Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show

Disney Village, Disneyland Paris

The best way to describe this would be to use the report I wrote on this for our Valentine's 2010 trip:
Normally the price is about 60 Euros, which I have to say is a bit much even for a dinner show at Disney. But for the 29 Euros we paid it was actually pretty good value. If the regular price was 29 Euros, I’d probably want to do it more often. So we were told to be there an hour before the show. We arrived, and waited for a little bit then were eventually let in. From the outside the building that houses BBWWS is not too inspiring. It shares its main entrance with the cinemas, and looks very plain by all accounts. Even when you’re checking in inside and waiting, it is not too themed. There are some posters and information, and a couple of props, but again nothing really great. The doors open and you have to make a line to exchange your entry ticket for your seating ticket. As you turn the corner once having got your seat number, you move forward and are given your “free” cowboy hat and you are presented with the most incredible sight! You are in a very old, western looking saloon style corridor. There are those little twinkly blue lights they put in trees all around you, lots of posters and information on the walls, neon lights, and statues. It is quite cool actually! There is a bar area, and a stage. There are the different entrance areas depending on your seat number. Before you reach the end of the corridor area (before you actually get to the bar), there is a special character meet and greet area, where a very cool looking western Mickey Mouse is meeting his fans! We of course had to get our picture! There is a photographer there, and you can pick up the picture later in Disney Village if you want to buy it. I have to say the bar prices are a bit much, as you’d probably expect, but you aren’t waiting around too long in any case. Just before you’re allowed into the main arena there is a little show up on the stage in the bar. A man who slings ropes, and a band come out to play, joined by cowboy Goofy a few minutes later. It’s good old fashioned country fun with guitars, dancing and clapping. You are then called to your gates for entry into the arena, and this is where the fun really begins! You are shown to your designated row, which is a big long bench with plates, cutlery and cups already laid out. The benches are staggered quite generously so every row gets a very good view of the arena overall. The show starts, and involves characters, stunts and music. There is a lot of action, and I have to say it was very good! I really enjoyed the whole experience. The food itself was ok. It wasn’t anything special. If you like BBQ Tex-Mex sort of food all on the bone, then you’ll be fine. I’m a fussy eater and found myself picking at it, which in the dark is hard to do! I think if we do the show again, I’d go for the vegetarian option as so that I am not worried about what I am putting in my mouth without being able to see it! Overall a very fun experience, one that I would highly recommend - especially if they have the 29 Euro deals again!

Mickey Mouse meets his fans before the show in the bar area. He wears a special Western outfit.
