The pastels look nice in DLP, so I'm interested to see what happens I'm surprised by how nice the Frozen show looks. It seems like a big upgrade from the sing along shows in the US, though I expect the new show at the Hyperion to be even more elaborate

This is how it will look in the future. <a target="blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://i0.wp.com/www.dlptoday.com/images/2015/06/20150610_whatsnext_12.jpg">http://i0.wp.com/www.dlptoday....t_12.jpg</a>

Paying true homage to the union of cultures, a subject dear to Walt Disney, this attraction will be receiving a major facelift starting in August. Some of the work to be done includes a new façade color palate, all new dolls and costumes, a re-mastered musical score, and some new surprises- all to bring new magic to the adventure!<<<

Originally Posted By dagobert in my opinion the current facade looked already nice, especially during the winter months. However the new colour scheme is an improvement, because it gives more texture to the facade.

It has been there for at least two years now. Maybe even longer.

In two weeks we will be at DLP and I can't wait to see all the refurbs.

Originally Posted By u k fan Yeah, I've done that before. I think we got a small discount for doing so, but it might be worth checking their website to see what's available!!!

We would have to buy the tickets on the Austrian DLP website and there aren't any deals. We need a 1-day ticket and with that we will get the annual pass. Since we will arrive Monday afternoon, we will buy the tickets at the resort.
