This month, an original Hollywood Tower Hotel prop returned to the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror attraction at Disneyland Paris Resort. The refresh comes as the European Disney Resort transforms its second theme park, Walt Disney Studios Park, into Disney Adventure World. The reimagined Disney park is scheduled to reopen and debut several new attractions on March 29.

On March 15, X (formerly known as Twitter) user @PixiedustDLP shared a photo of a freshly cleaned and refurbished Hollywood Tower Hotel tapestry above the fireplace in the lobby of the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror attraction at Walt Disney Studios Park. The decoration had been missing for some time and showed some wear before it disappeared.

This is just one of many cosmetic refreshes that Disneyland Paris Resort has made throughout Walt Disney Studios Park as it prepares to reopen as Disney Adventure World on Sunday, March 29.

On March 29, 2026, Disneyland Paris Resort will debut Disney Adventure World, the reimagined version of Walt Disney Studios Park. Alongside its new name, the second European Disney park will also debut several new attractions and theme park areas, including Raiponce Tangled Spin, inspired by Tangled (2010), and the World of Frozen. The park will also offer an all-new nighttime show, Disney Cascade of Lights, featuring awe-inspiring drone technology, water projections, and more.

More Disney Adventure World fun is on the way. Disneyland Paris Resort is still building a park area and a log flume ride inspired by The Lion King (1994) and a family-friendly flying carousel ride inspired by Up (2009). Disney hasn’t shared exact opening dates for either of these attractions.

Several existing Walt Disney Studios Park attractions and park areas will remain in Disney Adventure World, including the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, Avengers Campus, and Worlds of Pixar.
