What each one is.

Disneyland Paris

Disneyland Paris is Europe's largest Disney resort, set in Chessy on the Marne-la-Vallée RER line about 40 minutes east of central Paris. The resort includes two parks - Disneyland Park (Sleeping Beauty Castle, Big Thunder Mountain, Phantom Manor, Hyperspace Mountain) and Walt Disney Studios Park (Tower of Terror, Ratatouille, Avengers Campus) - plus seven Disney hotels and Disney Village.

Disneyland Paris is busy all year round, with peak periods during French, UK and Spanish school holidays, plus Christmas, Halloween and the 33rd-anniversary celebrations. Quiet periods do exist: mid-January to mid-March and early November. Check live wait times across both parks to plan your route, and use our crowd calendar to pick a lower-crowd date for your visit.
