As with many of the Disney Parks around the world, Disneyland Paris currently has a bunch of new projects underway to thrill and excite. From a new Marvel-themed hotel and land to a new Frozen themed land, special events, and new shows, there’s a whole lot to look forward as they welcome you to be their guest.
Here’s a look at some of the details we know so far about what to expect at Disneyland Paris!
All-New Frozen-Themed Area
Also in the coming years, guests will have even more Frozen experiences with a new themed area dedicated to the story, which is part of the multi-year expansion of the Walt Disney Studios Park. As part of the fully immersive land, guests will see:
- In the distance, the snow-capped mountain of Arendelle opposite a magnificent lake
- An attraction that will take them to the center of the Kingdom
- Character encounters
- A new restaurant and a shop
Avengers Campus
With details recently unveiled at the D23 Expo, fans can expect to find:
Spider-Man Attraction
The Worldwide Engineering Brigade, which we learned earlier this year is also known as “WEB” will be found on both campuses. It be the first Disney Parks ride-through attraction to feature this iconic hero.
You enter the facilities to find open house of WEB in progress. The aspiring inventors here are excited to invite you for a test drive of their latest invention: the “Web Slinger” vehicle which allows you to sling webs just like Spider-Man. The attraction gives you a taste of what it’s like to have actual super powers as you help Spider-Man collect Spider-Bots that have run amok.
Pym Test Kitchen
Just as Ant-Man and The Wasp use “Pym Particles” to grow and shrink just about anything, Pym Technologies is using the latest innovations to grow and shrink food at this eatery! It seems likely that this will appear on campuses in California and Paris.
Disney’s Hotel New York – The Art of Marvel
The new lodging celebrates 80 years of Marvel storytelling in a typical New York setting, with a contemporary Art Deco style inspired by a New York art gallery.
The Theme

Collaborating with more 50 artists from Marvel Comics and Marvel Studios, more than 300 pieces of artwork showcasing the wealth of the Marvel Universe – comic book covers, posters, illustrations from films, storyboards, original sketches and more – including never-before-seen and exclusive pieces.
