Disney Adventure World new rides: what else is there beyond World of Frozen attractions?

When Disney Adventure World opens on 29th March 2026, many fans will head straight towards World of Frozen. It’s become the main draw and there is so much hype around this land and the attractions it has to offer. However, there is so much more going on in Disney Adventure World on this date, so we are taking a look at the 2 new rides opening along with the multiple other attractions including character meet and greets and shows.

Complete Disney Adventure World new ride and attraction list

Here is the complete list of permanent new rides, and experiences that will open with Disney Adventure World when the reimagined second gate at Disneyland Paris opens on 29th March 2026:

These experiences will be found in the 3 new areas of the park also opening as part of the reimaging of Walt Disney Studios Park into Disney Adventure World on 29th March:

1. Adventure Way

2. Adventure Bay and Bay Lake

3. World of Frozen.

Disney Adventure World Map

The scope of Disney Adventure World is lost in the midst of Arendelle hype, and while the World of Frozen is a huge reason to visit, the reimagining and scope of areas to visit, transcends just this one land. Here is the map of Disney Adventure World:

There is a lot of the new park to explore before reaching Arendelle which is located at the back of Bay Lake and is the furthest walk from the entrance.

Adventure Way: new experiences and theming

Adventure Way is the central hub of the park and you will find a lot to explore and experience here, including the 1 other new ride opening alongside Frozen Ever After:

• Meet Mickey

• Princess Calvacade

• Raiponce Tangled Spin

• Musical Moment with Rapunzel and Flynn

• Disney Marching Band

This area is the central hub of the park, and like Main Street USA in Magic Kingdom, it will be home to Disney Adventure World’s current Meet Mickey experience. Mickey even has a new outfit with pictures offering a backdrop of Bay Lake. Check out this reel of andismagic.n.snacks meet and greet experience:

Another exciting meet and greet which is worth planning in to your day: Musical Moment with Rapunzel and Flynn. For any Tangled fan, this is just as exciting as World of Frozen, as there is no ride or meet and greet exclusively designed for Rapunzel in the US parks.

This is also the area where you will find the daytime parade route for the Princess Cavalcade and Disney Marching Band.

One extra detail worth noting is that Adventure Way will also have its own original soundtrack, created specifically for this new entrance and central Main Street like area of the park. Although it’s a smaller addition than a ride or restaurant, it reinforces that Disney is building a more immersive permanent environment rather than simply adding one new land.

Bay Lake: home to a new night-time show

Disney Cascade of Lights is the new night-time show coming to Disney Adventure World, and from the 3rd April will be the only night-time drone show in Disneyland Paris. This is a 20 minutes night-time show experience which is going to be worth factoring into your plans. Set on Adventure Bay Lake, UK visitors will be able to see the display of fireworks, drones, aquatic drones, and water fountains from all around.

There is a paid viewing spot, which may be worth considering in the first opening weeks if you’re looking for a calmer viewing experience.

Dining outside Arendelle

There is also a significant permanent food and dining expansion bringing a range of new dining experiences to Disney Adventure World. Disneyland Paris says the 29 March 2026 opening brings 15 new dining locations, including The Regal View Restaurant & Lounge on Adventure Way. There will also be a new Disney Princess character dining experience, and plenty of new snacks to try.

This is a range of the dining experiences to consider planning as part of your day:

World of Frozen: New attractions list

World of Frozen is offering half of the new rides and a few of the new attractions including:

A Celebration in Arendelle is the show where visitors will be able to catch a glimpse of the animatronic Olaf. It’s a roughly 20-minute show that will run throughout the day, so if you’re heading to Arendelle it is worth sticking around to catch the show.

The Recontre Royale character meet and greet will give visitors the chance to meet Princess Anna and Queen Else, but you’ll need to get in the Virtual Queue for this attraction.

Frozen Ever After is operating with a Single Rider line, which may eventually become the fastest way to experience this ride.

The immersion of this area is what has so many UK visitors excited, and it is worth planning this area into your visit. However if you are visiting in the opening few days, Disneyland Paris have already suggested that entry to World of Frozen is not guaranteed even with a valid park ticket.

Magic in a minute

While World of Frozen is clearly a huge pull for many UK visitors, Disney Adventure World is not just getting one new land. It is getting a new identity with new theming throughout and Arendelle is going to be but one adventure for UK visitors to experience. A new family ride, a new lake hub and a much bigger permanent dining offer is all part of the massive ride and experience expansion that could change how UK visitors plan their time in Disneyland Paris’ second park.
