Magical Pride, Disney’s first official LGBTI event, is being celebrated as a massive success.
Disneyland Paris welcomed people from all over the globe for a day of Pride, pixie dust, diversity and all things Disney on 1 June.
The private pride party in the evening saw live performances from Years & Years and Corine.
Boy George and SindyKatz played DJ sets. Fans of Disney also enjoyed the brand new Magical March of Diversity parade and meet ‘n’ greets with characters.
Selected attractions were even open late until the night, with the event finishing at 2am.

Magical Pride originally began as an independent trip for LGBTI Disney lovers, created by Greatdays Holidays in conjunction with Manchester Pride. Greatdays Holidays are a preferred partner of Disneyland Paris, arranging group trips and events at the happiest place on Earth.
Inspired by Gay Days, which is an unofficial event held at Disneyland Resort in California and Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, Magical Pride at Disneyland Paris first took place in 2014 and has grown year on year.
Last year, Disney like rainbow Mickey Mouse ears.
And now, Magical Pride is expected to get even bigger every year.
