Hi,

auf http://www.resortpictures.net/ gibt es nun die Bestätigung:

Gayday in DLRP confirmed
Gaykrant has confirmed that the first Gayday in DLRP will take place on the 4th of october 2003. Gay, lesbians and bisexuals will be asked to wear a white piece of clothes so they will recognise each other. Later, the Gayday will be transformed into Gaynight in Disney Village. There will be a special Night Fever party at Discotheque Hurricanes.
The European Gayday will not be an initiative by DLRP or Eurodisney, but by several European Gay magazines.

Ich hab jedenfalls mal gebucht und bin dabei! Fällt ja auch ganz praktisch mit unserem Feiertag am 3. Oktober

Warum eigentlich weiß? Das ist in Orlando doch rot, und weiß tragen wohl auch zu viele "unbedarfte" Parkbesucher...

Hi,

ich denke die Farbe ist egal, denn rot tragen hier auch viele "unbedarfte" Parkbesucher.

Gruss Renate

Bericht zu den 1. GayDays im DLRP. Warum jetzt in Frankreich weisse und keine roten T-Shirts getragen werden sollen, kann ich auch nicht sagen. Da ich noch ein 'offizielles' GayDays T-Shirt in rot habe, werde ich natürlich das anziehen

Gays prepare to descend on Disneyland

Homosexuals are being urged to converge on Disneyland Paris on Saturday 4 October for the theme park's first unofficial "gay day".

The idea, promoted originally by gay magazines and websites in the Netherlands, is based on similarly unofficial gatherings at Walt Disney World in Florida, which have angered American conservatives.

Disneyland Paris said it had not encouraged the gay jamboree but saw no reason to discourage it. There would be no official recognition of the gay day and no special offers for gay visitors, who would be expected to obey the park's family-oriented rules (including appropriate dress and no overtly sexual behaviour).

A spokesman said: "It's a day like any other. There is no discrimination at Disney either on the grounds of politics, religion or indeed sexual orientation. There is no reason for us to treat these visitors differently from any others."

Some tour operators are offering special travel packages and websites are encouraging gays to wear white T-shirts so they can recognise one another.

The Walt Disney Corporation has become a frequent target of American fundamentalist religious groups. They object to Disney's tolerance of the gay events in Florida and to its practice of extending corporate benefits to homosexual organisations.
