As reported by Reuters, Macron said the curfew is intended to slow the resurgence of COVID-19, which has been tied to parties and private gatherings. The curfews will take effect beginning this evening, and will run nightly from 9PM to 6AM until December 1st. The Paris region is one of the areas included in the curfew, which means Disneyland Paris will be impacted.
Things have been rapidly changing at Disney parks around the world.
