In recent years, a trip to a Disney park has become a far pricier endeavor. Ticket prices at both Disneyland in California and Walt Disney World in Florida have climbed steadily, with peak-day passes now costing significantly more than they did a decade ago. Many guests have begun to question whether the magic still justifies the markup.
International parks haven’t been immune to the trend. Disneyland Paris has adopted dynamic pricing, and the cost of entry has quietly risen since the resort first opened its gates. For many, especially families, planning a Disney vacation now involves far more budgeting – and fewer spontaneous visits.
Now, Disneyland Paris is doing something unexpected: cutting prices.
Discounts Hit Amid Ongoing Construction at Disneyland Paris
There’s a lot going on at Disneyland Paris right now.
Walt Disney Studios Park is undergoing a massive rebrand. Soon to be known as Disney Adventure World, the park is in the middle of a multi-year transformation. A new entrance area, World Premiere Plaza, opened in May, while construction continues on an upcoming land themed to Frozen, with work also set to begin on a Lion King in the near future.
The resort’s central promenade, Adventure Way, is also taking shape. Set to include Tangled and Up-inspired rides, a new lakeside restaurant, and a nighttime drone show, it remains fenced off for now. Nearby, work also continues on Disney Village and the refurbishment of Davy Crockett Ranch, with a revamp also scheduled for Sequoia Lodge.
In the meantime, guests are being enticed with lower prices.
The Family & Friends Ticket Offer provides one-day dated tickets at a reduced rate for groups of four or more. The lowest prices are typically found midweek in the early fall, before the peak Halloween season, with tickets costing as low as $52 per adult via the resort’s international website.
Passholders haven’t been left out either. Those with the Disneyland Pass can also purchase discounted tickets for their guests through the official site, offering a more affordable way to bring friends along during the ongoing construction.
A Resort in Transition
Even with parts of the resort behind construction walls, much of Disneyland Paris remains open and operating. Disneyland Park continues to deliver on its promise of fairytale charm, with familiar rides like Peter Pan’s Flight and Big Thunder Mountain, alongside uniquely Parisian offerings such as Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain and Phantom Manor.
Walt Disney Studios Park, though partially obstructed right now, still boasts fan favorites like Crush’s Coaster and Tower of Terror.
And with the Disney Music Festival running through early September, visitors can enjoy added entertainment including live shows, musical performances, and character appearances.
The discounts may not last, but for now, they offer a rare opportunity: experiencing a Disney park at a lower cost – just as its next chapter begins to take shape.
