Sleeping Beauty Castle- 41.200 sheets of gold leaf added!

Disney has gone all out and celebrates its 30th anniversary in style.

The launch of the festivities and found celebrations already in full swing at Europe’s number one tourist attraction.

The number 30 is emblazoned everywhere from the main entrance to the Mickey-shaped balloons sold on Main Street.

All paths still lead to the iconic pink Sleeping Beauty Castle but even this has been spruced up for the occasion, with a mammoth renovation requiring 370 gallons of paint and 41,200 sheets of gold leaf applied by hand.

Fashion designer Stella McCartney has designed Minnie Mouse’s first-ever trouser suit plus a new range of merchandise, and there’s even a specially-created celebration cocktail of tangy gin, elderflower liqueur, blackberry, green apple, grape and lemon – probably best enjoyed after you’ve finished riding the roller coasters.

Menus in the 59 restaurants across Disneyland Paris have also had a 30th-anniversary makeover.
