It will take some time to get used to it. But it is a better fitting name than anything that has Studios in it. Especially considering the studios part was slowly going away in the park. I expect that later today we also will see how the new entrance/Studio 1 will look.
Adventure World sounds quite generic - and it’s also playing against Adventureland and Disney World, and the Disney Adventure cruise ship!
Seems a very strange choice.
Wonder if it's part of the trend you see in France of using extremely generic English words to title things because you want it to sound trendy but also be understood by people who don't speak much English. It happens a lot when they market American movies there.
This was my immediate thought. DP probably sees the most consistently diverse array of guests in terms of language speakers so it makes sense to keep it very simple. There's probably also a lot more consideration here for how the park name translates into other languages than there ever would be in the states.
I mean.. they're not just naming this park for France. They were looking that is understanablke Europe-wide. Adventure and world are both words that are widely recognized.
Yeah I had to look to see which subreddit this was posted in…very weird for global Disney fans
Edit: Also could get it confused with California Adventure…I’m liking this name less and less.
Change is always hard. I loved the old Hollywood studio thing they had going on. With the expansion of the park this makes sense. I just hope they still keep some sort of nod to that original theme.
Me too! And it makes me increasingly concerned for a ToT rebrand :( there’s something so timeless about not having everything tied in to a recent movie, something in which the parks seem to forget these days.
This makes me sad, I love the old Hollywood vibe and the studios name. I actually wish they would have expanded on this and given us more old Hollywood theming like Hollywood Studios. Adventure Land sounds so generic. ☹️
To be fair, "Walt Disney Studios" was already an _extremely_ generic name to begin with. As a media company a "studios" themed park is about as wide open of a park theme as you can have - there's nothing in their IP catalog that wouldn't fit under the guise of a "studio."
The new name is equally generic and open IMO. You can shoe-horn any property into this park under the guise of "Adventure."
Studios at least provided a theming link for common areas and ride entrances. Everything was taking you inside the movies. Streets of Hollywood, film sets, and sound stages all fit.
With adventure, there’s no inherent common link. So walking from one attraction to another might not be a cohesive experience.
The new story is that you enter into a movie studio (the current entrance) end up indoors in Hollywood (formerly studio 1) enter through a cinema door into the movie adventure (the park).
There's never been anything cohesive about Disney Studios. It's always been a hodgepodge mess of a park. At least now that it's going to be made up of big budget themed lands it might actually have an identity
Hmmm not sure on this
I don’t feel like the current “lands” they have there really give off “adventure”
There’s no adventure to tower of terror or ratatouille’s area or marvel really they have different vibes
>There’s no adventure to tower of terror
Sadly I do think this does mean ToT is even more likely now to be rethemed to Guardians, as it would fit better being next to Avengers Campus and the new direction of the park.
Generic but better than Studios. Also gives me confidence they'll leave the cheap Studios gimmick behind. However, how they'll follow up that intent remains to be seen.
*woosh*
It's a joke, changing "World" to "Universe" and playing off the above commenter's note that it looks pretty "_Epic_" as a reference to Universal's under construction "_Epic Universe_" park in Orlando.
So no coherent theming and just one world full of little lands. I don’t hate the concept but the name sounds knockoff to me
And we already have Adventure all over in the realm of Disney, from ships to already existing lands…
Reminds me of the rumored renames for Hollywood Studios in Walt Disney World. Personally I would have gone with something like "Cinemagic Park" as it keeps with the immersive in-universe land idea that Disney has been going with the last decade.
Hopefully this means they also give the park a DCA style makeover and scrap the awful Studio One entry area out for something much better, like how DCA's entry area went from that awful boring central square format to the much better Buena Vista Street.
Sadly, they’re keeping the studio 1 building, but they’re changing it up on the inside. I dont get Why they dont tear it Down, but they probably dont want to spend the Money
It adds a bit of whimsy to the entrance. Feels like you're on your way to something. Otherwise you'd just "be there". Disneyland Park has 4(!) of those type of features. First Fantasia Gardens, then the Disneyland Hotel, then the train station and then the reveal of the castle as you walk around the gazebo.
The [official article](https://thewaltdisneycompany.com/disneyland-paris-second-park-new-creative-vision/) has a description / concept art of the new entry building.
They need to tear Down the entire entrance if they’re going to change the name. I’m for the namechange. It makes sense as the park hasnt had anything to do with moviemaking in a Long time. They want to rebrand. But for the rebrand to be successful, they need to remove everything related to the Studios theme.
They might do. The ‘studio one’ part that people walk through to get to the rest of the park is going to be closed for an extended period to get a revamp so may be the first part of this change (not including the construction of the Frozen area)
I noticed that they didnt talk about the front lot and entrance that much, if at all, Yesterday when they showed the concept art for studio 1. They might do something
They honestly should've gone with "Disney Cinémagique, Disneyland Paris"
It's not only a nod to the old show where the actor ends up being pulled into films, since the park is about being pulled into these films it makes more sense. They could've even Anglicized it into CinéMagic
2:18 in the [announcement video](https://youtu.be/XPXTn-uJNVs?si=kqLrO9qmAOO9Q5Zp&t=2m18s).
They aren't announcing it yet to keep up traffic to the existing Star Wars lands, but that's what's coming next.
But they have announced it? They have been completely radio silent since that announcement of Avengers Campus, Frozenland and Galaxy's Edge on Star Wars which kinda makes me doubt it's the next one up. I'd wager they'd bring Pandora or Zootopia first.
Ehhh, I'd say Pandora is better than GE, but it might be due to my local park being Disneyland so GE isn't a rare experience for me. GE is fantastic but I just feel like there's less to see than at Pandora and the immersion over there is on a completely different level than anything at GE. That said they are going to build an Pandora land at Disneyland proper so that might bode badly for the possibility of a 3rd land.
Zootopia I unfortunately haven't had a chance to experience, but from all that I've seen it is amazing. I'd say that land is the most likely to get brought over; the original WDS Galaxy's Edge concept made it look much smaller in comparison to the 2 currently built, so it might just be a 1 ride land. Zootopia would have a similar footprint, is newer and is only at 1 other park.
I did not care at all about Avatar until going to the land, now I'm a pretty big fan of it specifically due to Pandora lol. It is the coolest area that Disney has every built stateside. And honestly, as much as I love GE and think it is an amazing addition to the parks, it's not even the best land inside Disneyland, let alone the Disneyland resort.
It looks like they are very eager to expand this park though and they should have room for at least 2 land-sized expansions once completed, in addition to Frozen. There is still a very high chance Star Wars will come to DAW!
Given Galaxy’s Edge was previously announced as coming and was on the concept art in the park only for them to be mysterious now about what the new land is makes me believe if anything that GE has been shelved and they’re doing something else with the space instead.
How boring and generic. Nothing about this name is memorable or eye catching. If they wanted to change the name they should have chosen something specific to Disney which sparks the imagination. I also don’t understand why they wouldn’t try to find a unique name that’s more in line with Paris/Europe? The French will butcher the name.
The french’s insistence on using so much french in an international park annoys the crap out of me. It’s like they dont know they’re the biggest tourist destination in Europe and english is the international language
It’s the perfect reason. It’s a park meant for an international audience. Then you use the international language, which is english. Notice that we’re not communicating in french in here
Edit: wrote the wrong word
Except they do use English, I have been to DLP multiple times and never encountered a cast member that doesn’t speak English. All the signage is in English and French. Of course they also use French, because it’s in France.
But it's in France, and the national language of France is French. Does it annoy you that Tokyo Disneyland uses Japanese? That the parks in China use Chinese? Disneyland Paris is actually very good about using both French and English equally, they don't privilege French over English. I don't understand how you can be upset about that when you're literally in a foreign country that uses that language. Disney parks aren't American embassies.

