As the second park at Disneyland Paris enters a new chapter, marked by exciting new experiences, an expansive upgrade, and a fresh creative direction, its entrance area has been completely transformed into “World Premiere,” a one-of-a-kind spot set to open on May 15.
Opening on May 15, 2025
When guests step into this impressive building, they will feel like VIPs at a glamorous film premiere in the heart of Hollywood, surrounded by a starry sky at any time of day. They’ll also discover immersive worlds that bring them into the heart of their favorite Disney, Marvel, and Pixar stories.
The interior of the former Disney Studio 1 soundstage (video) has been fully reimagined, with new décor, renovated spaces, and a brand-new storyline. Guests will find themselves on an authentic Hollywood Boulevard, complete with palm trees, stars on the ground, beautiful architecture, and iconic movie theaters.
There are many hidden references to Los Angeles, Disney, and other park experiences throughout the sets, including a stunning skyline that serves as the backdrop for the entire building.
At the end of the main walkway, guests will be greeted by the grand façade of the Disney Theater, with its massive illuminated sign weighing nearly three tons, inviting them to continue their adventure in Disney Adventure World and its immersive lands. World Premiere will offer a variety of exciting experiences.
Disney also shared pictures of the new Cast Member costumes.
Guests will have the chance to dine under the stars at any time of day in the stylish outdoor setting of The Hollywood Gardens Restaurant, offering delicious quick-service meals. A selection of snacks, hot drinks, and cold drinks will also be available at the Searchlight kiosk.
For those looking to shop, Mickey’s of Hollywood Boutique will be the must-visit store at World Premiere. Inspired by classic American department stores from the 1920s, this boutique will offer a wide range of products based on Disney stories brought to life in the park’s immersive worlds.
After leaving the building, guests will enter World Premiere Plaza, a lively area inspired by Broadway and the West End. This vibrant space brings together several theaters, currently celebrating Disney Animation and Pixar stories, in a chic setting. The Walt Disney Imagineering Paris teams are hard at work transforming the park’s former central square into a welcoming, energetic space.
This project focuses on redesigning pathways, creating colorful murals, adding new landscaped areas, and introducing Art Deco-inspired street furniture to bring harmony to World Premiere Plaza. The transformation will be completed in phases, with the final work finished before the park’s new areas open in 2026.
