Title: Beauty and the Beast at Disneyland Paris?
Post by: BroadwayBelle on May 20, 2009, 02:01:01 AM
My all-time favorite movie is Beauty and the Beast and being that it takes place in France, I was wondering if there was anything special at Disneyland Paris from the film.
One of the only spots where Belle is guaranteed to do meet-and-greets at the Walt Disney World Resort is at Epcot in the France Pavilion - is there anything similar in either of the parks at Disneyland Paris?  A themed spot where any of the Beauty and the Beast characters conduct meet and greets, or perhaps a character meal which features any of the characters?  It is also pretty rare to find Beauty and the Beast merchandise in the U.S. - anything special in Paris?

Sadly, no.  There's a Princess meet 'n' greet area on the Royal Castle Stage, but they switch princesses throughout the day, so it's not always a guarantee you'll meet Belle.  

There's also the Auberge de Cendrillon, a sit down restaurant with Princesses meet 'n' greets where Belle and sometimes Beast Prince will come by.

And then there's Gaston, who is part of Disney Stars 'n' Cars at Walt Disney Studios Park.  

Don't count on special Beauty and the Beast merchandise.

Oh, and don't forget the Beast Castle is the centerpiece of Story Book Land at the back of Fantasyland.  :)

If you are a big B&tB fan, best to come at christmastime where we have the Belle village (as said) and often a little show with the Villagers, then the Belle, Beast (Bette in French) and Gaston meet and greets.

Gaston is often in the Halloween celebrations too.

ive just seen you are over for Halloween so you will miss Belles village, you will still be able to see her everyday in the Once upon A Dream parade with the Beast.

In the early years there was a Beauty and the Beast Show in Discoveryland/Videopolis. It was a great show, I loved it!

That ended years ago, sadly  :(
