Disneyland Paris: A Magical European Destination
LOCATION & HISTORY:
Located 32 km east of Paris in Marne-la-Vallee, France. Opened in 1992, this is Europe’s most visited theme park
resort. Many say it is the best Disney park of all! Why not visit Europe, and visit Disney?
TWO THEME PARKS:
1. Disneyland Park – Built around the iconic Sleeping Beauty Castle with five themed lands featuring fairy-tale magic, classic Disney character encounters, and thrill rides like Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain.
2. Adventure World (formerly Walt Disney Studios) – Features attractions dedicated to Marvel, Pixar, and World of
Frozen.
ADDITIONAL ATTRACTIONS:
– Disney Village shopping district
– Seven Disney resort hotels on-site
Amusement Parks CA - Get Your Thrill On
WHY CANADIANS VISIT:
1. Cultural Experience – A distinctly European Disney experience different from California or Florida parks, offering
French cultural immersion with Disney magic and unique European attractions.
2. Travel Accessibility – Easy access via the RER A train directly to Marne-la-Vallee/Chessy station from Paris.
Multiple airlines provide flight connections from Canada through Paris (CDG). Once in Europe, Canadians can easily explore other countries.
3. Cost Considerations – Often more affordable than Disney World in Florida or Disneyland in California. Offers the
strongest value proposition for international visitors from outside North America with competitive hotel pricing.
4. Seasonal Attractions – Disney Enchanted Christmas winter wonderland runs from November to early January. Also features Flower and Fantasy gardens in spring and summer, and Halloween Fest in October and November. Very popular for holiday celebrations.
5. International Status – Unlike Disney parks in the US which focus heavily on American culture, Disneyland Paris
offers a more international appeal. Popular for visitors seeking variety and a different Disney experience.
6. Dining and Entertainment – Multiple dining options from quick-service to character dining. Fire shows and parades available if booked through the official app.
PRACTICAL TIPS FOR CANADIAN VISITORS:
– Download the official app for real-time wait times and reservations
– Eat lunch early (11:00 AM to 12:00 PM) to avoid peak crowds
– Take the RER A train from Paris (just minutes from main entrance)
– Consider visiting during shoulder seasons (spring or fall) to avoid summer crowds
BOTTOM LINE:
Canadians visit Disneyland Paris primarily for the unique combination of European magic, value proposition, and
distinct Disney experience that neither California nor Florida Disneyland can offer. It remains a top destination for
Canadian families seeking a memorable European vacation combined with Disney wonder.
