In a milestone celebration, Walt Disney Imagineering Paris teams gathered to commemorate the official opening of “World Premiere,” the newly redesigned entrance to what will become Disney Adventure World. The May 15 ceremony took place beneath the large scale Disney Theater neon sign, marking the completion of a significant year-long construction project.

The renovated entrance, formerly known as Disney Studio 1, represents a key component in the ongoing transformation of Disneyland Paris’s second park, scheduled for first phase completion in 2026. The reimagined space transports visitors into an atmospheric Hollywood premiere setting, complete with a permanent starry sky overhead.

Park goers can now explore several new or refreshed venues, including The Hollywood Gardens Restaurant and Mickey’s of Hollywood Boutique. Design elements throughout the space feature numerous references to Disney properties and Los Angeles landmarks. The entrance serves as a gateway to World Premiere Plaza’s various theaters and provides access to themed areas including the existing Marvel Avengers Campus and the upcoming World of Frozen, slated to open in 2026.

Disneyland Paris also revealed the menu for Hollywood Gardens Restaurant, which much like it’s predecessor, continues to prominently feature burgers. Early reviews from social media taste testers have shown varied reactions, ranging from favorable to moderate satisfaction regarding the flavor profiles of the available food offerings.

While construction lasted approximately twelve months, planning for World Premiere began three years ago. The complex project required extensive preparation, including narrative development, structural analysis of the existing building, and exploration of various design concepts before implementation could begin.

According to park representatives, work will continue on World Premiere Plaza in the coming months to ensure the area is fully prepared for the 2026 extension opening that will complete the park’s transition to Disney Adventure World. Subscribe to AirMagique for more news and updates.
