Shanghai government denies rumors of Shanghaî Disneyland approval

Cold shower on the Shanghaî Disneyland announcement! Two days ago, an official announcement was supposed to happen anytime soon, and today Chen Qiwei spokesman of the Shanghaî Municipal Government said that the Shanghaî Disneyland project is still awaiting approval from the State department.

Chen made the above remarks responding to recent rumors that the Disney project has already been approved, and may be announced this week... so, i think we'll have to wait a bit more for this highly awaited announcement. In the meantime, don't miss the Disney Dream article below!

  1. According to another news report, the announcement has to be made by Central Government of China, that is, officials at Beijing rather than city of Shanghai.

    They have to make sure everything is firm before announcing the deal. It was reported that the deal also includes other media rights for Disney in China.

  2. Announcement would be made around 15th November by Beijing Officials.

  3. I wish they´d stop building new parks - it just makes the existing ones less special... there shouldn´t be a Magic Kindom next to every Starbucks...

  4. It used to be interesting to see if Disney or McDonlads would get to a destination first. Now Starbucks is following both. If you can't beat them join them.
