Shanghai Disney Resort and Hong Kong Disneyland have reopened their gates and Disney World and Disneyland have announced their plans to reopen next month – and now Disneyland Paris had also announced a reopening date.
The iconic Sleeping Beauty Castle of Disneyland Paris will once again welcome guests to its towering spires and sprawling vistas when the resort begins its phased reopening on July 15.
Since its temporary closure in March of this year, guests of all ages have been eagerly awaiting the reopening of our premiere European destination. Come July 15, Disneyland Paris will begin a phased reopening with visitors able to return to Disneyland Park, Walt Disney Studios Park, Disney’s Newport Bay Club hotel, and Disney Village.
Disney continues to prioritize the health and safety of cast members and guests. In line with French government and health authorities’ recommendations, the phased reopening of Disneyland Paris will present a deliberate approach with enhanced health and safety measures tailored to our specific environment. This will include limits on attendance and require advanced ticketing and reservations to accommodate controlled guest density that aligns with government guidance on physical distancing.
Over the next few weeks, they will be taking steps to prepare Disneyland Paris for a successful reopening, from visible changes to accommodate physical distancing, to new training for all of their cast members.
“As President of Disneyland Paris, I’ve been fortunate to work alongside our team of dedicated cast members who have demonstrated tremendous commitment to preserving the magic for our guests and fans during our unprecedented closure,” said Disneyland Paris President Natacha Rafalski. “The last several months have tested us and our community – both personally and professionally – but together we have persevered with optimism and determination. We are grateful for the resilience of our cast members and local community, the enthusiasm of our guests and fans, and the positive momentum of the many reopenings in the tourism industry throughout Europe. We’ve been so touched by our guests around the world who’ve found creative ways to maintain their connection to Disneyland Paris from home.”
With a phased approach, some experiences will change and others will return at a later date, but the magic that Disney’s cast is world renowned for will remain. More information on the enhanced health and safety measures are available on www.disneylandparis.com.
