The most recent events affected by Coronavirus at Disneyland Paris are the ‘Pride’ and ‘Electroland’ events scheduled for this summer. These popular events draw large crowds each year, and will not be held in 2020 due to social distancing precautions. Disneyland Paris released this information on the respective webpages for each of these events.
‘Electroland‘ is a popular electro-music festival that showcases popular electronic music artists. The festival previously scheduled for July 3-5, 2020 has been rescheduled for July 2-4, 2021, according to Disneyland Paris’ website. This would have been the fourth annual celebration of this 2-day dance party.
Similarly, ‘Pride‘ is an LGBTQ celebration at Disneyland Paris and is known for being the first Disney-sponsored event of its kind. This event was scheduled for June 6, 2020, and is now expected to be held at some point in June 2021. Postponing ‘Pride’ and ‘Electroland’ is sure to disappoint many prospective attendees but is in compliance with the precautions set forth to combat COVID-19.
Postponing ‘Pride’ and ‘Electroland’
The decision to postpone these events is only the most recent in a string of cancellations due to COVID-19. With public gatherings in France cancelled well into the summer, Disneyland Paris may remain closed through that time. At this point, any information related to when the Disney parks will reopen is purely speculation. Postponing ‘Pride’ and ‘Electroland’ may mean that until at least mid-July, Disneyland Paris will not reopen.
The announcements specify that all tickets and hotel reservations will be refunded as a result of these cancellations. While this news may create more uncertainty, it is clear that Disney is doing its part to adhere to recommendations. Public safety is a top priority of the Disney company, which is more obvious than ever during these times. Stay tuned for more information related to how the Coronavirus Pandemic is affecting Disney parks.
