These cards are real treasures for fans and collectors, steeped in the magic and history of these enchanting places. Each card is a unique souvenir of a wonderful stay, a window onto the magical worlds that only Disney can create. These are rare items, held by only a handful of enthusiasts, and today I’m delighted to share with you this collection that is so close to my heart.

How can I get these collector cards?
Acquiring these Disneyland Paris collector cards is a real game of patience and timing, as they are only available for very short periods. These ephemeral paper treasures are accessible during specific periods, often just a few days during a special event or a particular season in the park. The key to obtaining them? Courteously approach the cast members responsible for housekeeping. As you stroll through the enchanted kingdom, approach them politely, offer them a friendly smile and express your request with all the kindness in the world.
It’s essential to respect these dedicated employees: they share these cards during their working hours, adding a little more magic to your experience. So avoid being pushy or insistent, don’t harass them, and certainly don’t chase after them. It’s also a good idea to ask for only one card of each type, so that other visitors can enjoy them too.
Finally, I urge you to honour the spirit of sharing and courtesy at Disneyland Paris: do not sell these free cards on resale platforms such as Vinted, and do not participate in this market by buying them. This behaviour goes against the park’s values and threatens the continuity of this tradition. If such practices become widespread, they could lead Disneyland Paris to stop distributing these cards to prevent this kind of illegal trade. Let’s all be responsible so that the magic continues!
