For years, UK Disney fans have flown to Paris with a familiar routine: Disneyland Park first, Walt Disney Studios Park second. But those days are officially over. Welcome to Disney Adventure World — a reimagined, rebranded park that’s finally stepping out of the shadow of its fairytale neighbour.
And if you really want to understand how ambitious this transformation is, the best place to start isn’t the rides themselves — it’s the park map.

Disney Adventure World’s map immediately feels different. Where the old Studios Park map felt fragmented and utilitarian, this one is bold, cohesive and cinematic. For UK visitors used to sprawling parks like Walt Disney World, this is the first sign that Disneyland Paris is thinking bigger — and smarter.
At the centre of everything is Adventure Way, a wide, landscaped promenade that replaces the old studio backlot aesthetic. On the map, it acts like a spine, guiding guests from the entrance toward the park’s newest and most impressive lands. Think less “working film studio” and more “European answer to EPCOT’s World Showcase energy”.
For British travellers arriving on a short break, this clearer layout matters. Fewer dead ends, fewer confusing transitions — and more time actually enjoying attractions rather than navigating them.
World Premiere: A Stronger First Impression
UK guests often land early, drop bags, and head straight to the parks — and Disney Adventure World finally rewards that strategy.
The park map shows World Premiere as the new entry land, replacing the old Studio 1. Instead of soundstages and scaffolding, you’re welcomed by a glamorous Hollywood-style boulevard. From a map perspective, it sets expectations immediately: this is a full-day park, not a half-day add-on.
For first-time UK visitors, this makes planning easier. The map clearly funnels guests toward Adventure Way, reducing that “what do we do first?” feeling that plagued the old park.
Avengers Campus: Still a Headliner
For many UK families, Avengers Campus remains the primary draw — and the park map confirms its importance.
Positioned clearly off Adventure Way, this land feels purposeful rather than bolted-on. The map highlights its tight, immersive layout, which works well for shorter UK trips where maximising ride count matters.
WEB SLINGERS and Avengers Assemble: Flight Force are easy to locate, and the compact design means less walking — a subtle but important win for visitors juggling jet lag, kids, or a three-day itinerary.
World of Frozen: The Map’s Biggest Statement
The real headline moment on the Disney Adventure World map is World of Frozen.
For UK visitors — especially families who may not be heading to Walt Disney World anytime soon — this is a huge deal. The map shows a fully enclosed land, wrapped around a central lagoon, with Arendelle Castle acting as a visual anchor.
From a planning perspective, the map suggests a land designed for lingering, not rushing. Pathways loop naturally, sightlines are controlled, and the Frozen Ever After attraction sits deep within the land — a sign Disney expects guests to commit serious time here.
For Brits used to battling crowds at peak school holiday times, this layout hints at better crowd flow and more breathing room than the old Studios Park ever offered.
The Lion King Land: A Game-Changer for UK Fans
One of the most intriguing elements on the map for UK audiences is the upcoming Lion King-themed land.
Lion King holds a special place for British Disney fans — thanks in no small part to its West End legacy — and the park map leans heavily into that emotional connection. The land is shown with dramatic elevation changes, water features, and a headline attraction that promises scale we simply don’t have in UK theme parks.
For visitors weighing whether to add an extra night at a Disney hotel, this section of the map may well be the deciding factor.
Smarter Layout, Better Short Breaks
One thing UK visitors consistently care about is efficiency. Long weekends. Midweek Eurostar trips. School holiday squeezes.
Disney Adventure World’s map suggests a park designed with that reality in mind. Lands are clustered logically, walking distances are reduced, and visual icons help guests orient themselves quickly.
Compared to UK parks like Alton Towers — where the map can feel like a hiking challenge — this is refreshingly compact without feeling cramped.
A Park Worth Planning Around
The biggest takeaway from the Disney Adventure World park map is this:
This is no longer a “second park” you pop into for a few hours.
For UK visitors, that changes everything. Trip planning shifts. Hotel nights increase. Park Hopper strategies evolve. Suddenly, Disneyland Paris feels less like a short-break destination and more like a genuinely rounded resort experience.
And it all starts with a map that finally knows what story it wants to tell.
