Overview
- Disney Wonders, an immersive retail boutique celebrating Disney, Pixar, Star Wars and Marvel, opens September 22, 2026 and replaces the old Disney Store footprint with new character-driven design elements.
- The North Block phase is effectively wrapping up and resort teams are now preparing the next stage, the South Block, with construction planning set for 2027 and some closures needed to ready the site.
- Rainforest Cafe will close by the end of 2026 to clear space for the South Block project while Casa Giulia, a two-level Italian restaurant from the Brasserie Rosalie team, is due to open at Disney Village by the end of 2026.
- Several dining and entertainment venues have firm windows: Vapiano will close for a full refurbishment at the end of 2026 and reopen in early 2027, Annette’s Diner will return after an extensive 2027 overhaul, and Pathé Cinema will receive a phased 2027 upgrade including recliner seating and improved projection.
- Walt Disney Imagineering Paris is staging the work to keep many venues operating, using seasonal activations such as Disney Enchanted Christmas to showcase the refreshed promenade and to boost after‑hours guest circulation and non‑park revenue.
