Disneyland Paris in Sand Sculpture Festival Opening Ceremony

The always excellent Andy De Maertelaere of the MouseKingdom Blog was lucky enough to attend the opening ceremony of the Disneyland Paris Sand Sculpture exhibit I blogged about here the other day.

The opening ceremony started with a small introduction about the project. The idea started by one of the artist while working on an ice sculpture event in Paris. This man is Alexander Deman. He contacted Disneyland Paris, met up in January and only 5 months later he and his team created a fantastic sand sculpture display of Disneyland Paris attractions and some of Disney’s most beloved characters. Alexander came to the stage and talked about the work and invited all artist on stage who where welcomed by a big applause from the public. The 2 Disney ambassadors Régis & Osvaldo visited especially from Paris and where impressed about what they saw here in Blankenberge.
