Special Events at Disneyland Paris - 1996

[cap'njack.]

Following on from a thread about changes to DLRP I managed to find this information on special events happening during the early months of 1996 and it makes for some great reading:

Fairytale Festival - Fantasyland, Jan 8-Apr 4 1996

This special season lets you relive and experience the most magical and magnificent moments of this mysterious world.

Things to see and do:

* A giant gingerbread house with all its enticing candy
* Each day, the marriage of Sleeping Beauty and her handsome
prince Philippe [sic] on his white horse
* A pumpkin magically becomes Cinderella's carriage
* A new classic parade featuring 'modern' fairytales (Little
Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, Lion King and
Pocahontas)
* "Kids Free" promotion from Jan 1 to April 4. [Presumably as
per previous years - i.e. one child package free per adult
booking]

Far West Festival - Frontierland, Apr 12-Jun 23 1996

In Frontierland there will be three main areas of activity for the Far West Festival: the Chaparral Stage, Cowboy Cookout and at the entrance to Frontierland.

* Lumberjacks from Canada will stage a log cabin building
contest
* Country music groups will be performing
* Line dancers
* A stagecoach arriving into town with the girls from the
Lucky Nugget Saloon on board
* Indians [ahem, Native Americans?] doing authentic
hairbraiding, face painting and making headdresses from
eagle feathers

Western Stunt Show - Apr 12-Jun 23

The show centres around 'Lucky Luke' and the 'Dalton Brothers'. The show is new and very lively and features the US Cavalry and cowboys and Indians. So that everyone can enjoy the show, it is all action and few words!![/LEFT]

Interesting ~ I wonder how many DISers experienced this.

My first trip to DLRP wasn't until 2005 and I'm very envious of those who've been going since the beginning.
