Remember all those times when you dressed up as your favourite Disney princess? Well, now, see them live in front of your eyes! Find Ariel waving at you, Jasmine smiling with Aladdin by her side and Alice looking as lost as she was in Wonderland!

Not just princesses, look out for Winnie the Pooh and his legion of faithful friends, watch Darth Vader being serious as ever, Spider-Man showing off his heroics and many other Disney favourites bringing out the young fan-kid in you. Oh! And don’t forget to pose with Mickey Mouse as well.

Time to Jazz It Up!

Block your calendars on the 15th of June from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m. and sign up for the Disney Loves Jazz, Soiree of Jazz at Disneyland Paris! The eclectic atmosphere would charge you up like no other and if you need some extra motivation, they have China Moses, Hugh Coltman and Thomas Dutronc hosting the concert. Beat that!

Fuel Up at The Disney Village
