For the first time ever, in celebration of LGBT pride month, The Walt Disney Company will be hosting an official pride parade at Disneyland Paris park in France.

Pride events have been taking place at the Disney Parks for years. However, they’ve all been hosted “unofficially” by park guests. Walt Disney World and Disneyland have both hosted “unofficial” events, including “Gay Days,” an unofficial weekend celebrating gay couples and their same sex parents since the mid-to-late 2000s. According to The Daily Wire, even Disneyland Paris has seen the unofficial “Magical Pride” celebration since 2014.

But for the first time ever, taking place June 1, 2019 from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m., Disneyland Paris park will invite park guests to “Dress like a dream, feel fabulous and experience Walt Disney Studios Park like never before – loud, proud and alive with all the colours of the rainbow.” The celebration will light up the park with special experiences exclusive to the event, which can be seen below:

Booking is now available for the specially ticketed event in two separate offerings, a Magical Pride Ticket ($107.64) and Magical Pride Plus Ticket ($131.83). The Magical Pride Plus Ticket allows guests earlier entry into the park starting at 4 p.m.

Both tickets include:

DJ moments & special live performance artist

Karaoke Theater Experience

Themed Photo locations
