Michael Jackson was a regular guest of Euro Disney for the first 5 years. Every stay he would reside in the Sleeping Beauty Suite of the Disneyland Hotel.
His signature under the grand piano was visible right up until it’s closure. I was lucky enough to see it for myself.

The show ‘Zorro Under the Sign of Night’ ran from 1992 - 1993 but was ultimately cancelled by parks ops due to the crowds blocking guest flow.

The continued self sabotage of this area.
In this space you have already stepped into Main Street USA. The architecture, the music, the steam train that passes you by (and once the sign itself) all took you there.
This area is NOT the esplanade, that’s out front folks.
⚠️ The new plaque in front of Main Street Station has been unveiled. It is a Sleeping Beauty Castle design:

On 26 May 1994, the Marne-la-Vallée – Chessy TGV station opened. This train station has now become the biggest TGV hub in France, serving 54 French and international cities daily.

Disney’s Hotel Santa Fe when opening in 1992 featured the ‘Anasazi Ruins playground’.
The playground resembled the ruins of an ancient Anasazi village. The Anasazi ruins are the modern day remnants of the first known civilization in Santa Fe.

Just to put this into perspective;
This attraction now has 4 points of entry for guests. Standby, Single Rider, Accessibility and Premier Access.
All from an attraction that couldn’t sustain good operations with just standby previously.
This is a disaster.
💳 Disney Premier Access has just opened at Crush’s Coaster, with the first slot at 2pm.
It’s priced at €13, similar to the top tier attraction for today (Big Thunder Mountain and Hyperspace Mountain). If it remains in that tier, it could go up to €18 on peak days.
