NEWS: Opening Dates and Changes Announced for Disneyland Paris

Disneyland Paris has been going through a sort of Renaissance. Walt Disney Studios Park recently changed its name to Disney Adventure World with a brand new look, new lands, new rides, and more.

But even more work is also being done at the resort at Disney Village, which is getting a complete makeover. The shopping and dining district is undergoing a MASSIVE refurbishment, but it’s almost done with its first phase of work, and Disneyland Paris has announced some opening and reopening dates for its shops and restaurants.

Over the past few years, Disney Village has been undergoing a massive reimagining that includes touching up and redesigning building façades, adding new shops, and adding new restaurants. Speaking of shops, a brand NEW shop called Disney Wonders will be opening on September 22nd. This boutique will feature artwork inspired by Star Wars, Peter Pan, and Toy Story. The storytelling continues with two chandeliers hanging overhead with more than 40 character illustrations, as well as the checkout areas celebrating Disney and Pixar.

Disney Wonders will join existing Disney Village shops Deco by Disney, Disney Glamour, Disney Style, World of Disney, the LEGO Store, Pelé Soccer, and more.

Of course, we’re even MORE interested in the new restaurant coming to Disney Village, Casa Giulia, which will offer an Italian dining experience. The restaurant will feature two levels and a menu of Italian favorites, cocktails, and more. There will also be a to-go experience called Giulia Express where you can grab pizza by the slice, focaccia, pastries, and gelato. Casa Giulia and Giulia Express will open at the end of 2026.

The restaurant Vapiano will undergo a full refurbishment at the end of 2026, with a design that will be brighter, more contemporary, and with more natural lighting. Disneyland Paris is also updating its terrace spaces and landscaping, plus it will have a children’s play area on the upper level. The work is expected to be completed in early 2027.

Annette’s Diner has also been given an extensive refurbishment with a refreshed 1950s theme, with colorful booths inspired by vintage cars, restored jukeboxes, new decor, and a refreshed dining room. The restaurant is expected to reopen in 2027.

The Disney Village cinema is becoming Pathé Cinema theater and will get a major refurbishment in 2027. This will include entirely renovated auditoriums with recliner seats, projection system upgrades, a new Pathé Café, more food and beverages, a newly redesigned Häagen-Dazs with an outdoor terrace, and a new Pathé Games area. The work will take place in phases, so the theater will remain open while construction work is being done.

Disney Enchanted Christmas is coming to Disney Village later this year, with new seasonal decor like Christmas trees, holiday lighting, and new photo locations. A new interactive holiday activity is also coming to Disney Village: you’ll be looking for characters hidden within giant snowflakes throughout the shopping and dining district. Spot them all and get an exclusive holiday ornament!

As the first phase of Disney Village’s reimagining finishes, the next phase will begin in the “South Block” part of the area, which will include new architecture, refreshed experiences, and new offerings. We’ll keep an eye out for more updates, so stay tuned to DFB for more.
