Okay, so today we've gone over all our options: Orlando, Paris, Shanghai, and Hong Kong. Each of these have their own strengths and weakness. I will summarize.

WDW
  • The 50th for the entire resort + Magic Kingdom: overall a massive year, should have a massive celebration.
  • Most of the team feels most familiar with this resort, requiring less research than usual.
  • Downside is it's a pretty obvious choice compared to the others.
PARIS
  • Both DLP's 30th and Studios' 20th, giving us a double anniversary! We can work in both parks.
  • Paris has Discoveryland, nuff said.
  • The Studios is ripe for better entertainment.
SHANGHAI
  • This would only be the 5th anniversary, so not as special as some of the others.
  • Zootopia will be opening this year, which could tie nicely to celebrations.
HONG KONG
  • Many new attractions will be open by the 20th anniversary in 2025.
  • The park has struggled in the past, which gives Disney justification for cashing all-in with this anniversary.
Honestly... they all look really good! Judging them all unbiasedly, I'd have to say Paris and Hong Kong look like the two best choices, just in the lack of any real cons so far. I think if we all voted tomorrow and got an overall focus decided, we will be in a good position to develop the project in four days time!

I don't know if it is just because I worked at WDW for so long but the idea of working in that park really does feel safe and kinda boring. I know there is amazing stuff we can do there because of it so I am giving it my #2 vote but I really loved the idea of a double Paris celebration because what is more over the top than a celebration spanning both parks just as huge.

One thing we also need to do is decide a PM. I can totally take charge here unless there is someone who is "chomping at the bit" to be PM. I have been to a few of these anniversary celebrations so know what to expect.
I have no problem with you taking it.

Personally, I’m not huge into this project, so I have no issues with someone else taking PM haha.

My first vote is for Paris, and my second is for WDW.

Right now, following the 5-4 points system (5 points for first-choice votes, 4 for second-choice votes), here's where we stand right now:
  1. Disneyland Paris (30th/20th Anniversary) - 38 points
  2. Walt Disney World (50th Anniversary) - 31 points
  3. Shanghai Disneyland (5th Anniversary) - 8 points

Here's the updated poll with @DashHaber's votes.

Pack your suitcases, everyone. We're going to Paris.

I managed to create some logos for the twin celebrations at the resort. The 30th logo and color scheme is a combination of the ones used in the 20th Anniversary and the 25th Anniversary posters. To create synergy between the two anniversaries, I just replicated the design for Disneyland Park's 30th for WDSP's 20th (with some changes). Funnily enough, I subconsciously chose each park's logos' color schemes for our own.
