Dreams do come true.

The happiest place on earth is planning on doubling in size according to new reports from The Telegraph. As if Disneyland Paris hasn’t enough to keep us entertained for days already, the park is planning on adding 14,700 hotel rooms, another theme park, three new themed areas (one supposedly based on Frozen), a second lake and areas for new live entertainment experiences. YES.

This expansion is set to cost €1.8 billion and Disneyland plans on having all new attractions and areas finished by 2030 with the first new attraction set for 2021. Once completed, Disneyland hopes to see an increase of five million visitors annually.

The nightly fireworks show is not one to miss!

Speaking on the news of the new expansion, chairman and chief executive officer of The Walt Disney Company said:

“The resort is already the leading tourist destination in Europe, and the transformative expansion we announced today will add even more of our beloved characters and unparalleled storytelling to create new lands, attractions and entertainment that further elevate the guest experience and drive new opportunities for tourism in this dynamic region.”

Alongside the expansion, 1,000 new jobs will be created on the grounds of Disney as well as more jobs in the surrounding suburbs to deal with the increase in tourism.
