The Disney park news just keeps coming!
Disney dropped SO MANY announcements at the Horizons — D23 Disney Experience Showcase on August 10th; it was almost hard to keep up! But we got all the news live from the Honda Center including the new Villains Land and Cars Land coming to Magic Kingdom, the new name for the Tropical Americas re-theming of DinoLand, U.S.A., the new nighttime parade coming to Magic Kingdom, the Avatar Land headed to Disney California Adventure, and so much more. But it was the announcements for Disneyland Paris that got our nostalgic hearts racing!
Disney had not one, but two huge announcements for Disneyland Paris’ Disney Adventure World. First, we learned that an all-new Lion King Land is on the horizon in Disney Adventure World! “As our friend Rafiki would say, ‘It is time’,” exclaimed Josh D’Amaro, Disney Experiences Chairman.

Guests can follow Simba’s journey from cub to king when the first-ever attraction inspired by Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “The Lion King” debuts at Disney Adventure World in Paris.
The new Lion King Land will have you exploring the Pride Lands with new areas of dining, shopping, and attractions. There will be characters, and the land will be set at Pride Rock (which looks to be a new log-plume style ride).
The second announcement for Disney Adventure World is that a second new land will be joining the Lion King. World of Frozen will be coming to the park in 2026!

World of Frozen, a land themed to Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “Frozen” will open alongside the debut of the park’s new name, Disney Adventure World, in 2026.
Disney recently opened World of Frozen in Hong Kong Disney, and this new Disneyland Paris land looks like it may be a similar concept. We’re excited to have another park representing an entire dedicated land to Frozen!
Both of these new lands will be added to Disney Adventure World (currently Walt Disney Studios Park). In a model of the theme park showcased on Day 3 of the expo, you can see where these new lands will be.
Those of us who were kids when The Lion King first premiered will be so excited to visit the amazing new land dedicated to the brilliant, classic movie! There’s still more Disney news coming as we’re in Day 3 of the event, so keep following DFB for more updates!
