Today in Disney Parks and Resorts History - Disneyland Paris
Euro Disneyland (today
known as Disneyland Paris)
Marne-La-Vallee, France
Euro Disneyland officially opens in Paris' eastern suburb of Marne-La-Vallee and inaugural ceremonies
are broadcast to the entire European continent by five national television networks.
Preparations and initial estimates
indicated up to 500,000 visitors would arrive, but only y 50,000 are admitted due
to protests from French people who fear their culture will be hijacked and
damaged by the Disney park and its Americanized products and experiences. Blacking out
road signs to the resort on surrounding roads, power cables are vandalized by
some citizens among other disruptive behavior. The fourth Magic Kingdom style
park is only part of the new resort, which also includes Festival Disney, a
shopping and dining area, as well as five hotels: Hotel
Cheyenne, Santa Fe, Newport Bay Club, Hotel New York and Disneyland Hotel as well as Davy
Crockett Ranch, a campground resort located several miles away from the main
resort area. Disneyland Hotel is situated directly in front of the main entrance
to the newest Disneyland theme park, with many resort rooms directly
overlooking the theme park itself.
