For the third year in a row, Disneyland Paris celebrated its heritage and showcased the creativity and artistry that goes on behind-the-scenes as part of its Heritage Days. This year, the opportunity was virtual and accessible to all fans!

Through exclusive videos, guests discovered the secrets of the costumes worn by famous Audio-Animatronics® figures and the artistic influences of Disneyland Paris through a short guided video tour of Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios Park, including Sleeping Beauty’s Castle, Discoveryland and Place de Remy. The tour provides an unprecedented spotlight on the technical know-how inherent to the resort. These videos are now available on the Disneyland Paris at Home website.

Additionally, via Disneyland Paris’ Instagram, guests discovered an exhibition dedicated to past and present shows at Disneyland Paris, with many costumes and models presented by one of our Show Directors. During this session, Instagram followers had the opportunity to ask questions, which were answered live!

And for even more free family fun from Disneyland Paris, “Disneyland Paris at Home” offers families and fans entertaining games, activities, tutorial videos, step-by-step themed recipes, videos revealing some of Disneyland Paris’ secrets and many other surprises to spark imagination, inspire creativity and share the magic – all from the comfort of home anywhere in the world.

“Disneyland Paris at Home” is available in French, English, Italian, Spanish, German and Dutch and new content continues to be regularly added!

Ahoy, me Disney-lovin’ hearties! We’re weighing anchor on our celebration of “International Talk Like a Pirate Day” with a treasure chest o’ photos featuring the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction- past and present – from ‘round the world. 

Avast! Whether it’s swabbies walkin’ the plank at Disneyland Resort or me mateys hoisting the colors at Disneyland Paris, everyone – even a landlubber – says “YAR” when sailing The Pirates of the Caribbean.  So, for this special day, we be diggin’ o’er and under to spy Pirates magic for everyone at home! 

Dead men who “tell no tales” started talkin’ at this classic attraction at Disneyland Resort in 1967.  And ye may not know but Disney Imagineer X Atencio, who wrote “Yo-Ho (A Pirate’s Life for Me),” is the voice of the Jolly Roger skull and crossbones, before ye plunge down the first waterfall.

At Disneyland Paris, adventurers make two plunges down waterfalls during voyages that include a variety of scallywags and swashbuckling buccaneers.  Few pirate fans know that dialogue for the main characters, such as the auctioneer and pirate captains, is in French and others speak English and Spanish.

From a face-to-face with some of the world’s saltiest sea dogs to dreaming of doubloons, you’ll surely “shiver ye timbers” during a Pirates of the Caribbean adventure at Shanghai Disney Resort. And hold on to ye eye patch – each vessel twists, twirls and steers backwards while navigating treacherous waters!

Beware!  It’s a pirate’s life for you when taking a voyage to the 17th century with rowdy rogues and ruthless rapscallions at the Walt Disney World Resort. Be sure to keep a spry eye out for Captain Jack Sparrow during each adventure. 

If ye be seekin’ adventure, ay—you’ve found gold when riding Pirates of the Caribbean at Tokyo Disney Resort. Your voyage to a time when pirates and privateers ruled the seas offers special thrills with cannonballs flying across your boat and other pirate experiences. 

And as extra booty today, you can board ye own pirate ship and set sail for a raucous adventure on Pirates of the Caribbean at Disneyland park with our recently shared #DisneyMagicMoments Ride & Learn adventure. 

We hope you enjoyed our special celebration of Pirates of Caribbean favorites from around the world!  Be sure to check back for more of these types of stories on our special #DisneyMagicMoments page on the Disney Parks Blog.
