Disneyland Paris Resort has announced the closure of Les Voyages de Pinocchio, the European Disney park‘s version of the Pinocchio’s Daring Journey dark ride that opened at Disneyland Resort (California) and Tokyo Disney Resort in 1983. Here’s what to know before your next visit to Disneyland Park (Paris).
Les Voyages de Pinocchio Closure
The final day to ride Les Voyages de Pinocchio at Disneyland Park (Paris) was Sunday, November 1. As of Monday, November 2, the Fantasyland dark ride is closed for refurbishment. Disneyland Paris Resort’s website indicates that the attraction will remain closed through Friday, November 13, 2026.
Disneyland Paris Resort guests who visit Fantasyland during the Pinocchio (1940) ride closure will find bright blue and purple wooden walls surrounding the attraction facade. On Monday, X (formerly known as Twitter) user @DLPReport shared several photos taken outside Les Voyages de Pinocchio, showing both the blocked-off attraction building and a shuttered kiosk nearby:
🔧 Les Voyages de Pinocchio is now closed for refurbishment until Nov 13:
Disneyland Paris Resort hasn’t shared much about its plans for Les Voyages de Pinocchio, other than confirming that it is undergoing refurbishment. Given that the Fantasyland attraction is going to be closed for less than two weeks, it’s unlikely that Disney cast members will make any major guest-facing changes. The European Disney park is more likely to be performing general maintenance and touch-ups on the dark ride, which opened alongside Disneyland Park (Paris) on April 12, 1992.
The Pinocchio’s Daring Journey attractions at Disneyland Park (Anaheim) and Tokyo Disneyland remain open and operational amid the Les Voyages de Pinocchio refurbishment at Disneyland Paris Resort. Neither the American nor the Japanese Disney destination has announced an upcoming maintenance closure for its version of the Pinocchio dark ride.
