Even with a big money pit still to fill, and the difficult financial times so many are witnessing, EuroDisney S.C.A. revenue is growing as we can see in the first quarter of this fiscal year. The biggest growth is the Hotels and Disney Village revenue. Here EuroDisney S.C.A. Sees an increase of a wealthy 14%. This because of an increase of 5,6% in hotel occupancy and a 7% increase in average spending per room. This translates in more filled rooms with more guests that have spend more to stay as was the case in the previous year.
Park revenue has also gone up. Numbers aren’t that high but still positive. A 3% revenue increase compared to the previous year. This comes from a 2% increase in park spending per guests and the 1% increase in visitors. Visitors from the United Kingdom and the Netherlands have decreased, but extra visitors from France and Belgium made sure that this loss has been compensated into a positive number. (more…)

Never leave one behind alone – a golden rule among most armies in this world, and one may remember the Toy Story scene when on of the Toy Soldiers asked the other members of his unit to leave him behind for the sake of the good task they had to fulfill – but of course that never happened.
But in contrast to this rule the Toy Soldier Parachute Drop was the first of the ToyStory Playland attractions with a dedicated single rider line – for one soldier alone.

You can already see the Christmas decorations at the front of Studio 1 with some lights, decorations at the shop and the transformed photo opportunity car to a real Christmas car, but the big lot of decorations can be found back inside the studio 1 building.
Inside Studio 1 you will find – as every year - tons of decorations on the walls and on top of buildings, including some “golden” trees on top of the restaurant reservations building, green Christmas trees on top of the Schwab’s Pharmacy building, Christmas lights against the many facades and Christmas tinsels enhancing the studios to the fullest.

Who would win the battle? The Sorcerer’s Apprentice with his magic or Tron and the technology? We will never know, unless they’ll make a crossover of the two Disney movies. Of course this will never happen so the only time we will see them side by side is when you walk inside the Walt Disney Studios. (more…)

The Blockbuster cafe at the Walt Disney Studios has added new and big menu boards outside of the building. The boards are carrying a metal covered frame, orange lettering and a black background trying to fit in with the restaurants themeing. The choices on the menu are shown in colorful ways.
The healthy salads are on the top and have a green background. Just below it, in flashy orange, you can find the burgers and sandwiches. Underneath of the sandwich choices you’ll get the sweets and ices creams.
An icy blue is used as the background while the last color red is used on the lower part of the boards to show the choices of beverages you can get, including a tea time souvenir mug.

I’m sure we’ve all done it before, eat in front of the TV during one of our favorite shows we didn’t want to miss. Can you remember when you last had a meal while watching a Disney classic… Wasn’t that long ago was it?
Now you do it the other way around. Instead of eating in front of the TV, eat what you see on the TV in the En Coulisse restaurant in the Walt Disney Studios. New monitors are now showing you a menu to choose from. Gaze at the monitors, pick something you like and even point it out to the castmembers if you want. But you have to be fast enough as the monitors do switch the full menu to a picture of one of the choices on that menu. Main reason for this might be so the one picture would not burn in to the monitors screen (depending on the monitor and technology used this can still be a problem to some screens). Enjoy your television meal!

It’s all in the details and Disney proofs this time and time again. Just look at the news about the new Toy Story Playland we brought you here during the last couple of days. How important it is to Disney and the Imagineers to create a perfect experience can be seen in the many details they look after when designing the attractions and the general themeing of an area. Some of these details might not be that visual and other are created to take care of an annoying side effect. A good example for the latter case can be found in the waiting areas of the Slinky Dog ZigZag Spin as well as the Toy Soldiers Parachute Drop… (more…)

Walt Disney wanted to create a place where parents and children could play together, a place where parents wouldn’t have to sit down and wait until the children are done riding the merry-go-round. Now you find Disney parks all over the world where you can share the fun on the rides together, Where parents and children can ride together, where nobody has to sit on the side,… unless you’re not tall enough!
Some children wouldn’t want to go on these “scary” attractions, others are disappointed when they are turned down at the entrance of these attractions. So what’s the best solution when you can’t ride? Go shopping!
You can take a souvenir bobble head home reminding you how tall you have to be before you can go on the ride. A nice Idea for the children still waiting to grow bigger, but also nice for the Disney Park collectors who just like attraction novelties. The little one might not been able to ride, but with the new toy they can look forwards to the next visit when they see they hit the right hight.
