I clicked on Park Hours to see which attractions will be closed on the 19/12/2016, and the closed attractions are the following:

  • Railroad Station Fantasy section
  • Railroad Station Discovery Station
And star tours....
Hope this helps!

Has anyone seen the progress on the mountain lately? I wonder if they've already started filling the river or will do soon? It must take some time to fill!

Be the 1st time my whole family go can actually all ride this together, as every time we've visited one of our kids have been too small and its take in turns. Gonna make the most of this come next Feb.
Disneyland Paris is a beautiful place, a dream,
somewhere where you act like a child again and
forget about whats going on for a while.....

Forgive me for asking, but what's a 'soft' opening? We'll be at DLP from 12th Dec so really hoping this means I'll get to ride...!

Soft openings are when the attraction operates on a limited basis, usually unnanounced and at random times of the day. Its so they can test out how the attraction will fare with regular guests.

There's no guarentee it will be open, and you may see Big Thunder running but with signs indicating it is closed. Usually they just allow a certain amount of guests, who happen to be passing by to experience it.

So, don't set your heart on definately going on it, but you never know they may just happen to be running soft openings when you are there.  :)
