Disneyland Paris: 'World of Frozen' Set for 2026 Debut

Disney fans across Europe have been waiting since 2018 for a glimpse into the kingdom of Arendelle. Today, new details from Disneyland Paris suggest that 'World of Frozen' is finally on track for its March 29, 2026 debut at the Walt Disney Studios Park. This opening will also mark the official rebranding of the park to Disney Adventure World, signalling a new era for the resort.

What to Expect in Arendelle

The new land is centered around a massive, 70,000-cubic-meter lake. This body of water will serve as the stage for spectacular nighttime shows and water-based entertainment that has never been seen in the Paris park before. The centerpiece is the North Mountain, topped with Elsa’s Ice Palace. Guests will be able to experience Frozen Ever After, a high-tech dark ride that mirrors the popular attraction at EPCOT in Florida. However, it features updated animatronics and staging specifically designed for the Paris audience. There is a clear focus on immersion here, with every detail of the village designed to make you feel like you have stepped right into the film.

The 2026 Transformation

2026 marks a turning point for the resort. The opening of World of Frozen is the anchor for a massive multi-year expansion that aims to double the capacity and appeal of the resort's second park. With immersive dining like the The Royal Banquet Hall and a new village inspired by the architecture of Arendelle, Disney is betting big on the Frozen franchise. They are looking to drive record-breaking attendance from the UK and Europe. If you have been putting off a trip to Paris, 2026 is officially the year to book.
