Disneyland Paris Reopening

After being closed for several months, Disneyland Paris will begin welcoming guests back to their theme parks, Disney Village, and the Newport Bay Club hotel on July 15th. Below is a list of their updated health and safety guidelines that guests, and Cast Members will be required to follow during their visit.

Guidelines, Restrictions, and Safety Measures

The enchanting resort will be welcoming guests home in the coming weeks and we can’t wait! While it’s exciting to know that beloved attractions and delicious Disney foods are things we’ll be experiencing later this year, the reopening plan comes with new health and safety guidelines designed to protect all guests and Cast Members. From face coverings and social distancing, to elevated cleaning standards, there are several new measures guests can expect to encounter on their next visit to Disneyland Paris.

 

Disneyland Paris has updated their safety measures per French government guidelines including enhanced sanitation procedures, distance spacing, and screening. Disney is asking that all guests and cast members comply with following to be allowed to visit the Resorts and Parks:
