Moments suspended in time, where the pressures of daily life gave way to the joy of being together, in a setting designed for dreaming.<\/p>\n<p>As soon as they arrived at the Marvel Hotel, the families were given a warm welcome over coffee and croissants\u2026 in the company of a superhero! After settling into their rooms and exploring the hotel\u2019s facilities, the participants enjoyed a meal together, before setting off to explore the two Disney parks at their leisure. Come evening, everyone attended the famous night-time parade. Back at the hotel, a surprise awaited the children and patients in their rooms: a soft toy to help prolong the magic of the day just a little longer.<\/p>\n<p>The following day, everyone was able to enjoy the attractions, shows and meet-and-greets with iconic Disney characters at their own pace.<\/p>\n<p>This magical interlude served as a reminder to everyone of just how vital it is to offer moments of respite to families coping with illness.<\/p>\n\n            <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"container-content-small\">\n    <div class=\"galerie mt-4 mb-4\">\n\n        <div class=\"grid grid-3\">\n\n                        <div class=\"grid-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/elainternational.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Diaporama-repit-Belgique-Elastigirl.jpg\" class=\"galerie-item\" data-fancybox=\"gallery-233732336723371233692337723375\" data-caption=\"\">\n\n                        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/elainternational.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Diaporama-repit-Belgique-Elastigirl.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"grid-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/elainternational.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Diaporama-repit-Belgique-parc.jpg\" class=\"galerie-item\" data-fancybox=\"gallery-233732336723371233692337723375\" data-caption=\"\">\n\n                        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/elainternational.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Diaporama-repit-Belgique-parc.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"grid-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/elainternational.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Diaporama-repit-Belgique-Spider-Man.jpg\" class=\"galerie-item\" data-fancybox=\"gallery-233732336723371233692337723375\" data-caption=\"\">\n\n                        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/elainternational.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Diaporama-repit-Belgique-Spider-Man.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"grid-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/elainternational.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Diaporama-repit-Belgique-peluches.jpg\" class=\"galerie-item\" data-fancybox=\"gallery-233732336723371233692337723375\" data-caption=\"\">\n\n                        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/elainternational.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Diaporama-repit-Belgique-peluches.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"grid-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/elainternational.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Diaporama-repit-Belgique-Donald.jpg\" class=\"galerie-item\" data-fancybox=\"gallery-233732336723371233692337723375\" data-caption=\"\">\n\n                        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/elainternational.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Diaporama-repit-Belgique-Donald.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"grid-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/elainternational.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Diaporama-repit-Belgique-Black-Panther.jpg\" class=\"galerie-item\" data-fancybox=\"gallery-233732336723371233692337723375\" data-caption=\"\">\n\n                        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/elainternational.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Diaporama-repit-Belgique-Black-Panther.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n            \n        <\/div>\n\n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":23379,"parent":0,"template":"","news_categories":[99],"class_list":["post-23915","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","news_categories-belgium"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 -
