Castle.  Central Plaza will be the stage for a spectacular
tribute to everyone�s favourite Disney Princesses, while
Sleeping Beauty Castle and its surroundings will be covered in
snow for the very first time.

Snowflakes
will gently fall on Main Street, U.S.A. throughout the day,
fulfilling the dreams of everyone wishing for a white Christmas
this year.

The all-new
Christmas Parade will be unveiled every day by Mickey
Mouse and friends when they open celebrations with a giant
musical box!  A host of famous Disney couples in sparkling
seasonal costumes and characters will follow behind, spreading
Christmas joy to all.

Family
favourites such as Mickey�s Winter Wonderland at
Chaparral Theater, Le N�el de Mickey at Fantasy Festival
Stage and Belle�s Christmas Village in Fantasyland
return to Disneyland Park this season, with winter evenings lit
up by the spectacular night-time parade that sees Disney
Characters, tales and legends bought to life in an
extraordinary combination of state-of �the-art visual and sound
effects: Disney�s Fantillusion.

Christmas
nights in Disneyland Park come to a magical end this year with
the all-new Enchanted Fairytale Ceremony.  At the foot
of Sleeping Beauty Castle on Main Street, U.S.A.,
Aurora,

Snow White,
Belle and Cinderella, each accompanied by their handsome
Prince, will carry guests into a fabulous fable that combines
music, dance, light and fantasy.  The finishing touch that
crowns the ceremony will be given by Tinker Bell.  With a wave
of her magic wand, a burst of pixie dust will bring Sleeping
Beauty Castle to colourful life in a spectacular array of
twinkling lights.




 



A Hollywood Christmas at Walt Disney Studios Park


Throughout the festive season,
Walt Disney Studios Park will welcome guests to a world full of
surprises

This year,
Father Christmas will play a starring role in the Stunt Show
Spectacular

match for his sleigh riding skills, so guests can meet him in
the Backlot for a souvenir photo.

It rains all
year round at the �Singing in the Rain� photo location, but at
Christmas, it snows!  Guests should be aware that mischievous
Disney characters might be lying in wait for them�

Walt Disney
Studios Park is the dream location for guests who wish to meet
Disney Characters, all dressed up for the festive occasion.  At
the entrance to the Park, an unexpected Father Christmas and
his out-of-the-ordinary sleigh will welcome visitors� In fact,
it�s Goofy in disguise, and guests can have a souvenir photo
taken with him next to a Cadillac-sleigh that�s literally
overflowing with presents. 

There�ll also
be a Santa Claus Choir spreading good will that will start the
day in Rendezvous Des Stars restaurant, and finish in
Disney Studio 1
, as well as a host of other surprises just
waiting to be discovered�
