Disneyland Paris is entering a bold new chapter with the debut of Disney Adventure World, officially opening on March 29, 2026.
The reimagined second park represents one of the most ambitious transformations in the resort’s history, nearly doubling its size and introducing a wave of new attractions, themed landscapes, dining experiences, and entertainment offerings.
The expansion is anchored by World of Frozen, an immersive land that brings the kingdom of Arendelle to life, alongside a grand new promenade, Adventure Way, and a massive new lake that will host an all-new nighttime spectacular.
The destination will deliver an elevated level of storytelling, breathing new life into more than 90% of the park since its original 2002 opening.
World of Frozen: A Landmark Addition
The centerpiece of the expansion is World of Frozen, a richly themed environment inspired by the beloved Frozen films. Guests will explore Arendelle’s Nordic-style village square, framed by the towering North Mountain and Elsa’s Ice Palace shimmering above the skyline.
The land’s major attraction, Frozen Ever After, invites families on a scenic boat ride through iconic moments from the films, complete with advanced Audio-Animatronics and immersive projection effects. Visitors will also have the chance to enjoy “A Celebration in Arendelle,” a daytime show performed on Viking longships in Arendelle Bay.
Inside Arendelle Castle, guests can meet Anna and Elsa during a Royal Encounter, while younger visitors will delight in spontaneous character interactions throughout the village, including the debut of Rúna, a baby troll companion.
Dining arrives in the form of Nordic Crowns Tavern, a quick-service venue, and exclusive merchandise awaits at Arendelle Boutique. Completing the atmosphere is a new musical score composed by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, created specifically for this groundbreaking land.
After nightfall, the adjacent Adventure Bay will host “Disney Cascade of Lights,” a monumental 360-degree nighttime spectacular featuring drones, choreographed fountains, water screens, pyrotechnics, and an original 40-minute soundtrack recorded at Abbey Road Studios.
Adventure Way and Beyond
Beyond Arendelle, guests can explore Adventure Way, a vibrant new promenade lined with lush themed gardens, character encounters, and an impressive array of new dining options.
Fourteen food and beverage locations will debut, including La Terrasse Panoramique, serving hearty bread bowls and cozy beverages, and Café Luminosity, offering creative hot dog recipes and sweet treats. Mobile carts and chalets will provide whimsical snacks such as filled brioche rolls and desserts inspired by Disney Princesses.
The promenade’s gardens draw inspiration from Disney and Pixar classics: Tangled Garden brings a romantic atmosphere, while Toy Story Garden features playful topiaries shaped like iconic toys.
The Gazebo Garden offers an English-style retreat anchored by bronze statues of beloved characters such as Winnie the Pooh and Peter Pan. The area will also host seasonal entertainment throughout the year, from Rapunzel and Flynn’s musical spring encounter to Miguel’s Latin Festival in the fall.
Visitors will discover the first bar ever located inside a Disneyland Paris park – an elegant lounge adorned in royal blue with gold accents and artwork highlighting Disney Princess animal companions. The space connects to an adjoining table-service restaurant, both overlooking Adventure Bay and offering prime views of the nighttime show.
Looking ahead, Disney Adventure World will continue expanding. A new land inspired by The Lion King is already under construction, featuring a major water-based attraction enhanced with next-generation Audio-Animatronics and classic songs from the 1994 film. Adventure Way will also welcome a family-friendly flying carousel inspired by Pixar’s Up.
Disney Adventure World marks a monumental evolution for Disneyland Paris, promising deeper storytelling, richer immersion, and new adventures for guests of every generation as the resort steps into an exciting new era.
