By Rikki
Get ready to enter a whole new world of adventure at Disneyland Paris! Beginning March 29, 2026, Walt Disney Studios Park will officially be renamed Disney Adventure World. This marks the beginning of a major transformation that introduces brand-new lands, attractions, restaurants, and a groundbreaking nighttime spectacular.
This new chapter brings the park its most ambitious expansion ever. It will immerse Guests in richly themed environments inspired by Disney Animation, Pixar, Marvel, and more.
Adventure Way
The first new area Guests will encounter is Adventure Way. This lush promenade includes immersive gardens, live entertainment, and an impressive selection of 14 new dining locations.
Gardens are inspired by beloved Disney and Pixar tales, including the Tangled Garden; the Toy Story Garden, where statues of Woody and Jessie stand among trees trimmed into toy shapes; and the Gazebo Garden, which is an English-style area adorned with bronze statues inspired by Disney Animation classics such as Winnie the Pooh, Peter Pan, and One Hundred and One Dalmatians.
Seasonal entertainment will take place here. There will be Rapunzel and Flynn’s Musical Encounter in spring, Mary Poppins and the Pearly Band in summer, Miguel’s Latin Festival in fall, and a variety of character greetings starting next November. There’s also the Disney Marching Band. This will be led by Minnie Mouse and 12 musicians who play renditions of Disney, Pixar, and Marvel favorites.
At the West Pavilion, Guests can meet Mickey and Minnie Mouse in brand-new Victorian-inspired costumes.
Raiponce Tangled Spin – New Family Attraction
Adventure Way will also debut a new family attraction, Raiponce Tangled Spin. This new attraction is inspired by Tangled. Guests will whirl around in a gondola beneath a sky of floating lanterns and the song “I See the Light.”
The Regal View Restaurant & Lounge
Adventure Way will also introduce one of Disneyland Paris’s most elegant dining experiences. The Regal View Restaurant & Lounge will be a table-service restaurant that will offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner. This will be a refined atmosphere decorated with embroidered drapes, floral tapestries, delicate wood moldings, and stunning murals of Disney Princesses.
Guests will meet Belle from Beauty and the Beast, Merida from Brave, Jasmine from Aladdin, Aurora from Sleeping Beauty, Mulan from Mulan and Ariel from The Little Mermaid.
The adjoining lounge will be the first bar located inside either Disneyland Paris park and will honor princess animal companions like: Heihei from Moana, Pascal from Tangled and Mushu from Mulan.
Both the restaurant and lounge will feature breathtaking views of Adventure Bay and World of Frozen.
More Dining Coming to Adventure Way
There are going to be 14 brand-new food and beverage locations along Adventure Way like La Terrasse Panoramique which will serve hearty bread bowls, New York rolls, and comforting hot beverages.
Café Luminosity will feature an original hot dog with four signature recipes, paired with sweet treats like cinnamon rolls.
There will also be chalets and mobile carts will offer new bites such. Options will include brioche rolls, stuffed potato waffles, and whimsical desserts inspired by Disney Princesses.
Disney Cascade of Lights – New Nighttime Spectacular
One of the most exciting additions is the Disney Cascade of Lights, a new 360° nighttime show at Adventure Bay. This show will feature hundreds of drones, choreographed fountains, water screens, and pyrotechnics, all set to a powerful score.
Stories represented in Disney Cascade of Lights include Mulan, Hercules, Moana and Zootopia, Up, and some from from the Marvel Universe.
Another really cool part of this new show is that it will feature the world’s first integration of an aquatic drone system. This will take place alongside next-generation aerial drones, creating breathtaking choreographies across sky and water.
The show will also feature new arrangements of Disney classics and an original anthem, “We Can Be Heroes.”
World of Frozen
World of Frozen will also open as part of Disney Adventure World. This expansion will feature stunning architecture, including the towering North Mountain crowned by Elsa’s Ice Palace, and a vibrant village square inspired by Nordic design.
At the heart of the land is Frozen Ever After. This is a family-friendly boat ride that journeys through scenes from the films, and includes Audio-Animatronics and cutting-edge projection technology.
You’ll also get to meet with Anna and Elsa inside Arendelle Castle. Finally, there will be a daytime show called “A Celebration in Arendelle.” This will be staged on Viking longships in Arendelle Bay.
The land will also offer quick-service dining at Nordic Crowns Tavern. There will be exclusive merchandise at Arendelle Boutique. Plus don’t miss interactive surprises like meeting Rúna, a baby troll companion.
In addition, Guests will be able to come face to face with a next-generation robotic character of Olaf. Olaf will make appearances in the Arendelle Bay.
Future Expansions for Disney Adventure World
And this is all just the beginning. Construction is already underway on the first themed area dedicated to Disney Animation’s The Lion King. This new land will feature a major attraction combining water-based thrills with next-generation Audio-Animatronics figures and unforgettable songs from the 1994 film.
Also, you’ll be able to soar into the world of Up on a family-friendly, flying carousel!
