A resort three decades in the making
Disneyland Paris opened its gates on 12 April 1992 as Euro Disney Resort, later renamed Disneyland Paris in 1994. A second gate, Walt Disney Studios Park, followed in 2002 and is now being transformed into Disney Adventure World, with new lands still arriving through 2026 and beyond.

Frequently asked questions about visiting
Which park should I visit first, Disneyland Park or Disney Adventure World?⌄
Most first-time visitors prioritise Disneyland Park for the classic castle, Main Street, and family favourites like Big Thunder Mountain and It's a Small World. Disney Adventure World (formerly Walt Disney Studios Park) suits fans of Marvel, Frozen, and Ratatouille, plus thrill rides like the Tower of Terror. With two days, most guests split one day per park.
Is Disney Premier Access worth buying?⌄
It depends on your dates and tolerance for queuing. On busy days — weekends, school holidays, and summer — Premier Access can save hours on the most popular rides. On quieter weekdays in low season, standard queues are often short enough that it's not essential.
What's the best time of year to visit Disneyland Paris?⌄
Mid-week in September, late November to early December (before Christmas crowds), or January and early February tend to have the shortest queues and lowest hotel prices. French and UK school holidays, plus Easter and summer, are the busiest and most expensive periods.
Do I need a car, or is public transport enough?⌄
You don't need a car. The RER A train, Eurostar, and TGV all connect directly to Marne-la-Vallée – Chessy station, right at the resort entrance, and most hotels are within walking distance of the parks.
Can I bring my own food and drinks into the parks?⌄
Yes — small personal snacks, sandwiches, and bottled drinks are allowed and commonly brought in. Glass containers and large picnic-style meals are discouraged, and all bags are screened at security.
Is there a minimum height to ride the thrill rides?⌄
Yes, several attractions have height requirements ranging from around 81 cm to 140 cm, including Big Thunder Mountain (102 cm), Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain (132 cm), and Indiana Jones et le Temple du Péril (140 cm). See our Highlights guide for the full list.
