Stitch Live, The Tower of Terror, Cars Rally.....generally the improvements to WDS (indifferent about Crushs Coaster)

But most of all, I love the fact that I was actually there  :D/

I really liked that they ran the whole place like it was a disney resort in the USA! With all the new stuff and great advertising... :)

My favourite memory of the 15th and it was pure luck that we happened to be there on the launch day is of the special Candelabration with Lumiere on stage and the wonderful firework display that ended the evening. :-)
We didn't manage to visit WDS on either of our trips during the 15th so I'm also very grateful that it's given me lots of wonderful new attractions to look forward to in March.  :D/

The most favourite thing of the 15th was definately the (Enchanted) Candleabration!! :) As I've never seen any lightning ceremony before, I always had tears in my eyes when I saw the show... the music, the atmosphere in the dark, the Characters, the lit up castle - sooo enchanting  :lamp:

I also loved the Characters Express and the decorations in the park :)! And the Once Upon A Dream Parade of course, which will fortunately remain!
Oh, and I'm glad we got Crush's Coaster at WDS - although I was much disappointed by it last December because it broke down too much, the queues were too long and so I couldn't ride it again :(!

Hey,

I think my favourite thing was the character Express as I love meeting characters and it meant it made it easier to do so.
I also loved the Mary poppins show & the massive changes to the Walt Disney Studios as it now is much fuller and far more exciting.

I've got so many fond memories:

-Being there for the press day and the launch of the 15th celebration where they released loads of balloons in front of the castle and a mini parade, although we did have to wait two hours in the rain to see it! (If anyone wants to see pictures just let me know)

- The parade, still gives me goosebumps just thinking about the music!

- How beautiful the castle looks, although I am looking forward to seeing the stained glass window once again.

- The very first Candleabration, couldn't see a thing because it was soooo light, but still exciting. The best Candleabration I saw was when we went in October, because it was in the dark!

- The first Alphabetyouare. The costumes were really clean (we went back in September that year and they were filthy!) We also had no idea what it was and just saw it on the new maps, and I managed to take a photo at exactly the right time!!

- The character express and touts en train, possibly the best music ever!!!!

Hah :P, everytime me and my family went in the Disneyland Park, we heard the Character Express tune lol :D

I love how the studios looks a lot better and has more attractions! :D

Hi,

Can anybody please advise me when the Anniversary is finishing? We are visiting DLRP on 24 March and I know the new campaign is starting on 4th April. Wondering if we are still going to feel any of the magic???

Unfortunately, it ends this Saturday, so you won't see any of the 15th celebrations I'm afraid. You might be lucky enough to get a preview of Mickey's Magical Party though :)

My favourite thing was having gone once they carried the party on for a second year and I could go enjoy it all over again.
