Disneyland Paris Frontierland Re-Open - And Rivers of The Far-West Geysers Are Back, At Last !



After more than 13 months of renovation, Disneyland Paris Big Thunder Mountain had its re-opening ceremony Saturday December 17 and Max, D&M contributor and DLPWelcome webmaster shot pictures for you, but before, an important note for my FRENCH readers: Please don't miss the important message at the end of the article!

It's Daniel Delcourt, from DLP Operations who did the re-opening ceremony and sent all his thanks to the team thanks to whom DLP Frontierland shines again like it never did since opening day! Mickey and Minnie were with him to symbolically cut the ribbon!




Here is the video of the reopening ceremony.




As i said in my previous update the result of Big Thunder Mountain renovation is stunning! All props, animated or not, are back. And the adventure is even more epic due to the explosive final of the ride. The cleaned, repainted and colourful mountain looks better than ever with new vegetation and effects fully reviewed. The theme of the whole ride has been strengthened for our biggest pleasure! Below, new pictures and the video of the full ride.












A special commemorative issue of the Thunder Mesa Daily Messengerwas released on this special day!




















But there is also something new which didn't exist before, and it's a new building which hide the tanks of Co2 needed for the new explosive final of the ride. Good shelling, it looks like it has always been there!









It's not only Big Thunder Mountain which reopened last Saturday, but also the Rivers of the Far-West and the Molly Brown! 

Here, too, the renovation efforts were considerable. All has been redone, the work is simply remarkable and the highlight of the show are the geysers. which are back, at last! Wonderful quality of execution and the return of effects… more than 10 years after their disappearance. We discover all details, all elements, all the geysers… For the visitors the show experience is better than ever!

























Here is a third great video in which you'll discover the new geysers effects!





And now, here is the IMPORTANT MESSAGE for my french readers, and specifically those who don't own yet the Disneyland Paris book: 

NOTE IMPORTANTE A L'ATTENTION DE CEUX QUI NE POSSEDENT PAS ENCORE LE LIVRE "DE L'ESQUISSE A LA CREATION": Il reste environ 60 exemplaires de cette édition collector française du livre, qui ne sera pas rééditée car c'était une édition limitée à 2000 exemplaires. En conséquence et compte tenu que l'offre spéciale de Noel court toujours ( voir ci-dessous ) 30 exemplaires ( sur les 60 restant ) peuvent toujours bénéficier de l'offre spéciale de Noel à 60 euros, et les 30 derniers exemplaires seront vendus au prix normal du livre, 100 euros. Il n'y aura donc PAS de nouvelle promotion et je ne saurais que trop conseiller à ceux qui n'ont pas encore le livre de profiter de l'offre de Noel tant qu'il en reste!

Disneyland Paris Update : Works Begin on Frontierland Big Thunder Mountain and Rivers of the Far-West Geysers


Here is a new Disneyland Paris update and, that's it the long refurbishment on Big Thunder Mountain and Rivers of the Far-West Geysers has finally started and will last until ...January 2017 ! Not only Big Thunder Mountain and the arch will be repainted but the geysers which were not working since many years should work at last again when this long renovation will be over, and that's a damn' good news!

Thanks to Max, D&M collaborator and DLPWelcome webmaster we have the first pictures and right now they're installing a "life base camp" for the workers as well as a walkway over the water to access easily Big Thunder Mountain. This is done in the back, near the geysers so not really visible by DLP guests although they probably can see it from Phantom Manor graveyard which will be a good viewpoint to observe the works in the coming months if they don't put fences there...







The base camp which will serve for the workers.


Below, the walkway over the water and the "stone" arch which will be repainted.


For those of you who don't know it yet DLP Big Thunder Mountain will get the new finale in the last lift with explosion projection mapping, just like at Disneyland!


At the entrance of the park the works on the new ground in Fantasia Gardens is finished on the right part and i have to say that it looks nice.



As guests go through the park entrance they instantly notice the huge scaffoldings of Main Street USA Station. The renovation of the station is done to redesign the queue, to update the sound system, lighting, restore the organ, woodwork, carpentry, roofing and stairs, and of course also paintings, and this will last until September 2016. On the ground floor, the lockers unused since 15 years will be replaced by benches and a new ground to avoid any risk of falling which apparently existed with the current one.



Tomorrow Oct 31 is the big day for the awaited Halloween Party and the "Halloween Disco - Very Dance Party" will happen in the back of Discoveryland. Max has pictures of the structures being installed and soon ready to receive all the equipments for the nightclub with bubble machine, smoke, flames, and spotlights.





So, happy Halloween to everyone and see you soon for a new DLP update! In the meantime, i remind you that the Disneyland Paris "From Sketch to Reality" book is still available but may be not for long as the stock is very low now, so if you don't own yet this beautiful book, it's really better to order it now.


Price for one copy in English updated edition or French Collector's edition is 75€ + 15€ shipping worldwide. You can order the book easily by sending me an email at: neverlandeditions@gmail.com

Paypal, bank transfer or credit card payment are accepted. If you want to pay with Paypal you can also send directly the 90 euros to:  neverlandeditions@gmail.com

As the Euro is iterally crashing since months it also mean that the book is now at its best price ever for our American friends! It really is the best time ever to order the book as you save money too thanks to the Euro / $US change rate!

To order your copy just send me an email at: neverlandeditions@gmail.com and specify if you want an english or french edition.

Note: If you want to order a French edition don't use the Paypal button below which seems, for unknown reasons, to don't work for an order of french copies ( the Paypal button works fine for an order of English copies ). If it don't work send me an email or send directly the 75€ from your Paypal account to: neverlandeditions@gmail.com
