Disneyland Paris Closes Sleeping Beauty Castle’s Main Bridge for Refurbishment

Guests must use side paths, with the castle and dragon walkthrough remaining open.

Overview

  • The park closed the central bridge into Sleeping Beauty Castle on Tuesday, redirecting foot traffic through adjacent pathways and the courtyard.
  • Disney’s nighttime show now runs in a modified format, as fountain effects are paused and white walls support the castle projections.
  • Sleeping Beauty Castle and La Tanière du Dragon, the walkthrough beneath the castle with an animatronic dragon, remain open via alternate entrances.
  • Green construction walls installed at Fantasia Gardens in late April constrain the main approach to the gates, with added barriers at Town Square Gazebo and near a Main Street popcorn cart further narrowing routes.
  • Disney expects the bridge work to finish by late September 2026, marking the second major bridge refurbishment since 2010 and removing a popular photo vantage during the busy summer.
