It's been a jam-packed week for Disney news, and if you've been glued to just one park, you might have missed a few exciting updates!
We've got your back! We closely follow Disney news worldwide to keep you informed about everything that may affect your next Disney adventure. Among a whirlwind of announcements, here are some of the biggest bits you shouldn't miss this week.
**EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays**
On November 28th, EPCOT launched its final festival of the year: the International Festival of the Holidays. This short but sweet festival runs just over a month, offering numerous holiday experiences, holiday kitchens, storytellers, and entertainment like Joyful! and the Candlelight Processional.
For those keen on character meet-and-greets, Santa is at CommuniCore Hall, Santa Goofy is in The Odyssey, and you can catch Figment in his festive sweater at the Imagination Pavilion! Despite the holiday crowds, the festival booths might be less busy than at other events, unless you're there during peak lunch and dinner times.
**World of Frozen Opening Date**
Disneyland Paris' Walt Disney Studios Park (soon Disney Adventure World) will welcome the World of Frozen on March 29th, 2026. This new land, mirroring the awe-inspiring one at Hong Kong Disneyland, promises breathtaking attractions and design.
**New Animatronics!**
In a mind-blowing update, Disney announced a brand-new Olaf animatronic for Disneyland Paris’ World of Frozen, voiced by none other than Josh Gad! Plus, Disney revealed they're working on animatronics that can express emotions like blushing and crying, perfect for challenging characters like Mike Wazowski and Lightning McQueen. With new lands inspired by Monsters, Inc., Cars, and villains on the horizon, we're keeping our fingers crossed to see these characters roam the parks.
We’ll keep an eye out for more Disney updates, so stay tuned. Which news has you most excited? Share your thoughts below!
