Tomorrow sees the long-awaited return of the Summer Magic season in Disneyland Resort Paris, with the parks' largest ever entertainment offering and late-night Disneyland Park opening presented along with a few special new treats for 2006."/>
In 2005, the Happiest Celebration On Earth allowed Disneyland Resort Paris to launch the new Wishes Nighttime Spectacular under the umbrella of a new, specific seasonal event. After the success of the Halloween, Christmas and Carnival seasons in dispersing crowds throughout the year, it seemed more effort was needed for the Summer season to remain profitable for the resort. And so, Summer Magic was born.
Here are this year’s most talked-about Summer Magic events, which we’ll no doubt be covering in much more detail over the next seven days:
Wishes Nighttime Spectacular
The controversial nighttime spectacular returns for a second season, from 15th July. Labelled “controversial” because its over-reliance on projections and special effects caused many fans to raise criticisms about a shortage of fireworks. Whilst new special effects were mentioned in official Annual Passport magazine “Envie de +”, initial reports suggest the show has remained almost identical to the 2005 version.
