When will Disneyland Paris Reopen?
Dates for the reopening of Disneyland Paris are yet to be revealed. The website explains: “We look forward to welcoming you back to Disneyland Paris and will announce our official reopening date as soon as possible. Our reopening plans will reflect a cautious approach intended to prioritize the health and safety of our Guests and Cast Members while delivering our signature Disney guest experience.”
How much will tickets cost?
Last year tickets cost between £76 and £217 on the gate depending on how many parks were included in the ticket, while park, hotel and Eurostar deals started from £159pp. Ticket prices currently include Mini tickets, which allow any off-peak travel, from £52.51 for adults, up to Super Magic tickets, which let you visit any day of the year for £79.21. These can still be booked on the website as they can be used on future dates for when the park reopens. Already have tickets booked prior to the park opening? Disneyland is allowing full refunds or vouchers for the cost if traveling before June 14.
Will hotels also be opening?
The new Disney’s Hotel New York – The Art of Marvel will no longer open on the planned date of June 14. Anyone with stays booked up until October can get a full refund. The rest of the hotels are expected to open along with the park opening, although this depends on safety regulations and capacity limitations.
What are the new rules being put into place?
New safety and social distancing guidelines are yet to be released. However, other theme parks are introducing new measures such as temperature checks at the gates, contactless payment encouraged and additional hygiene stations throughout the park. Some are enforcing the wearing of face masks while others are opening at a limited capacity, such as 30 percent at first. Rides and attractions are likely to be affected – enclosed rides may remain closed while rollercoasters could operate with empty rows between each family. Legoland is also reopening from July 4, with whole rows left empty between guests to ensure social distancing. The new £3.5bn theme park dubbed “UK Disney World” has moved a step closer to being built, after announcing a public consultation on their plans this summer. The London Resort, which will be built on 535 acres of land on a former cement works in Swanscombe, Kent, is expected to open in 2024.
