After the French president announced a new mandate in response to increase in positive cases, Disneyland Paris has revealed how long it will be closed for. It’s longer than you think, but there is a possible bright spot in all this. Full details below.

Mandates and Closure

Another spike in positive coronavirus cases has occurred in Europe, causing President Macron to send out new safety mandates. The average number of positive cases in France is over 38,000 per day.

The new safety measure states that, beginning October 30, people will only be allowed to leave their homes for essential work or medical reasons.

Non-essential businesses such as restaurants, bars, and entertainment options will close. Factories and schools will be allowed to remain open.

This measure is expected to last until at least December 1, and it will be re-evaluated every two weeks.
