Disneyland Paris has confirmed that its long-awaited World of Frozen will debut in spring 2026 at Disney Adventure World (the new name for the Walt Disney Studios park).
The announcement was highlighted both in a Destination D23 fan event update and through a new behind-the-scenes video, which showcased key elements of construction now taking shape in Paris.
Once the doors open to World of Frozen, for the first time in the Paris resort’s history, guests will encounter more than just Sleeping Beauty Castle - thanks to the addition of Arendelle Castle.
Guests will be able to wander Arendelle Castle's royal corridors and, even, enjoy an audience with Queen Elsa and Queen Anna.
Another focal point will be Elsa’s Ice Palace, newly installed at the top of the North Mountain within the land.
Imagineers explained that the towering structure is composed of over 30 individual pieces, creating a glittering beacon visible from afar.
“With its height and scale, the ice palace will for sure become a beacon that guests walk towards as they approach this new immersive area,” the Disney update explained.
For Disneyland Paris guests, the 2026 debut will mark a major milestone in Disney Adventure World’s transformation.
