the show this morning.

They had discovered that the actress playing Tiana is getting a higher salary due to the lack of actresses. The conflict was resolved (for now), and the characters did appear in the 2nd show of the day.

The news of the missing characters appeared on several social media pages, but I have only found a Dutch themepark page to report the reason.

Bob Iger and Josh d'Amaro in Disneyland Paris today for 21st anniversary Walt Disney studios

He had a tour of the new Avengers Campus and will see the show Shine Brighter in Disneyland Park for the 30th anniversary. 2 rides (Dumbo and Pinocchio) reopened 2 days earlier from refurbishment. Coincidence?
