It’s a double Calendar update today for your winter Disneyland Paris trip planning…

First, park opening hours for November 2012 reveal a schedule broadly similar to November 2011, with shorter weekday operation and some very long weekend hours, such as 9am to 10pm. This 9am opening, rather than standard 10am, could be a sign of how busy these winter weekends at Disneyland Paris have become, taking an hour out of Extra Magic Hours to spread the arrival of guests (who may also be more inclined to arrive and leave earlier with these colder days).

Second, the very latest Closures & Refurbishments updates, now including the schedule right up to December 2012. There’s more good news for Captain EO fans: Michael Jackson will be back to “change the world” again on certain dates in December. Meanwhile, seasonal curtailed operation of both Autopia and Armageddon: Les Effets Speciaux continues up until the Christmas holiday period.

Look out for some exciting improvements to our Calendar section soon, including an expanded Special Offers section and a new day-by-day park schedule guide!