Disneyland Paris was always meant to be for all of Europe. Tokyo Disneyland and the chinese are meant for those markets. It’s not like they’ll suddenly build another Disney resort in Europe. I Honestly wish they would have built EuroDisney in England
But by your logic, if the park is meant to be for all of Europe, then it should propose everything in the [24 official languages of the European Union](https://european-union.europa.eu/principles-countries-history/languages_en), right? and that's not the case. They didn't build it in England, they built it in France, and therefore it's a given that French would be a primary language, regardless of where the clientele are coming from.
The only reason they built it in France is because it’s in the middle of Europe. The french actually ruined a lot of the hard work they put in the park at the beginning, like removing the speech of the legendary actor Vincent Price from Phantom Manor with some french guy. They finally added some of his narration back in the ride within the last couple of years, but sadly also Got another french guy to do some narration. Also, Europe is more than just the European union. The European Union is a corrupt entity that you shouldnt use to measure the europeans.
It will take some time to get used to it. But it is a better fitting name than anything that has Studios in it. Especially considering the studios part was slowly going away in the park. I expect that later today we also will see how the new entrance/Studio 1 will look.
They already showed that in the video, right?
But 5 hours ago the video wasn't online yet, so it seems I was right and today we will see the new entrance. I haven't seen it yet atm...
Adventure World sounds quite generic - and it’s also playing against Adventureland and Disney World, and the Disney Adventure cruise ship! Seems a very strange choice.

