Offer alert: Save 30% and kids under 12 go free ends 28th March!

Disneyland Paris Special Offer

If you don’t want to miss the extended Disneyland Paris 20th Anniversary, you most likely don’t want to miss an official special offer either.

So here’s your heads-up that the current UK deal — Up To 30% Off + Free For Kids Under 12 — ends this week, on Thursday 28th March to be precise.

What’s unusual about this deal — and particularly good for families — is that it extends the “Kids Under 12″ offer beyond its usual winter confines. You’d only normally see kids under 7 getting free hotel accommodation and park tickets in the spring and summer months, so the chance to not pay a thing for under 12s right through to 31st August 2013 — and even during school holidays — might come as a real bonus, especially with 30% off on top.

You can find even more Disneyland Paris Special Offers on our dedicated pages.

We only share official Disneyland Paris offers and links for Disney Hotel packages and park tickets, which always take you to the official website to book. Use these links and DLRPMagic.com will benefit, which means we can keep providing more updates, news, photos and videos!

Over half a million ‘Disney Dreams!’ come true on our YouTube Channel

Disney Dreams! at Disneyland Paris

Thank you! In less than a year, our first HD video of Disney Dreams! at Disneyland Paris has been viewed over half a million times. The current tally on our YouTube Channel stands at a simply astonishing 510,879 views. Purely testament to the sheer quality of this stunning show.

So now, as we prepare to welcome a brand new version of the nighttime spectacular for the extended 20th Anniversary this weekend, with new scenes for “Brave” and “The Lion King”, plus other surprises, let’s enjoy the original show all over again with a different video.

This one, from the very first public performance on 1st April 2012, has all the atmosphere of the energised crowd and a closer “front row” view of all the fountains and effects.

California Grill & 10 more Disneyland Paris menus updated

Disneyland Paris Restaurant Menus

The new spring season of late March and early April normally brings refreshes to most Disneyland Paris restaurant menus, but until then we’ve been getting the current pages up to speed with a slate of updates from the winter season to help you plan your impending trip:

…And there are more to follow, so watch this space.

Menus are normally updated at least once in March/April and some, normally only high-class Table Service which use seasonal ingredients, are additionally updated in November/December.

If you’ve spotted an updated menu whilst you’re at the resort, you can help us out by snapping a photo and sending it to us at our direct email address, in the biggest size possible (so we can read and check all the details!). There are 62 menus to keep on top of, so this is no mean feat!

As always — bon appetit!

Christmas comes early! December Park Hours, January Closures

Christmas Winter Season at Disneyland Paris

‘Tis the season… to plan your winter break to Disneyland Paris! That task is made easier now Disney have confirmed important details for the months ahead, which you can find in our comprehensive Calendar section.

Monthly Park Hours are now available for the whole of December 2012, including New Year’s Eve at both Disney Parks — with fireworks at midnight and rides until 1am!

Closures & Refurbishments meanwhile now extend right through to January 2013. We’re always the first place to find these dates for the months ahead, and now you can check attraction closures during your New Year getaway.

Particularly interesting might be the long closure of Pirates of Caribbean — currently scheduled at least right up to the end of January. The attraction has been rumoured to receive technical upgrades and enhancements for some time.

Winter dates! November park hours, first December closures

Autumn/Winter in Discoveryland

It’s a double Calendar update today for your winter Disneyland Paris trip planning…

First, park opening hours for November 2012 reveal a schedule broadly similar to November 2011, with shorter weekday operation and some very long weekend hours, such as 9am to 10pm. This 9am opening, rather than standard 10am, could be a sign of how busy these winter weekends at Disneyland Paris have become, taking an hour out of Extra Magic Hours to spread the arrival of guests (who may also be more inclined to arrive and leave earlier with these colder days).

Second, the very latest Closures & Refurbishments updates, now including the schedule right up to December 2012. There’s more good news for Captain EO fans: Michael Jackson will be back to “change the world” again on certain dates in December. Meanwhile, seasonal curtailed operation of both Autopia and Armageddon: Les Effets Speciaux continues up until the Christmas holiday period.

Look out for some exciting improvements to our Calendar section soon, including an expanded Special Offers section and a new day-by-day park schedule guide!

New HD video: Phantom Manor complete ridethrough

Phantom Manor

Where hinges creak in door-less chambers…

Just in time for Disney’s Halloween Festival, we invite you to step inside Phantom Manor in Frontierland with our brand new 13-minute complete ridethrough video.

Replacing our previous video filmed in 2007, this new High Definition video now includes the attraction’s famous “stretchroom” pre-show and begins with a haunting twilight walk through the grounds of this Old West mansion.

Captain EO to re-open in October AND November 2012!

Captain EO

We’ve now unfortunately again become accustomed to River Rogue Keelboats being listed as a perpetual “Closed” on refurbishment schedules, but the spell on another long closure has finally been lifted. Captain EO will make a surprise return to the Disneyland Park attraction line-up this October, re-opening Saturdays to Tuesdays throughout the month!

Though considered unlikely to ever re-open again at Disneyland Paris due to low guest reaction, the veteran Discoveryland theatre show was previously rumoured for a high-season Summer return. This never materialised, but instead an Autumn and Winter return is now confirmed: for both October AND November, when it will continue to be open all days except Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays (with a small respite for 7th to 9th November).

Perhaps figures revealed that the heated, indoor attraction starring Michael Jackson in his 1986 heyday become noticeably more attractive to guests in the colder months?

Rediscover the attraction (all over again!) on our dedicated Guidebook page.

Mad Hatter's Tea Cups

With a certain group of attractions now frequently appearing as closed on select weekdays, this leaves Mad Hatter’s Tea Cups, CinéMagique, Art of Disney Animation and Space Mountain: Mission 2 as the only true refurbishment closures during the first month of Disney’s Enchanted Christmas at the resort.

Other recent Calendar updates to help you plan your upcoming trips include Park Hours for October 2012 and Hotel Pool Refurbishments through 2013.
