Printable maps of Disneyland Paris
Between 2019 and 2024, Disneyland Paris stopped distributing paper maps at the entrance to the park, making it difficult for visitors not using their smartphone to navigate. Although paper maps have since become available again, they are sometimes not restocked at the park entrance. To avoid this inconvenience, I’m offering you versions that you can print out at home. This way, you can prepare for your visit with peace of mind in the knowledge that you have a physical map in hand, ensuring that you have a smooth and pleasant journey through the park.
The new brochure complete with park map is also available by clicking here. Please note that I cannot send these plans by e-mail. Please download and print them out in person.
I would also ask you to do your bit for the planet by only printing out these plans if you really need to. Otherwise, remember to save them in your photos or use the Disneyland Paris mobile application for easy access.
Interactive maps of Disneyland Paris
For those who prefer to find their way around the park digitally, Disneyland Paris offers several options.
- The first is the map available on the official mobile application. This is a 3D map that can geolocate you in the park and guide you from where you are to your destination. The app is easy to use and provides lots of extra details, such as which attractions are open and their waiting times, show times, restaurant menus, shops and even real-time tips to enhance your visit. The app is free and available for iOS and Android. In my opinion, this map is essential for your visit, so don’t forget to download the app beforehand.
- The second option is the interactive map on Google Maps, which presents a 3D view of the entire Disneyland Paris complex, including the Disneyland and Walt Disney Studios parks, Disney Village, hotels and other facilities such as the golf course. This map is available on the official Disneyland Paris website. In my opinion, this map is ideal for familiarising yourself with the park before your visit.

The programme of shows and parades at Disneyland Paris
In the past, show and parade times were indicated directly on the paper maps distributed at the park entrance. Now, this information is only available via the Disneyland Paris mobile application or posted outside the entrance to the show venues. If you need help finding these times or any other information, don’t hesitate to ask a Cast Member or go directly to the City Hall.
