Disney Village, shopping, dining and entertainment complex in Disneyland Paris
Disney Village is a shopping and entertainment center in Chessy adjacent to Disneyland Paris, featuring stores, restaurants, and attractions spread across a large area. The site includes a lakeside promenade with illuminated pathways, multiple dining venues ranging from casual to upscale, and retail spaces showcasing Disney merchandise alongside fashion and lifestyle brands.
The site opened in the early 1990s under its original name Festival Disney, designed by renowned architect Frank Gehry. Over the decades it has expanded and adapted, with shops, restaurants, and entertainment options continuously updated to remain relevant to visitor needs.
The name reflects a casual entertainment district concept rooted in American leisure culture. Visitors naturally gather along the lakeside and main thoroughfare, where outdoor seating and street-level shops encourage people to linger and observe one another.
The location sits directly adjacent to Disneyland Paris and is easily accessible on foot from the park or by car, with ample parking available. Most areas remain open daily, though afternoons and evenings attract larger crowds when families take breaks from the main park.
The PanoraMagique balloon gently lifts up to 30 visitors at a time for an elevated view of the entire venue and surrounding landscape. This peaceful aerial perspective offers a completely different way to see the layout and scope of the area.
