Disney Adventure World Opens at Disneyland Paris With Flagship World of Frozen

The €2 billion overhaul signals a shift to immersive, tech‑driven lands at Europe’s top theme park.

Overview

  • The renamed second gate opened to the public Sunday, following Saturday’s inauguration with Disney leaders and French officials.
  • World of Frozen anchors the park with the Frozen Ever After boat ride, a royal encounter with Anna and Elsa, a water‑stage show, and a free‑roaming Olaf robot programmed with reinforcement learning.
  • A new nighttime spectacular, Disney Cascade of Lights, uses choreographed drones, advanced fountains, projections, and what Imagineering says are 100 unique water drones.
  • Disney cites a near‑€2 billion investment, over 1,000 direct new jobs, an estimated €692 million in yearly value added to France’s economy, and nearly 400 suppliers, as President Emmanuel Macron highlighted the resort’s national impact.
  • The rollout is phased, with the Tangled spinner now open on Adventure Way while a Lion King land and an Up‑themed family carousel are under construction with opening dates yet to be announced.