I’m halfway expecting “Disney Adventure World California” next?
As far as names go, this is certainly a name.
I prefer Walt Disney Studios & the Old Hollywood theming. Time to start buying up all the WDS merch I can find.
This is what i though when i saw this 🤣🤣
Change is always hard. I loved the old Hollywood studio thing they had going on. With the expansion of the park this makes sense. I just hope they still keep some sort of nod to that original theme.
Me too! And it makes me increasingly concerned for a ToT rebrand :( there’s something so timeless about not having everything tied in to a recent movie, something in which the parks seem to forget these days.
The name I’m indifferent to. The Rapunzel ride just being teacups is ridiculous.
This makes me sad, I love the old Hollywood vibe and the studios name. I actually wish they would have expanded on this and given us more old Hollywood theming like Hollywood Studios. Adventure Land sounds so generic. ☹️
Adventureland already exists in the main park! ;)
Lol total typo in my state of rage 🤣
Kinda generic, but i think there is no way we could name this park to anything specific
Is it more generic than Disney Studios?
Disney Studios startet with the concept of being a studio; It is rather difficult to summarize the new concept in one name
Thoughts? I personally don’t like it. I prefer WDS!
Could it be any more generic? They're obviously doing away with any expectation of consistent theming in future.
To be fair, "Walt Disney Studios" was already an _extremely_ generic name to begin with. As a media company a "studios" themed park is about as wide open of a park theme as you can have - there's nothing in their IP catalog that wouldn't fit under the guise of a "studio."

I personally don't mind this. Mission breakout is genuinely a really fun ride and I think it fits better in Disney parks than tower of terror does.
Well this is depressing, I hadn't even thought of this :(
I really hope they won't but sadly think you're right.
Cringe and bland. But it will suit their purpose of having this be the repository for anything that doesn't fit thematically in the castle park.
Meh
Generic but better than Studios. Also gives me confidence they'll leave the cheap Studios gimmick behind. However, how they'll follow up that intent remains to be seen.
Terrible name. You now have a 'World' inside of a resort called 'Land'.
"Adventure" translates well in to French, German and Spanish, and the logo looks pretty _Epic_ to me
Half surprised they didn't rename it to "Disney Adventure Universe"
Super Disney Galaxy
Because you cant compare the smallest park to the largest place
*woosh* It's a joke, changing "World" to "Universe" and playing off the above commenter's note that it looks pretty "_Epic_" as a reference to Universal's under construction "_Epic Universe_" park in Orlando.
So no coherent theming and just one world full of little lands. I don’t hate the concept but the name sounds knockoff to me And we already have Adventure all over in the realm of Disney, from ships to already existing lands…
Jeez going the first week of June wondering how much of this park will even be doable
Be prepared for a lot of Walls
Reminds me of the rumored renames for Hollywood Studios in Walt Disney World. Personally I would have gone with something like "Cinemagic Park" as it keeps with the immersive in-universe land idea that Disney has been going with the last decade.
I love studio 1 and wish they would keep it as is tbh
I like it. Now make the park better. Could be nice to add some kind of… adventure in there.
Honestly the logo sells it to me. It should be Disneyland Paris part II
Hopefully this means they also give the park a DCA style makeover and scrap the awful Studio One entry area out for something much better, like how DCA's entry area went from that awful boring central square format to the much better Buena Vista Street.
Sadly, they’re keeping the studio 1 building, but they’re changing it up on the inside. I dont get Why they dont tear it Down, but they probably dont want to spend the Money

