Disneyland Paris Cast Members have selected their new name tag design in honor of the resort’s 30th anniversary. We got a look at the golden tags earlier this month, but Disneyland Paris has now shared a video of the step-by-step process of creating the tags. Watch the TikTok video below or by clicking here.
@disneylandparis Coulisses
On finalise la fabrication des Name Tags de nos Cast Members pour notre 30e Anniversaire !
#DisneylandParis30
Step one is cutting.
Step two is creating impressions.
And step three is engraving.
The end result is a golden nametag with white stars and lines around the edge. The Cast Member’s name, “Disneyland Paris,” and 30th anniversary logo are in blue lettering.
Here’s Cast Member Manon showing off their new name tag!

We may be talking about traveling to a galaxy far, far away A LOT right now thanks to the new Star Wars hotel opening in Disney World NEXT week, but there will soon be another way for guests to travel to space in the parks — just in a different universe (or should we say multiverse)!

The brand new indoor roller coaster, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, will finally welcome guests onboard THIS summer and we’ve been bringing you along with us for allll the updates on the ride vehicles, when filming for the ride took place, and we even got a look inside. We’ve also been keeping a close eye on the construction progress (at least, what we can see of it), and today we’re another step closer!
This afternoon we hopped onboard the highway in the sky to see what was happening behind the construction walls and spotted something NEW at the entrance!
We spy something with our little eye
Can you see it? Look again!
Do you see what we see?
Queue entrances are taking shape for
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind
— Disney Food Blog (@DisneyFoodBlog) February 25, 2022
The queue signs have arrived and are poised up above the entrance! These signs will eventually help guests identify where to go for the standby line and where to go for the Lightning Lane.
There are new signs hanging above the entrance!
It’s important to note that Disney hasn’t yet revealed whether Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind will be included as a Genie+ attraction or will be deemed an Individual Attraction Selection, so that second sign could also be for something else. Maybe even a single rider line!
We’re still waiting on an official opening date for this thing, but we can’t WAIT to ride it once it is completed! Of course, we’ll be on the lookout for more updates on the attraction, so be sure to stay tuned to DFB for all the latest!
And, if you want to learn more about this roller coaster that will take you on an intergalactic adventure with the Guardians of the Galaxy and is said to be one of the longest indoor roller coasters ever built, check out more of our posts below!
Plus, you can learn more about all the NEW things coming to Disney World in 2022 in the video below!

HIDE your credit cards — even MORE Disney merchandise has arrived online!
Who wants to go shopping?
We’re constantly seeing Disney drop new products based on our favorite movies, shows, and characters. Sometimes we get special accessories that are perfect for a day in the parks and sometimes we get items that we can’t wait to add to our homes. And if you’re a bit of a Disney shopaholic like us, then you’ll want to see the full list of new items that dropped this week!
Throughout the past several months, we’ve seen Disney release several castle collections of merchandise, themed to the homes of some of our favorite princesses! This week, the Belle Castle Collection landed on shopDisney, and it was pretty popular.

In fact, some of the items online have already sold out! So if you’re interested in the pin, the puzzle, or the matching journal, you’ll want to hurry and get your shopping done.
Planning to sail away on a Disney Cruise sometime soon? (Perhaps on the new Disney Wish?) Well, we’ve got just the thing for you! New Disney Cruise Line items arrived online this week, including a tropical pair of Minnie ears and some fun Dooney & Bourke bags.

We love the fun, beachy prints on these items, and can we just say…Mickey and Minnie look GREAT in hats! If you want to add any of these accessories to your collection before you sail, check out our full post.
We’ve seen hundreds of 50th Anniversary items in Disney World and online over the last few months, but a very unique collection landed online this week! The retro park map items are made to look like an old map of Magic Kingdom, and with the products online, you can make a whole outfit out of the ensemble.
Park map Crocs!
Currently, there’s a bucket hat, a pair of Crocs, and a matching spirit jersey available to order. These things were a HIT when they landed in the parks, so hurry if you want to snag them!
Calling all Dooney & Bourke collectors — have you SEEN Disney’s newest collection? These new bags came to the parks and online this week and they feature the mouse that started it all…in Steamboat Willie form!
Okay we definitely like the crossbody!
The black and white print is simple and stylish — the perfect match for any Disney parks outfit. However, they’re not cheap! The bags cost between $228-$268 each.
And finally, there are new items for fans of our favorite chubby little cubby all stuffed with fluff. We’ve spotted the adorably irresistible Winnie the Pooh home collection in the parks already, but now some of those same products are online for all to shop.

You can get everything from storage containers to wall decor — great for some casual touches around the home or for your kiddo’s bedroom. The whole collection is seriously precious!
That’s everything new that landed online this week! Thanks for trusting DFB as your source of Disney news, and stay tuned for more merchandise updates throughout the week.
