Transformative Multi-Year Expansion Announced for WDS Paris

Don’t know if I saw anyone here mention this, but the mural backdrop design seems to feature all the IPs in the park. Could this potentially point to Inside Out and Wall-E coming? Although on the flip side that would also indicate that Genie is here to stay…

Possibly, though it could just be a generic "Pixar" reference to Worlds of Pixar and perhaps the current show. As you allude to, I suspect some of the IP featured will become less relevant over time. Who knows, though, maybe Stitch Live will be with us for decades to come!

And if we really want to deep dive into this, could that one empty corner possibly be a placeholder for the next land? Every other part of the poster is filled with a direct reference to the park (sorcerer hat, ToT, ear-fel tower)

All looking rather nice! Certainly gives a sense of how the scope of the park will be dramatically increased once this all opened... even if that still looks like a long walk for one attraction in World of Frozen!

Again, the odd collection of facades at the beginning is something that they hopefully get around to fixing one day as it still looks awkward and it's particularly weird to see them bold down a bench in front of a fake door on the Animation building side. I guess they have bigger fish to fry for the moment, though.

I find them fine. But of course doesn’t mean you’re wrong ! There again I wasn’t offended by the interior of Studio 1 either. Or the Village (aside from some TLC)

Black panther doesn't have a ride or show either. I think they just represent Marvel and Pixar. Or maybe they'll be present at the new night show. Alice in wonderland isn't there though.

I quite liked Studio 1.

My problem with the Village is the horrible security fence which makes it look like the border patrol at Dover, Calais or any other port.

Even some planters on either side and a proper exit way back to the station would help.

Gotta have something to keep the riff raff not staying on properly in their place

Have you seen the new bit?

On our first night, after the fireworks we just followed the crowd ….. through the exit.

At least the security lines were short! (And we weren’t the only ones to make that mistake).

No. That was October 2023.

And now I’ve said that I can’t find the photo I thought I took of the new design.

Surprised they didn't leave walls up around the ToT FastPass structure, since that's supposed to be made into a shop

I can always wait for you to post Martin’s Ultimate Tribute to Disney Villlage .

A scenic transportation ride to get you from ToT to Frozen, with stops along the way, would have been nice.

There is certainly something to be read into this. I've only seen the Pixar show once and I don't think either are featured? My next bet would be them both appearing in the nighttime show. Wall-E seem a given with 360 degree drones? Inside Out I am less sure.

The structure hasn't had walls directly around it so I guess they'll just put them up when the start construction. Could be different contractors working on it so contractor A wouldn't get involved in the work of contractor B etc.

Anyone have a before photo? Trying to remember what it looked like when we last visited…



Ignore, I found out I took a photo myself
