Our partners at magicblog announced earlier this week confirmation that Agrabah Café will finally reopen for good from 6th November 2007! The restaurant will be open daily from 11.30am to 4pm, another item successfully ticked off the “to do” list by Karl Holz’ management.īut wait… with an exceptional location like this, why open it for just any old street rats? Indeed, from the outset you won’t be able to stroll into Agrabah Café and grab a bite to eat - you’ll need to be one jump ahead - specifically, in possession of some Half Board Meal Plan vouchers! Yes, Agrabah Café will be the first “ Half Board-only” restaurant in the entire resort, meaning that you’ll need to have bought the pre-pay vouchers in advance and therefore have also booked yourself into a Disney Hotel.

Tempted by this teaser? Luckily, this won’t be one for our Wish List.

Aside from rare press events and the single-day opening each year on 31st December, the only way to see this exceptional location has been through some small glass windows in the remaining Les Trésors du Shéhérazade boutique… Unfortunately, the same Jay Rasulo-led pre- Walt Disney Studios Park era which brought us the closure of the River Rogue Keelboats and downturn in upkeep eventually caused Agrabah Café to close - taking the chance of a glimpse at its beautiful setting with it. No longer would guests be able to stroll along the covered alley and browse in small boutiques such as L’Echoppe d’Aladdin and La Reine des Serpents - now, the entire covered shopping district would be a unique 1001 Nights-inspired dining area. If you weren’t even a fan before the early 2000s, no doubt the entire area is a hidden treasure in your mind…Īgrabah Café opened in the more spectacular, Northern buildings of Adventureland Bazaar in 1999, a new buffet restaurant to increase capacity for the increase in visitors since the 5th Anniversary. If you weren’t a fan before 1998, you’ve probably never seen the covered Arabian alley of small shops and beautiful details as it was originally intended. Photos by Lucky, Japper, Arno-hh with thanks to and Disney Central Plaza.Īdventureland Bazaar is a world of secrets, a mysterious, mythical place to Disneyland Resort Paris fans. The new entrance is still expected to be the mythical Hollywood Hills tunnel, framework for which appeared back in July just in front of the old entrance to the attraction’s large queue area. In perhaps the most ruthless transformation effort yet seen at the Studios ( Toon Studio saw only additions, rather than destruction, for example), the signage has been dismantled leaving only the bare white frame behind. The entrance really will be brand new - the old 2002 “billboard” entrance featuring spotlights, a dragon and a Catastrophe Canyon oil tanker is officially no more. Plaza, before fragmenting into its separate two-dimensional sets and their forced perspective playing tricks on the mind when - eventually - guests can walk along it toward the new Studio Tram Tour: Behind the Magic entrance… The make-up and layout of the boulevard forms this picture-postcard view from Disney Bros.

The windows of the tower appear to feature an extra layer of reflective plastic, although this could simply be some clever 2-D design work. No doubt the Imagineers saw this connection between the two buildings whilst on the search for new icons on the Studios’ boulevard. In a two-dimensional form with a heavy forced perspective, the building luckily still appears to sit well next to the all-important Hollywood Tower Hotel, sharing similar windows and vertical Art Deco lines in its architecture. The Off the Page/La Terrasse building now has its first prefab details, whilst the tall white skyscraper of the real Hollywood Boulevard‘s First National Bank has climbed almost to completion in less than a week. (Notice also the extra conifer trees recently added to the empty corner of Production Courtyard)įurther into the park, the picture-postcard view along the new Hollywood Boulevard is beginning to take shape, as shown in photos posted by from magicforum member Japper. Member Lucky on Disney Central Plaza forum snapped the following photo from Disney Village‘s parking, showing the formerly empty area at the heart of the park now populated by the Hollywood sets in all shapes and styles.
