Attention all Disney enthusiasts! Something magical—though somewhat fiery—awaits you at Disneyland Paris. If you have plans to visit the enchanting park soon, prepare for some dazzling but intrusive pyrotechnics. Yes, fireball bombs are set to light up the sky, and while they might catch you by surprise, rest assured, it’s all part of the spectacle and 100% safe.
Walt Disney Studios Park, soon to be rebranded as Disney Adventure World, is undergoing significant transformations. Announced by Disney CEO Bob Iger back in 2019, these changes bring both excitement and a few challenges. While originally intended expansions like the Star Wars area and Toy Story Playland have been dropped, guests will be thrilled to know that the World of Frozen is under construction, complete with a Tangled attraction! However, don’t expect to see larger-than-life characters like Buzz Lightyear just yet, as they are currently being refurbished.
Among the park’s eye-catching updates is the brand-new show, “Alice & The Queen of Hearts: Back to Wonderland.” Set to debut on May 25, 2024, this BMX spectacle replaces the long-gone Moteurs…Action!: Stunt Show Spectacular. Expect a vibrant showdown featuring acrobats and BMX riders, with audience participation determining the winner of this colorful, pop-rock face-off.
However, there’s much more beneath the surface. The show will feature substantial pyrotechnic and smoke effects, helping paint the sky with mesmerizing colors but potentially interfering with the thematic integrity of nearby areas, like Avengers Campus. Recent tests have shown the fireballs create stunning visuals but also bring disruptive sounds and smells.
The park is buzzing with anticipation, but visitors should also be prepared for potential crowd-related challenges, particularly with the upcoming Paris Olympics. To ensure a smooth experience, secure a date-based ticket for guaranteed entry and enjoy those extra savings for an additional churro or Mickey pretzel!
