Disneyland Paris will begin a phased re-opening on July 15, with a reduced capacity, enhanced health and safety protocols and a new online reservation system.

Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios Park with their popular mix of rides and attractions, restaurants and shops, will resume most operations.

Disney’s Newport Bay Club hotel and Disney Village will also re-open on this date.

In addition, and subject to the continued evolution of the situation, Disneyland Paris also announced the scheduled phased re-opening of several other Disney hotels including Disney’s Hotel Cheyenne on July 20, Disney’s Hotel Santa Fe on August 3 and the Disneyland Hotel on September 7.

Disney’s Sequoia Lodge hotel and Disney’s Davy Crocket Ranch will remain closed during the summer with re-opening dates announced at a later time.

Natacha Rafalski, President of Disneyland Paris:

“All of us at Disneyland Paris are excited to be on the path to reopening over the next few weeks. We are looking forward to the return of our cast members and reopening our gates for guests to once again enjoy.”

Safety Measures and Experience

The phased re-opening will incorporate enhanced health and safety measures implemented for both cast members and guests. This will include limits on attendance and require advanced ticketing and reservations to accommodate controlled guest density that supports government guidance on physical distancing. As a result, some experiences, shows or events will not be available or may be modified upon re-opening depending on the evolution of the safety and sanitary measures and recommendations from public authorities. This includes offerings such as Disney Stars on Parade and Disney Illuminations night time spectacular which will return at a later date.

The Lion King: Rhythms of the Pride Lands and Jungle Book Jive will return later in the summer. Character meet and greets will be temporarily unavailable, however characters will be in the parks in new ways to entertain and delight guests. Other experiences such as playgrounds and makeover experiences will remain temporarily unavailable. Additionally, all FastPass services will be suspended in order to allow for the necessary queue management on attractions.

Cast members and guests ages 11 and older will also be required to wear face coverings while at the resort. 

Ticketing and Reservation System

As there will be a limited number of park tickets available each day during the initial re-opening, a new online reservation system will be available in early July. To ensure admission, guests in possession of or buying non-dated tickets, and Annual Pass holders, will need to register on this new online reservation system to obtain a reservation for park entry prior to their arrival. Guests who already have a dated ticket, do not need to register and reserve a date. Likewise, guests with packages that include park admittance will receive admission for the duration of their stay and do not need to use the new online reservation system.

Tickets and packages are now on sale via the resort’s website, call centre and official travel partner channels, with a limited number of tickets available each day during the initial re-opening phase. Ticket sales will not be available on site.

To provide guests with extra flexibility, new booking conditions are now available to include cancellations and modifications without fees (excluding transport) on stays in the Disney hotels anytime up to seven days before the arrival date.