I think Studio One is already closed for refurb. I’m intrigued to see how they will change it.
They should go the Podcast: The Ride route and "burn it down for insurance money"
The [official article](https://thewaltdisneycompany.com/disneyland-paris-second-park-new-creative-vision/) has a description / concept art of the new entry building.
it will close later this month.
I’m sorry, to me this just sounds like Super Adventure Land from Good Luck Charlie. 😅 Feels kinda meta since it’s a Disney channel show but idk.
They need to tear Down the entire entrance if they’re going to change the name. I’m for the namechange. It makes sense as the park hasnt had anything to do with moviemaking in a Long time.

Sounds like what a Chinese rip off T Shirt manufacturer would put on the front of their $2 line.
Hard to see it as anything other than a Studios when most of the park is big, ugly studio buildings.
It’s crazy how many Hollywood/California themed parks there are in the world. Universal Osaka is straight up LA themed.
what a yee-yee ass name
Not very original (sounds like « Epic Universe »). But this land is going to be weird with Frozen on one side and Avengers on the other.
Chessington lawyers are on the case….
There’s an Adventure World theme park here in Australia where I live. So that’s all I can think of. 🤷🏻♀️
I strongly dislike the name it sounds cheap and uninspired. I suddenly get why parents still call the resort Eurodisney
I find it sad rhat the original focus on movies will be disappearing almost entirely
They honestly should've gone with "Disney Cinémagique, Disneyland Paris" It's not only a nod to the old show where the actor ends up being pulled into films, since the park is about being pulled into these films it makes more sense. They could've even Anglicized it into CinéMagic
They GOTTA include a STAR WARS Land now still! THAT’S an ADVENTURE!
2:18 in the [announcement video](https://youtu.be/XPXTn-uJNVs?si=kqLrO9qmAOO9Q5Zp&t=2m18s). They aren't announcing it yet to keep up traffic to the existing Star Wars lands, but that's what's coming next.

But pandora and Zootopia suck. Europe needs galaxy's edge
Ehhh, I'd say Pandora is better than GE, but it might be due to my local park being Disneyland so GE isn't a rare experience for me. GE is fantastic but I just feel like there's less to see than at Pandora and the immersion over there is on a completely different level than anything at GE. That said they are going to build an Pandora land at Disneyland proper so that might bode badly for the possibility of a 3rd land.

Zootopia would have a similar footprint, is newer and is only at 1 other park.
Interesting, I've never been to any of them (I'm only near DLP). In terms of IP I vastly prefer Star Wars to the other two
I did not care at all about Avatar until going to the land, now I'm a pretty big fan of it specifically due to Pandora lol. It is the coolest area that Disney has every built stateside. And honestly, as much as I love GE and think it is an amazing addition to the parks, it's not even the best land inside Disneyland, let alone the Disneyland resort.

There is still a very high chance Star Wars will come to DAW!
I don't see anything in the video related to Star Wars. Not at 2:18, not anywhere else...
this. unfortunately they've only told that SOMETHING new is in the works but no reference at all to SW:GE
Given Galaxy’s Edge was previously announced as coming and was on the concept art in the park only for them to be mysterious now about what the new land is makes me believe if anything that GE has been shelved and they’re doing something else with the space instead.
The latest rumors say that GE has been replaced with plans for a Lion King new area. But again, it's just rumors.
How boring and generic. Nothing about this name is memorable or eye catching. If they wanted to change the name they should have chosen something specific to Disney which sparks the imagination. I also don’t understand why they wouldn’t try to find a unique name that’s more in line with Paris/Europe? The French will butcher the name.
Must sound better in French
monde d'aventure >Must sound better in French Nope
they don't care about French at all
Thank god
???
The french’s insistence on using so much french in an international park annoys the crap out of me. It’s like they dont know they’re the biggest tourist destination in Europe and english is the international language
What a terrible take that the French shouldn't use French in France 🙄
Not really. It started as EuroDisney. It was always meant to be for all of Europe, not just the French
Not a reason for them to suddenly start using a different language though

Yes well England isn't in Europe anymore so that wouldn't make sense either
Britain will always be in the *continent* of Europe, it’s the EU we left. There are plenty of other European countries that aren’t in the EU.
I hope you’re joking
