Details revealed for transformation of Disney Village
Disney Village, the shopping, dining, and entertainment district at Disneyland Paris, is about to embark on its biggest transformation yet.
After the first announcement in 2022, more specific details have been revealed about the enhancing and updating of Disney Village through 2024 and beyond.
“We are extremely pleased to be starting works on the north block of Disney Village soon, which will begin its extensive transformation over the next few months,” said Bruno Chastain, Disney Village Director. “In addition to a more harmonious stroll with touches of Disney magic thanks to brand new facades, a completely reinvented atmosphere and interiors, this project will also improve life behind the scenes and the comfort of our Cast Members and Disney Village Partner employees. We’re experiencing ambitious and exciting times, and I can’t wait to see the new Disney Village come to life for all our guests to enjoy.”
New Restaurant Opening in 2023
Rosalie, a new restaurant inspired by traditional Parisian brasseries, will welcome guests at the end of 2023.
The new restaurant will be located near Lake Disney. The entire adjoining block of buildings, spanning over 650 feet, will also be renovated with refreshed shopping experiences.
Current Shops Undergoing Transformation
The first phase of construction slated for early 2024 through fall 2024, will update several existing shops, including Disney Fashion, Disney Fashion Jr, and The Disney Gallery. New larger windows will help the stores visibility from the main promenade.
They will also be completely remodeled inside with new sections such as fashion and lifestyle, home decor, Disney art and collectibles, and major Disney franchises including Pixar, Star Wars, and Marvel. These renovations will also give Disney Village a new facade with natural tones. This will be achieved by mixing wood, brick, and metal to create a unified impression.
Outdoor Areas to Receive an Update
Lastly, enhancements to the surrounding landscape and lighting throughout the area will also be completed. Original graphics created exclusively for Disney Village will include contemporary visuals that pay tribute to Disney characters and “imaginary worlds.”
Construction will take approximately two years. It will be carried out in phases to minimize the disruption of the guest experience.
