Let the Magic Shine: DLP's 30th Anniversary

[montydysquith-navarro]

In MSUSA Train Station news, the giant 30th medallion is back. I think we could safely say that the station is ready for next week's launch, and the windows will remain uncovered!

Indeed! That is plenty for the gazebo as far as I'm concerned and even fits the theme of Town Square and Main Street USA nicely.

I get they may also want to include the medallions which is also manageable, but not sure why they're so keen on messing with the lovely roof and overall design of the gazebo.

It also helps that the drapes also continued down Main Street, a la Disneyland.

Putting this in a spoiler just in case:

Spoiler: Disney D-Lights

The drones are now being rehearsed on-site after park hours. Good thing the Disneyland Hotel is being refurbished so fewer spoilers!

I too think they went overboard with the gazebo and train station.

Less is definitely more in this case, especially after putting in all that effort to restore both structures.

They look fantastic! Love the colors.

Here are more photos of the recently-installed batch:






The 30th Anniversary displays on the Main Street Emporium windows have been unveiled as well. Still a work-in-progress!

When I look again, I agree. A smaller logo on the train station would have been a wiser choice.

I think I like those sculptures! Will have to see them in person. One thing I do like about them and DLP decorations in general is that these look like human beings put some thought into designing and assembling them rather than them being spat out of a machine. For example, there seems a lot more thought than was put into the 50 (but not really) gold character statues even if it's smaller scale.

I very much do like the new windows on Main Street! Nice to see them using the new attraction artwork (and wallpaper!) they designed for the anniversary.

The gazebo overlay is finally complete with the addition of the iridescent drapes on the roof:



Meanwhile, the Gardens of Wonder continues to grow:

The Gazebo....looks a bit mismatched? It doesn't really seem to go go together, and the overuse of different reflective materials makes it really depend on what angle and light you get! Maybe something better in person than a camera can pick up?

The Gardens of Wonder are looking really cool actually! Quite like them, better than the Mickey cupcakes for Mickey's 90th for sure!

The Gardens of wonder are looking better as they get developed further:

DLP just posted a sneak preview of the windmill-type medallions on the MSUSA train station in action.

It’s all happening this evening. Soft opening of the new hub parade / show today (very Tokyo-esq again) and the gardens of wonder is coming alive as the sun goes down.

I’ve just seen a non linkable 4K video of both pre and post show.

Wait until they hit YouTube. Stunning.

De la Terre à la Lune and le Vis music?

Congratulations Disneyland Paris on being the first Disney Park to properly do drones.

Strongly prefer this over the short-lived "Starlight Holidays" at Disney Springs from 2016.
