Disneyland Paris has revealed more information regarding the extensive transformation plan for Disney Village, its shopping, entertainment and dining district.
Sports Bar & Lounge
The Sports Bar & Lounge is scheduled to reopen on November 22 following a comprehensive refurbishment. The venue will debut an expanded dining area, redesigned terrace with a glass roof, and contemporary interior décor featuring sports-themed artwork and memorabilia.
The venue will feature a large fresco depicting Goofy based on the short film How to Play Football, as well as artwork inspired by the animated series Big Hero 6: The Series on the restaurant’s façade.
Coca-Cola will sponsor the revamped establishment, which will offer an updated menu spanning breakfast through evening service, alongside craft beverages and themed cocktails.
Pelé Soccer
Disney Village will soon add Pelé Soccer, a football merchandise store honoring the late Brazilian football legend. This marks the brand’s first European location, following existing outlets at Disney properties in Florida and California. The shop will stock exclusive football jerseys, accessories, and vintage-inspired products.
France’s Biggest McDonald’s
Several major partnerships are driving the Disney Villages evolution. McDonald’s plans to open France’s largest location in early 2026, replacing the current restaurant that has operated since 1999. The new establishment will feature distinctive architecture and multiple outdoor terraces.
Casa Giulia Opening 2026
Casa Giulia, an Italian restaurant operated by Bertrand Hospitality, is currently under construction with an anticipated opening at the end of 2026. The two-story venue will serve traditional Italian cuisine alongside Giulia Express, a quick-service component offering pizza by the slice, focaccia, and pastries.
Disneyland Paris has also extended its partnership with Pathé Group to continue operating the Disney Village cinema.
Annette’s Diner & Disney Store Closing
Two existing establishments will temporarily close January 5th, 2026 for renovations. Annette’s Diner will undergo a multi-month refurbishment focusing on kitchen expansion and dining room updates, including replacing the floors and furniture, while maintaining its 1950s theme. The Disney Store will transform into Disney Wonders, featuring themed areas and a redesigned shopping experience.
