What is Disney Adventure World?
Disney Adventure World is the brand new second park at Disneyland Paris, officially opened on 29 March 2026. Previously known as Walt Disney Studios Park, it has undergone a spectacular multi-year transformation and reopened under its exciting new name with expanded themed lands, breathtaking new attractions and a completely reimagined guest experience. Disney Adventure World joins Disneyland Park to make Disneyland Paris a true two-park destination — one of the most exciting developments in European theme park history in decades.
Located side by side with Disneyland Park at Chessy, Marne-la-Vallée, the resort is now one of Europe's premier family destinations. Whether you're travelling from the UK, Ireland, Italy, Spain, Germany or Portugal, getting to Disney Adventure World has never been easier — and with MickeyCabs private transfers from all three Paris airports (CDG, Orly and Beauvais), your family can arrive directly at your hotel entrance in comfort.
What's New at Disney Adventure World in 2026?
The transformation of Disney Adventure World represents the most ambitious expansion in Disneyland Paris history. Years of construction and investment have produced a park that feels entirely fresh while retaining beloved existing attractions. Key new additions and lands include:
- World of Frozen — The headline new land of 2026 and arguably the most anticipated Disney attraction ever built in Europe. A fully immersive Frozen-themed world brings Arendelle to life with stunning architecture, original theming, new dining experiences and the centrepiece attraction Frozen: A Musical Invitation. Expect this to be the most popular area of the park throughout 2026.
- Avengers Campus — Marvel's superhero headquarters has transformed Disney Adventure World into a must-visit for Marvel fans. Featuring Spider-Man WEB Adventure (one of the most technologically advanced Disney attractions ever built), character encounters with Avengers heroes, and the outstanding Pym Kitchen restaurant, Avengers Campus delivers an experience unlike anything else in European theme parks.
- Cars Route 66 — The world of Pixar's Cars comes to life in a Route 66-inspired land. Lightning McQueen, Mater and the gang are all here, with the Racing Academy attraction and immersive theming that delights children and adults alike.
- Toy Story Playland — Expanded and reimagined, Toy Story Playland now offers more for young families including Slinky Dog Zigzag Spin, RC Racer and Toy Soldiers Parachute Drop — a full afternoon of family rides in a single land.
- La Place de Rémy — The charming Parisian district built around the iconic Ratatouille: The Adventure ride. Miniaturised to mouse-size, guests race through Gusteau's restaurant in one of Europe's most beloved and unique theme park attractions.
Disney Adventure World vs Disneyland Park — What's the Difference?
Disneyland Paris now operates two wonderfully distinct parks at Chessy, Marne-la-Vallée. Understanding the difference helps families plan their visit effectively:
| Feature | Disneyland Park | Disney Adventure World |
|---|---|---|
| Theme | Classic Disney magic, fairy tales, fantasy | Adventure, Marvel, Pixar, Frozen |
| Best for | Young children, Disney classics fans | Families, teenagers, Marvel fans |
| Icon | Sleeping Beauty Castle | Avengers Campus, Frozen World |
| Must-do | It's a Small World, Peter Pan, Big Thunder | Frozen land, Spider-Man WEB, Ratatouille |
| Opened | 1992 | Renamed & transformed 2026 |
The two parks complement each other perfectly. Most families with children of mixed ages find that Disneyland Park is the favourite of younger children (under 6), while Disney Adventure World appeals strongly to older children, teenagers and adults — particularly Marvel fans and Frozen enthusiasts.
How Long Do You Need at Disney Adventure World?
With the 2026 expansion, Disney Adventure World alone now warrants a full dedicated day — and many families find they want more. The new Frozen World alone can absorb 2-3 hours during peak periods. Our recommendations by trip length:
- 1 day visit: Focus on Disney Adventure World OR Disneyland Park — not both. Arrive at opening, use Premier Access for Frozen and Spider-Man, take a lunch break and you'll cover the highlights.
- 2 day visit: One day per park. Ideal for families wanting to experience both parks without rushing.
- 3 day visit: The recommended duration for families with young children. Time to revisit favourite attractions, explore restaurants, catch shows and enjoy the resort at a relaxed pace.
Best Attractions at Disney Adventure World for Families
- Frozen: A Musical Invitation — The showpiece of 2026. An immersive walkthrough musical experience with Anna and Elsa in the heart of Arendelle. Expect long queues — visit first thing or use Premier Access.
- Ratatouille: The Adventure — The park's signature ride and consistently rated one of Europe's best theme park attractions. Suitable for all ages. Miniaturised guests race through Gusteau's restaurant in trackless ride vehicles with stunning visual effects.
- Spider-Man WEB Adventure — The technological jewel of Avengers Campus. An interactive ride where guests shoot webs at targets while surrounded by immersive visual effects. One of Disney's most impressive recent additions anywhere in the world.
- Cars Quatre Roues Rallye — The beloved spinning car rally in Cars land — perfect for younger children and Cars fans of every age.
- RC Racer — The thrilling half-pipe racing car in Toy Story Playland. A favourite of older children and teenagers for the adrenaline rush.
- Crush's Coaster — The park's most exciting roller coaster, themed around Finding Nemo. Spinning cars, ocean tunnel and unexpected drops make this a consistent favourite for families with older children.
