Transformative Multi-Year Expansion Announced for WDS Paris

[The Grand Inquisitor]

What's going to happen to Toon Studios now that a majority of its rides are now in the World of Pixar land? Could we see it removed or replaced?

The remainder of Toon Studio is rumoured to become part of a new 'theatre district' that spans Studios 1, 2 and 3, basically the front of the park.

That's interesting. Would Magic Carpets be replaced?

id hope so. If they replaced the spinner with a new theater, that would work pretty well I think. Or just retheme the spinners to something pixar. Perhaps something aquatic and nemo/dory themed to tie into crushes coaster?

Also any updates to the downtown expansion plans?

I've heard nothing about Magic Carpets. I would imagine there are two options.

1) Remove it as part of wider placemaking (probably once Frozen/lake is open)
2) Retheme it sooner to Pixar

WDSP is flat ride/spinner heavy and this is the least popular of all of them so it wouldn't be a loss for the park. As long as it doesn't get plonked into Adventureland.

I say retheme it to the stingray migration.

Even when Frozen opens, I think any attraction is a loss in WDSP

Considering how Disney already recycled WDW's Peter Pan figurines from the ‘Happiest Celebration on Earth’ for WDS’s sorcerer’s hat, I am wondering whether some of the 50 golden characters from the 50th anniversary will pop up at the Studios as well. Maybe they will become part of that new "Jardin des Tuileries“-style boulevard? Anyone has an idea when this boulevard is supposed to open or has even more details? WDW’s 50th anniversary is supposed to last until March 2023.

It won't open before then so it is possible.

so much happening in DPS, but when all is said and done there will only be a net increase of 1 ride.... But the park will still be much much better.

Yes again its nice to see them investing in a Park..... Just to BAD its not the crown jewels.... DL & WDW.

Yes because DL and WDW haven’t received a new E-ticket since 1995.

DSP is in need of an overhaul, and I think Disney is really gonna try to make Paris a destination for Disney Fan in USA. I feel like they will build a 3rd park before FL builds a 5th.

 

[jpinkc]

I guess I could see that if they wont improve what we have, or at least get ride parity between DL and MK. But I certainly wouldnt stay on property with all the cost of international travel.

Anyone know why the left turret's golden spire is missing?

 

[coruscant]

That is very strange because that spire has been missing since 2019. Thought they had enough time to bring it back. Hopefully it will be back by the time the castle is done (normally it should be in December)

The tallest turret spire was recently removed so it may have been removed with that or be reinstalled when the main turret gets its spire back.
