On this episode of Theme Park Trader, we’re diving into our full January 2026 trip report from Disneyland Paris — and yes, it was cold… but was it worth it?

We break down crowd levels, ride availability, seasonal vibes, entertainment, and whether winter is actually a secret sweet spot for visiting. From near walk-ons to bundled-up park strategy (layer game strong), we cover what worked, what didn’t, and what genuinely surprised us.

And speaking of surprises… we need to talk about the food. Because somehow — against all historical odds — it wasn’t terrible. In fact, there were moments where it was… good? We unpack what’s changed, where we ate, and whether Disneyland Paris might finally be sorting itself out on the culinary front.

Low crowds, honest takes, and at least one unexpected win — this one’s a fun one.
