Ye-haa! There’s fresh paint all over at Frontierland! Whilst Disneyland Resort Paris continue to use the “More dreams, more hugs, more wow!” tagline for the 15th Anniversary, for fans this year will no doubt also be remembered for “More refurbs, more details, more wow!”. The town of Thunder Mesa, fallen almost into ruin back when Jay Rasulo was sheriff, appears to have found itself a brand new lucky nugget…

Those rumours (or rather aspirations) that the Formula-1 French Grand Prix could be heading to Disneyland Resort Paris continue to simmer away, but another (albeit less major) sporting event has been confirmed for the 2008 season. Long after the 15th Anniversary Celebration rolls up its red carpet, Disney Village is scheduled to host a new European Festival of Martial Arts - with streetmosphere and special events for regular guests.

The official partners of Disneyland Resort Paris and Euro Disney SCA have suddenly been spurred into action during recent months. Following the Ford sponsorship of Autopia and the Unilever/Ben & Jerry’s takeovers of several ice cream and food locations, it’s time once again for Coca-Cola to splash some cash (and their branding) over another “new” refreshments retail - their fifth in recent years!

Some tragic news from Disneyland Resort Paris has been spreading across several news sources this morning. A 14-year old Spanish girl was found unconscious after riding Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster starring Aerosmith yesterday, and although the park’s medical teams rushed to revive her, the girl had already passed away when an ambulance arrived. The attraction closed immediately and will remain closed until the exact cause of death has been determined.

The Queen of the River has returned! Over two years since a fatal incident caused her to be stranded in the Rivers of the Far West, the Molly Brown riverboat is now proudly sailing the waters of Frontierland every day this Summer. A proud return for an “unsinkable” legend, in the park’s 15th Anniversary year.

The varied ensemble of Hollywood Boulevard buildings around the mighty Tower of Terror continues to provide us with an excellent supporting cast for the main player. Brilliant to watch, ever-changing and sometimes quite unpredictable - construction has taken another huge leap since our last update just a couple of weeks ago.

One of the most important aspects of a press event at Disneyland Resort Paris is the material the resort gives to its invited press and journalists. If they produce good quality work, they’re more likely to be given a mention in various media across Europe. With that in mind, we’re looking at the final fruits of the press event - the full set of publicity photos - and you can tell us how well they did…

Chances to see Walt Disney Studios Park in darkness are usually restricted to the cold Winter months, when the limited sun sets in the afternoon and guests are treated to the park at its very best, illuminated by colourful studio lighting from all angles.

Another year, another flashy attraction ‘inauguration’ ceremony… times at Disneyland Resort Paris have certainly changed! Whilst Tower of Terror may have loomed ahead with its size and stature, it was always the “Toons” project that seemed the most interesting from the 2005 announcement. Over two years on, it’s here, it’s complete, and it’s time to experience the grand opening…

16th June 2007. This past Saturday, the morning of the Toon Studio Press Event, guests entered Walt Disney Studios Park under the shadow of cloudy skies - the Disneyland Resort Paris press event curse had struck again!
