Disneyland Paris for visitors in wheelchairs

Do you use a wheelchair, or does one of your family members use one? When it comes to Disneyland Paris, that’s not a major problem. Few other theme parks are as well equipped to meet the needs of wheelchair users and guests with a wide range of disabilities. So if you’re thinking about booking a holiday at Disneyland Paris, all we can say is: Yes, good decision!
Of course, you should do a bit of research before your trip to get an idea of what to expect. Everyone is different and has their own needs and expectations when visiting a theme park. Here you’ll find the most important information for wheelchair users visiting Disneyland Paris.

You can apply online for an Access Card before your holiday with Mickey Mouse and his friends. This will make certain things easier for you during your visit. We explain how it works and what you need to know here. If you only use a wheelchair temporarily, rather than permanently, take a look at our section on the Easy Access Card as well.

Attractions suitable for wheelchair users

Many of the attractions in both parks are accessible to wheelchair users. Some can be experienced without leaving your wheelchair, while others require you to transfer from your wheelchair into the ride vehicle (sometimes within a specified time limit). Unfortunately, some rides cannot be used at all due to features such as steps.
You’ll find the relevant lists further down this page.

To get priority access to attractions, you’ll need to provide proof of severe disability in the form of an official disability card. This allows you to obtain a Priority Card and bring up to four accompanying guests to attractions and two to shows and parades.

What to do in the event of an evacuation

There are also set procedures that must be followed in the event of an evacuation. Disneyland Paris has therefore put together a guide showing you how easy or difficult an emergency evacuation might be before you board an attraction. If you cannot be evacuated safely, you may be unable to ride.

The list below shows the three evacuation difficulty levels, from 1 to 3:

  1. Simple evacuation conditions
    There are no particular difficulties in leaving the ride vehicle. The exit, an outdoor area or a designated safe area is only a few steps away.
  2. Evacuation through dark or narrow areas, or via a few steps
    You may encounter these obstacles on your way to the exit. You must be able to leave the vehicle independently at any point along the ride.
  3. More complicated evacuation conditions
    Leaving the attraction may be more difficult and could require a ladder, a rescue boat or a lifting platform. You may also need to walk longer distances, potentially through dark or narrow areas or up or down steps.

Information for wheelchair users at Disney hotels

All Disney Hotels are equipped to meet the needs of wheelchair users. If you need a wheelchair-accessible room, please make sure to request one when booking to ensure you are allocated a suitable room.
Bathing aids can be provided on request.

The pools at Disney Hotels are equipped with lifts. You’ll also find accessible changing rooms there, so nothing stands in the way of enjoying a swim.

You can travel to and from the parks or the airport on Disneyland Paris buses, which are wheelchair-accessible. If you cannot use these buses for any reason, you can ask at City Hall, Studio Services, the Disney Express counter or your Disney Hotel to arrange a minibus specifically designed for wheelchair users. However, you may have to wait for one.

Accessible parking spaces are available at both the main car park and your Disney Hotel upon presentation of your parking permit.

Information on shops and restaurants for wheelchair users

Almost all restaurants are wheelchair-accessible and have a till with a counter at wheelchair height. If this isn’t the case, simply ask the nearest Cast Member for help. The same applies to shops throughout the resort. Look for the wheelchair symbol at the designated till. If you have trouble finding your way around or need assistance, don’t hesitate to ask a Cast Member.
