Raiponce Tangled Spin

Romantic teacup carousel in a Rapunzel setting

Rapunzel Tangled Spin immerses you in the enchanting lantern festival from the film Rapunzel – Tangled, creating a magical experience that sparks wonder and delight. The family-friendly attraction is located on Adventure Way and invites you to take a dreamy ride where light, movement and music interact wonderfully. As you enter the attraction, be sure to look out for the lovely details from Rapunzel's world – you're sure to find a few funny references here.

The carousel itself is a classic teacup ride, but sometimes the tried-and-tested is the right choice. However, you should have a head for heights and a strong stomach – otherwise you might see not only lanterns, but also stars. You take your seat in small gondolas that look gentle but can spin quite fast. They seem to dance around each other. When you look up, you see a sea of floating lanterns, creating a breathtakingly beautiful view, especially in the dark.

Raiponce Tangled Spin is a true classic in the world of amusement parks, and its design makes it something very special. So don't just pass this carousel by – it's a real highlight on Adventure Way, especially for fans of the film.

Template for the carousel: Lantern scene from Tangled

One of the most beautiful moments in the film Tangled is the lantern festival, held every year in honour of the missing princess. Thousands of floating lights rise into the sky and are reflected in the water – a magical image that has accompanied Rapunzel since childhood and whose significance she only realises in the course of her journey.

This scene is one of the film's emotional highlights. It is considered one of the most iconic sequences in recent Disney animation. The combination of warm lighting, romantic music, and character development has made it popular worldwide – it's no surprise that the song "I See the Light" was nominated for an Oscar and won a Grammy.

Raiponce Tangled Spin lovingly captures this image: the floating lanterns above the attraction, the rotating gondolas and the background music allow you to experience a piece of this magical moment for yourself.

Fun fact: One of the most elaborate film scenes served as inspiration for the attraction.

The lantern scene from Tangled is one of those moments that is instantly recognisable around the world. Behind the warm glow of the lanterns lies an enormous technical achievement: Disney animators faced the challenge of creating tens of thousands of individually animated light sources, each with its own movement, glow, and reflections on the water. To make this interplay possible, Disney animators even developed new tools specifically for this scene.

The result was a completely new visual style that evokes deep emotion, making the lantern scene one of the most memorable moments in the film.
This impressive film sequence inspired Raiponce Tangled Spin at Disneyland Paris, inviting you to experience the magic of the lantern festival firsthand.

We are curious to see which moment will leave a stronger impression on you in the end – the scene from the film or the version in the park.
