Why wait until the end of December when you can celebrate Christmas as soon as November? Starting November 12th, Christmas will shine even brighter thanks to the 30th Anniversary celebration of Disneyland Paris! To spend magical moments with one’s family, an unforgettable getaway with one’s friends or even a romantic weekend, Disneyland Paris is the ultimate destination to fully enjoy the Magic of Christmas.
As soon as they will enter Disneyland Park, Guests will be amazed by the majestic 24-meter-high tree glittering with a thousand lights. In addition, Christmas lights will show them the way to Sleeping Beauty Castle, above which Disney D-Light – the drone show created for the 30th Anniversary celebration – will still be performed to light up Disneyland Paris’ sky every night. It’s magical!
With Christmas carols and snowflakes flying in the air… the Holiday spirit will definitely take over the area surrounding the impressive Christmas tree in Town Square. Additionally, “Mickey’s Dazzling Christmas Parade” will make its highly anticipated return. This parade – which celebrates winter in a truly magical way – was created in 2021. It features five enchanting floats with lights that are synchronized with music, along with Mickey and his friends, Disney Princesses, and Santa Claus accompanied by Tinker Bell. Each of these floats will represent a Christmas scene with iconic decorations and will be surrounded by “Illuminears” who will be dressed in luminous costumes specially designed for the occasion, so as to make Main Street U.S.A. shine both during the day and at night!
The “frosting” on the cake: during the Parade, Characters will make a special stop to light up the Christmas tree. This will be a golden opportunity to live one’s own fairy tale alongside family and friends!
