Disney Takes Full Ownership of Disneyland Paris

A few months back it was noted that Disney was buying more stock into Disneyland Paris, thus hinting towards the possibility that Disney would be taking over soon.

A few days ago, Disney took the leap and bought more than 97% of the shares for Euro Disney SCA aka the holding company that officially owns Disneyland Paris. Disney needed to get 95% of the shares in order to remove it from trading and complete the buyout process. With recent terrorist attacks combined with slow economic performance, Disneyland Paris seems to be the Disney park that has suffered the most. With its lack of new attractions, it has not helped bring in attendance either.

Disneyland Paris will now be the first Disney park outside of the United States to be completely owned bu the company and with no outside investors in the way, the company can do whatever they see fit to help the park revitalize itself once more. With Disney owning Marvel and Star Wars rights and its recent refreshment with the 25th anniversary, the possibilities are endless to what Disney could place in the park. Some locals who frequent Disneyland Paris are asking for changes in entertainment.
