World of Frozen is a themed land at Disney Adventure World, the second park of Disneyland Paris in Marne-la-Vallée, France. A full-scale recreation of Arendelle, the kingdom from Walt Disney Animation Studios' Frozen (2013) and Frozen II (2019), it opened on March 29, 2026 — the same day the park, formerly Walt Disney Studios Park, was officially renamed Disney Adventure World.[1] The land is operating as of November 2026 and is in its first Disney Enchanted Christmas season, which runs from November 7, 2026 to January 6, 2027.[2]
World of Frozen stands at the far end of Adventure Way, the park's new central promenade, on the shore of Adventure Bay. The village is built at life size beneath the North Mountain, a structure about 36 metres high topped by Elsa's Ice Palace, with Arendelle Castle, a clock tower and the harbour of Arendelle Bay completing the scene. In story terms the land is set during the Snowflower Festival, a celebration of the moment Anna saved Elsa through an act of true love.
History
A Frozen land was part of the €2 billion expansion plan for Walt Disney Studios Park announced in 2018, alongside what became Avengers Campus and a third area that was later reworked. The land was developed under the working name Frozen Land before Disney confirmed the final name, World of Frozen, and on April 12, 2024 announced that the park would be renamed Disney Adventure World when the land opened.[3]
The opening date of March 29, 2026 was announced on November 24, 2025, covering both World of Frozen and Adventure Way.[3] The land opened on schedule on March 29, 2026, as the centrepiece of the park's relaunch, nearly doubling the second park's footprint around the new Adventure Bay lake.[4] In November 2026 the land received its first seasonal overlay for Disney Enchanted Christmas, with Nordic-inspired decorations throughout Arendelle.[2]
Attractions and entertainment
Frozen Ever After is the land's headline attraction, a family musical boat ride entered beneath the village clock tower. Boats travel through a snowy forest and Troll Valley, climb to Elsa's Ice Palace for the "Let It Go" sequence, and finish in Arendelle Bay beneath snowflake-shaped fireworks, using Audio-Animatronics figures, projection mapping and lighting effects. There is no height restriction, and a single-rider queue operates. Disney lists a refurbishment closure for the ride from September 13 to 24, 2027.[2][4]
A Celebration in Arendelle is a daytime show performed on Arendelle Bay several times a day, with Anna, Elsa, Olaf and Kristoff arriving aboard Viking longships, to music written for Paris by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez.[4] Inside Arendelle Castle, A Royal Encounter offers meetings and photographs with Anna and Elsa; entry is free but requires joining a virtual queue in the Disneyland Paris app on the day, and places fill quickly. Characters including Olaf, Kristoff, Oaken and the troll Mossie also appear around the village.[2]
Dining and shops
Nordic Crowns Tavern is the land's quick-service restaurant, themed as Arendelle's seafaring tavern and decorated with paintings and artefacts telling the royal family's story. It serves customisable Nordic-inspired plates — with around sixteen possible combinations of proteins, accompaniments and sauces — plus frosty desserts such as blue sorbet and snowflake treats. No reservation is needed. Shopping is led by Arendelle Boutique, presented as the toy shop that once made toys for the young Anna and Elsa and now sells keepsakes and Nordic knitwear, and the Fjord View Shop, where guests can "adopt" an interactive baby troll that reacts at points around the land.[4][2]
