Entrance to Disney Adventure World at Disneyland® Paris, with its illuminated gate at night.

Since 29 March 2026, Walt Disney Studios Park has become Disney Adventure World, the second Disney Park at Disneyland® Paris. This reimagined park brings together worlds inspired by Disney, Pixar and MARVEL stories, including World of Frozen, Adventure Way, Marvel Avengers Campus and Worlds of Pixar.

For families, this transformation changes the way a visit to Disneyland® Paris should be planned. Between the new attractions, encounters with Disney Characters, meals, breaks and the journey from the airport, a few key points can really help you organise your day more easily.

This guide helps you understand what to plan before visiting Disney Adventure World with children, especially if you are arriving in Paris via Charles de Gaulle Airport or Orly Airport.

What is Disney Adventure World?

Disney Adventure World is one of the two Disney Parks at Disneyland® Paris, alongside Disneyland® Park. It is located in Marne-la-Vallée, around 32 km east of central Paris.

The park offers several immersive worlds. Visitors can explore World of Frozen, Marvel Avengers Campus, Worlds of Pixar, Adventure Way and World Premiere Plaza.

For families, the benefit is being able to plan the visit around different types of experiences: family attractions, shows, character encounters, restaurants, shops and moments to take a break.

World of Frozen: an area to plan ahead for with children

World of Frozen is located within Disney Adventure World. It is inspired by the Kingdom of Arendelle and offers an immersive experience in the world of Elsa, Anna and their friends.

The main attraction is Frozen Ever After, a family-friendly boat ride through Arendelle inspired by the world of Frozen. Disneyland® Paris presents it as suitable for all heights, although expectant mothers may not ride.

It is therefore an important attraction to identify if you are travelling with children.

Can you meet Elsa and Anna?

Yes. Elsa and Anna can be met in World of Frozen as part of the Royal Encounter. Access is via a virtual queue, particularly through the Disneyland® Paris mobile app. Booking is required, free of charge and subject to availability.

For families, this is something to check at the start of the day. Places are limited and may run out quickly.

Marvel, Pixar and Frozen: worlds to identify before your visit

Disney Adventure World is not limited to World of Frozen. The park also brings together other worlds that are very familiar to families, such as Marvel Avengers Campus and Worlds of Pixar.

For children who love superheroes, Marvel Avengers Campus brings them into the world of the Avengers. For families drawn to Pixar films, Worlds of Pixar extends the visit around characters and stories they already know well.

When visiting with children, the benefit is to set a few priorities before arrival: World of Frozen for Elsa and Anna fans, Marvel Avengers Campus for superhero lovers, and Worlds of Pixar to add variety to the day.

Where can you take a break at Disney Adventure World?

Disney Adventure World offers several dining options. In World of Frozen, Nordic Crowns Tavern is a quick-service restaurant and, according to Disneyland® Paris, no reservation is required.

At Adventure Way, The Regal View Restaurant & Lounge offers a meal with Disney Princesses in a setting overlooking the lake. The official page mentions Belle, Aurora and Ariel as examples of princesses who may be present.

With children, it is useful to identify restaurants before your visit, so you can better plan breaks during the day.

Is Disney Adventure World suitable for children?

Yes, several experiences at Disney Adventure World are designed with families in mind. Disneyland® Paris indicates that Frozen Ever After and Raiponce Tangled Spin are suitable for all ages.

This does not mean that every attraction will be suitable for every child. Some children may be more sensitive to sounds, movement, darkness or waiting times. Before going on an attraction, it is advisable to check its official description and any access conditions.

The goal is not to do everything, but to create a smoother day with time for breaks.

Plan your journey from the airport in advance
