The new World of Frozen in the soon-to-be Disney Adventure World is the second Disney land inspired by this favorite film, following the first World of Frozen that opened in Hong Kong Disneyland in late 2023.

The new land will feature the village of Arendelle as well as Elsa’s iconic ice palace along the North Mountain. It will offer a version of Frozen Ever After, the Frozen-inspired ride at Hong Kong Disneyland and Disney World’s EPCOT, as well as character meet-and-greets, dining and shopping, and a new show.

Guests can dine at the quick-service Nordic Crowns Tavern, featuring galleries of paintings and royal artifacts, and enjoy a customizable dining experience inspired by Nordic cuisine. The land will feature Arendelle Boutique, featuring merchandise from the films and an exclusive selection celebrating Scandinavian craftsmanship.

In the land, guests can enjoy a royal meeting with Anna and Elsa, as well as encounters with Oaken or Mossie in Arendelle Village. A new version of Olaf will make appearances here in the Arendelle Bay show in World of Frozen.

While the park will officially be renamed to “Disney Adventure World” when World of Frozen opens, there are some major new additions still on the horizon. These include a family-friendly attraction inspired by “Up,” a ride inspired by “Tangled,” and a major new land introducing the first-ever Lion King attraction. The Lion King ride, in particular, has captured the attention of fans—it looks like such a cool new concept! You can see all details about that upcoming ride and land here.
