Wow, it looks amazing!
But the Electrical parade hasn't been shown in Paris in years, maybe in decades? How many people do remember it? Something like this in Disneyland in Anaheim would have a much bigger emotional impact.

I think the last showing of MSEP in Paris was early 2003, so over 20 years ago.

A snippet of the music "The Future's Starting Right Now" from the new spectacle A Million Splashes of Colour has been released. Happy and upbeat, and reminds me of the 30th anniversary and other Disney theme songs.

Also missed this tidbit of news.
We have the title of the new show to replace the Moteur Actions stunt show: Alice & The Queen of Hearts: Back to Wonderland
And apparently we get to choose the endings... Intrigued. There are plays that have this format where during intermission the audience decides how the play ends, but never seen it in a themepark. I think.

I don't know who writes the music for DLP events, but I love them.

Mother evacuates herself and children out of It's a Small World in Disneyland Paris.
She took her shoes off, got into the water, took her children out and left. Ignoring the castmember over the intercom and other guests.

No comment at all.

You are in permanent danger when you ride it´s a small world and I am glad all the time that I survived this ride.

Hate to be that "actually....." then correction person but actually my DH ( then boyfriend ) and I saw the Electrical light Parade at Disneyland Paris in 2005 and it was discontinued in 2016. Loved the music too.

Well, actually ;-)
To my knowledge, Disneyland Paris didn't have a night time parade for at least the last decade. I've been an annual passholder since the 2013 and I have never seen it in Paris. (Excluding the latest Christmas parade, debuting in 2022).

According to wikipedia, Main Street Electrical ended in 2003.
There is a mention on Trip Advisor where the poster thinks there was a night time parade which ended in 2011.

MSEP definitely ended in Paris in 2003. It was replaced the next year by Fantillusion which ran until the early 2010's and originally came from Tokyo Dinseyland, although DLP only used about half the floats from the original (costs in getting them shipped over I guess).

Ah, I stand corrected. Thank you. That Fantasia parade was the one we saw, but have seen the MSEP with younger sister in early 1990's

I dispare of the general public somedays. I hope she was met by security who then escorted them out of the park. She was luck the ride didn't start up again as she would have lost her leg/foot in the accident

Disneyland Hotel in Paris - new Royal Banquet restaurant only available for Disneyland Hotel guests

Initially the restaurant would be open for guests of other hotels for lunch only. Now this decision has been reverted and it's only available for guests who are actually staying in the Disneyland Hotel.
The new dining location is a character dining spot where several princesses (with or without princes) meet.

More idiots in Disneyland Paris. Someone released a smoke bomb (do you say it like this in English?)
The smoke was pink, so it did fit with the castle, but still... Idiots!

According to an eyewitness the people have been arrested.

Gender reveal?

Gender reveal?

Oh good suggestion, they do seem to pose for a picture after putting the smoke device down.

Lion King Ride in Disneyland Paris?

A Dutch Themepark website announced tonight that Disneyland Paris will replace the plans for Star Wars land with a Lion King water ride.
Originally we would be getting Galaxy's Edge in Paris, however after the reviews from WDW and DL were less glowing than Disney had hoped, this idea got scratched.

Disneyland Paris has no water rides, no Splash Mountain or something similar. So, on hot days, no place to cool off. Most likely the ride will have to close during winter, as most water rides in Western European themeparks do.

In other news:
- This week 3 March - 9 March Disneyland Paris experiments with 2 evening shows in the main park. No fireworks, but you will get the rest.
- Also introducing a 19 euro ticket to see the fireworks from a reserved spot.
