In Marne-la-Vallée, in Seine-et-Marne, Disneyland Paris brings together two Disney Parks, Disney Village — a hub of restaurants and shops — and several Disney Hotels for a family, couple, or friends’ outing or getaway in 2026. Iconic attractions, new releases, shows, parades, and seasonal experiences offer days that feel vastly different. The key is to pick activities that truly suit your group, then keep a bit of flexibility for wait times and last‑minute changes to the plan.
The best things to do at Disneyland Paris right now hinge on recent openings, scheduled shows, the season, and temporary events. This first selection brings together the news you should know before you go: new attractions, anticipated returns, limited-time entertainment, or experiences offered only on specific dates.
Seasoned visitors can spot what’s changed since their last visit, while first-timers will benefit from pairing a new feature with a few timeless classics. Because hours, availability and access conditions can still change, the Application Mobile Disneyland Paris provides a useful supplement to the information in each article.

Age is only a rough guide. Darkness, noise, pace, and the presence of striking figures also influence the choice. A child drawn to pirates may not react the same as another in the same age group; it’s wiser to review each experience's content and have a nearby alternative in mind.

Musicals, indoor shows, stunt displays, cavalcades, parades, and nighttime productions play a major role in the two Disney Parks. These events offer a fresh take on Disney stories and provide welcome breaks during a day that can feel long.
Indoor blockbuster productions are a smart fit for visitors who want to focus on the stage and the music, while the parades require a bit more planning to snag a good viewing spot. Sound and light effects can be intensified for certain performances. Disneyland Paris also offers a different nighttime show in each Disney Park, performed at the same time: two days give guests the chance to see both without having to choose.

The Disney Characters on offer vary by park, season, and the day’s schedule; it’s best to focus on one or two priorities when rides and attractions remain the main draw.
The Disneyland Paris app displays the timetables and the available options. Some meet-and-greets require joining a virtual queue, within the limit of available slots. Families who prize photo opportunities can tailor their itinerary around the time slot they secure, while others will keep these encounters as a potential option to pick up along the way.
Mickey, the Disney Princesses, Marvel Super Heroes, Pixar characters, or Star Wars characters... Meet-and-greets are among the marquee experiences at Disneyland Paris. Where to find them, how to book, and how to enjoy the Disney PhotoPass? Here’s the lay of the land. [Read more]
The Disneyland Paris program evolves throughout the year, with seasonal decor, parades, shows, menus and Disney character meet-and-greets tied to the seasons.

Halloween 2026 at Disneyland Paris: shows, activities... the season’s lineup

Many attractions take place entirely or mostly indoors, while indoor shows let you stay dry for part of the visit. Covered passages, shops and restaurants round out these options between experiences.
Outdoor shows and some activities may still be altered, delayed, or canceled when weather conditions require it. A dedicated rainy-day route helps limit time spent outdoors, but wait times are likely to rise quickly for the park’s most popular covered attractions.
Rain at Disneyland Paris? No need to call it a day: both Disney Parks offer plenty of indoor attractions, covered shows, shops and restaurants to enjoy your visit dry. The trick is to tailor your itinerary so the weather doesn’t derail your plans. [Read more]
The dining experience can become a full-fledged activity when the décor, the service, or the presence of Personnages Disney extends the world of the Parcs Disney. Restaurants with table service, buffets, meals with Disney Characters and themed venues offer longer breaks to be woven into the itinerary rather than tacked on at the last minute.
These experiences are ideal for visitors who want to slow down or mark a special moment. Fast service or ordering via Click & Collect is usually a better fit when the priority is the attractions. For the most sought-after restaurants, booking in advance helps you avoid planning an entire day around an uncertain time slot.

Located between the Disney Parks and Disney Hotels, Disney Village is accessible without an admission ticket. With restaurants, shops, a cinema, entertainment and activities, it’s the place to extend your visit, occupy your first evening, or plan something before you depart.
Disney Village will mainly appeal to visitors with a few extra hours or those looking to recapture the Disneyland Paris vibe without dedicating another day to the Disney Parks. Paid activities, opening times and access may vary, especially during the site's various renovation phases.
Disneyland Paris has laid out, in a September 2026 press release, the next phase of Disney Village’s transformation. Casa Giulia, the renovated Pathé cinema, the return of Annette’s Diner, a refreshed Vapiano and the future "Bloc Sud" will steer construction through 2027, while Rainforest Café will close its doors for good by the end of the year. [Read more]
In September 2026, Disney Village extends the summer with free concerts, street performances, and musical evenings just steps from Disneyland Paris. A lineup to discover throughout the month, perfect for enjoying the atmosphere with family or friends. [Read more]
A single day lets you sample a curated set of must-see experiences in a Disney Park, or split your time between the two with a ticket that suits. Tackling both Disney Parks in one day demands a brisk pace and smart choices among rides and shows, but it’s a chance to catch even more magic by exploring both worlds.
Two days offer a more balanced pace for exploring the two Disney Parks and catching both of their nighttime shows. Three days or more make it easier to take breaks, enjoy themed meals, and relive a favored experience. A stay at a Disney Hotel also grants access to Extra Magic Hours and to Disney Character Meet-and-Greets in the hotels, except at the Disney Davy Crockett Ranch. Booking early helps secure a better selection of dates and prices; updated rates can be found on DisneylandParis.com.
FAQ about Things to Do at Disneyland Paris
What are the best activities to enjoy at Disneyland Paris right now?
Fresh openings, iconic rides, dazzling shows, Disney Character Meet-and-Greets, and temporary events together define the main options. The ideal plan depends on which Disney Park you’re visiting, the ages of the participants, how much thrill you want, and how much time you have.
Which Disney Park should you pick for a first visit?
Disneyland Park centers on the Castle, the five lands, and classic attractions. Disney Adventure World brings together worlds inspired by Frozen, Pixar, and MARVEL, plus several newer experiences. Both Parks offer activities for all ages; the choice mainly hinges on the themes you’re most drawn to.
Can you visit both Disney Parks in one day?
Yes, with a two-park ticket. To plan your day, pick the must-see experiences in each Park according to your interests and showtimes. This approach moves at a brisk pace and requires decisions; a two-day visit offers more flexibility.
What activities are best for young children?
Rides with no height restrictions, shows, parades, and Disney Character Meet-and-Greets are excellent anchors. Darkness, noise, and motion matter almost as much as the posted height requirement—checking each experience’s details helps avoid something too intense.
Are shows included with the admission?
Shows and parades are included with a valid Park admission, subject to seating availability. Premium access or reserved spots may be offered for certain performances as an optional add-on.
Should you book activities in advance?
Most attractions operate with the standard queue on the day. Some restaurants, character meals, shows, or Disney Character Meet-and-Greets may require a reservation, guaranteed access, or a virtual queue. Details are available in the Disneyland Paris Mobile App.
Can you enjoy Disneyland Paris without a ticket to the Disney Parks?
Disney Village is accessible without a Park ticket and features restaurants, shops, a cinema, and entertainment. A select number of Disney Hotel restaurants and bars may also welcome non-guests, depending on access rules, hours, and availability.
Where can you check available activities on your visit day?
The Disneyland Paris Mobile App and the official calendar show hours, wait times, closures, and scheduled shows. It’s worth checking again in the morning, as weather, maintenance, or operational conditions can change activity availability.
