When Is World Princess Week 2026 At Disneyland Paris?

World Princess Week has just been confirmed as running from 15th to 23rd August 2026 in Disneyland Park. The event has been confirmed with only three days to go, and although is a relatively small seasonal addition to the wider Disneyland Paris experience, it’s still short notice if you plan on including the new experiences and only have one day in Disneyland Park.

World Princess Week is an annual event and great for any princess fans in your party. Anyone visiting during these nine days will have extra Princess-themed entertainment, photo opportunities, food and drink to look out for around Disneyland Park.

What is Disney Princess Musical Memories at Disneyland Paris?

Disney Princess Musical Memories is live entertainment at Castle Stage featuring a medley of well-known Disney Princess songs. The music is set to be performed live by a singer alongside Disney Princess Characters as part of the World Princess Week celebration.

Musical Memories is newly announced for the 2026 event, so it’s definitely something to experience if you’ve been to Princess Week before and are looking for something new. Even if you’re just walking by, it should give the Castle Area a different feel next week. To find out the daily showtimes, check in the app; while some sources are listing afternoon times, it’s always best to check on the day as weather can impact the shows.

Which Disney Princess Characters can you see during World Princess Week 2026?

Disney have announced that there will be:

  • photo locations featuring Pocahontas, Snow White and Merida, along with an experience involving Belle.

  • Princesses will be waving farewell from the balcony at night

There will be character moments at the entrance to Disneyland Park too. Minnie is due to appear from the balcony of Main Street Station in the morning, while Disney Princess Characters will appear there in the evening to see guests off at the end of the day.

What else is happening for World Princess Week at Disneyland Paris?

World Princess Week also includes a special Moana Magic Shot and limited-time Princess-inspired food and drink. These smaller additions round out the programme alongside the entertainment and character experiences.

The Moana Magic Shot allows guests to pose for a photograph in which Moana is added sailing into the finished image. It's another option for families who enjoy collecting unusual photos from their Disneyland Paris trips, particularly if meeting a specific Princess Character isn't the main priority.

Food and drink will also be part of the celebration, with Disneyland Paris promising sweet treats and refreshing drinks inspired by Disney Princess Characters.

Are Disney Princess Week Events Included With Tickets?

Yes, the events for Disney Princess Week going on around the park are included with standard entry, but you do need the right ticket to get into Disneyland Park. If you have a one day ticket exclusively for Disney Adventure World this will not give you access to Disneyland Park and Princess week is exclusively happening in Disneyland Park. To enjoy the extra events on as part of Princess Week you need a ticket that gives you entrance to:

  • Disneyland Park only

  • Or that lets you park hop between both Disneyland Paris parks.

If you have bought tickets to spend one day in Disney Adventure World and one day in Disneyland Park, be sure to get in all the Princess Week experiences, including the Magic Shot with Moana, while you are in Disneyland Park.

Is World Princess Week a major change at Disneyland Paris?

No, World Princess Week is best viewed as a limited seasonal addition to the summer line-up for guests who happen to be visiting during its August dates, rather than a major change to a Disneyland Paris holiday. It’s a week of additional entertainment, character moments, themed food and a photo opportunity inside Disneyland Park.

The appeal is less about reorganising your entire day around World Princess Week and more about knowing that there are some extra experiences worth watching for while you're already in Disneyland Park. For Disney Princess fans in particular, Disney Princess Musical Memories and the additional character-focused locations could be worthwhile additions to an August park day.

Magic In A Minute

If your Disneyland Paris visit already falls between 15 and 23 August, World Princess Week gives you some extra experiences to add to your Disneyland Park day. The most notable addition is Disney Princess Musical Memories, joined by character photo locations, and the Moana Magic Shot. It's a relatively small seasonal celebration, but for Disney Princess fans visiting at exactly the right time, these extra details could make an August day in Disneyland Park that little bit more special.
