As part of the €2 billion investment plan announced in 2018, we continue to reinvent this park with a fresh creative vision. At the end of the expansion – with the opening of Adventure Way, Adventure Bay and World or Frozen in 2026, and later an immersive world based on The Lion King – we will have redesigned more than 90% of the park's offerings since it opened in 2002 and roughly doubled its surface area to make it a truly unmissable experience!”, according to Natacha Rafalski, Chairwoman of Disneyland Paris.
