Is Disneyland Paris open in June?

So first things first – is Disneyland Paris open in June? The good new is that it is absolutely open. In fact Disneyland Paris is open every day of the year so even if you are visiting on Christmas Day, Halloween or Easter you will be able to enter and enjoy the parks.

So the next thing we need to ask is …

Are Disneyland Paris rides open in June?

June isn’t a month when there are typically lots of ride closures. Disneyland likes to complete park maintenance outside of the peak seasons so usually undertakes large parts of its maintenance in January or February.

If rides are closed in June it is likely because they have had a rider error which usually resolves itself relatively quickly. Other closures are more long time but will be well advertised before you travel so it is worth checking the maintenance and refurbishment schedule before booking if there is a particular ride you are hoping to ride.

Another reason for ride closures can be heavy rain and storms. Fortunately in June these are relatively few and rain is unlikely to affect your Disneyland Paris Itinerary.

Note: If you are due to get very heavy rain or storms during your trip you may want to check out our dedicated visiting Disneyland Paris in the rain tips post.

Is Disneyland Paris crowded in June?

The truth is that as the weather in Paris heads towards summer, you will find that the crowds start to swell. I would say that June is the start of the peak summer season but the crowds are definitely not at their highest in June.

Depending on the year of travel it is worth mentioning that the start of June may be crowded if the Whitsun holidays in the UK run into June which they sometimes do.

Note: it may come as no surprise that it is almost always quieter at Disneyland Paris on a weekday as opposed to the weekend (outside of holidays when all bets are off). Be sure to check out this guide of best day to visit Disneyland Paris for more comprehensive information.

If you are traveling to Disneyland Paris with toddlers or are doing an adults only trip to Disneyland Paris and want to travel when the weather is good it may be worth considering early June once the schools have gone back from the Whitsun vacation as a good time to travel.

Are there any special events at Disneyland Paris in June

Special events are another thing that can have a huge impact on the park crowds. In June there is just one special event which could lead to additional crowds and that is Disneyland Paris Pride.

This is an additional ticketed evening event and is very popular.

In 2023 Disneyland Paris Pride will be held on 17th June 2023.

Disneyland Paris Crowd Calendar June 2023 / 2024

In France in June 2023 there are no public holidays. Therefore there is no public holidays in France to avoid in June 2023 for booking your trip to Disneyland Paris. However in some years Whit Monday may fall in June which will cause the crowds to swell.

Note: The next year Whit Monday falls in June is actually 2025 so this shouldn’t be a problem for a couple of years.

However although Whit Monday doesn’t fall in June it is worth being aware that the Whitsun UK school holidays are likely to run until June 6th in 2023 so the first week of June is likely to be very crowded.

Additionally the 17th June is likely to be crowded due to the pride celebrations. If you wish to experience Disneyland Paris during Pride then do head to the parks but be warned a lot of people love celebrating Pride in the parks.

We will update this information with the 2024 Whitsun Holiday dates once these have been formally announced. For more information on the best time to visit Disneyland Paris check out this post.

What is the Disneyland Paris in June Weather?

Weather in Disneyland Paris in June is usually comparable to that of the UK especially the UK South Coast. But for the avoidance of doubt we will go into more temperature and rain specifics which should help you plan for your Disneyland Paris trip a bit more thoroughly.

How hot is Disneyland Paris in June?

June is a pretty perfect month to visit Disneyland Paris temperature wise as the average daily temperature is around 17 C. Though it has been known to get as high as 23C and as low as 7C. In my opinion June has almost perfect weather for the parks as Disneyland Paris hasn’t got too hot yet – like it can in August.

Does it rain at Disneyland Paris in June?

The truth is you can experience rain at Disneyland Paris in any month with roughly 9 rain days a month. But the good news is that the rain should have little impact on your trip.

Rides only shut in extreme and heavy rain or thunder storms where lightening is a risk. This is unlikely to happen in June but if it does the closure is likely to be reasonable brief.

Remember if your visit to Disneyland Paris spreads over two months be sure to check out our other monthly guide for further weather and special event information:

What to Wear to Disneyland Paris in June

As the temperature starts to heat up in June your packing list will begin to transition from spring clothes to summer clothes. I recommend picking lighter weight trousers over jeans and if you forecast is particularly high you may want to add a pair of shorts to the packing list too.

I would also add a few short sleeve tees or maybe even a tank top for those traveling towards the end of the month. But never go into the parks without hoodies or jumpers especially if you plan to stay in the park all day to watch the fireworks and illuminations.

If you have little ones traveling with you I recommend the same sort of clothes and maybe a light summer dress for girls. Also if you have kids who want to dress up for visiting the parks – like mine insist on doing whatever the weather I recommend picking ones that aren’t going to make them too hot but that can still have a hoodie or layer put over.

Some of my little one’s favourite warm weather Disney costumes include Rapunzel, Ariel, Mirabelle and tinkerbelle. Click here to shop good value costumes

Top Tip: Be sure to bring costumes from home or buy in advance. You will pay a large premium for buying costumes on site particularly if you are at the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique.

Is it worth going to Disneyland Paris in June?

For me it is definitely worth going to Disneyland Paris in June as I love the warm weather that you get in Paris in summer, but in June the crowds are still not at their highest.

Also as one of the great things about visiting in Disneyland Paris In June is that even though the crowds are getting higher the parks hours will be longer as it is most likely that the park will be running its summer hours.

Usually if you are visiting Disneyland Paris in summer you can expects the parks to be open 9:30 AM to 9 PM on weekdays and 9:30 AM to 10 PM on weekends with 30 minutes early access for the Disneyland park for on-site guests.

Please note: these hours are only guidelines and park hours are released closer to the time of travel.

Best places to stay at Disneyland Paris in June?

If your Disneyland Paris budget will stretch to it then we recommend staying on site while at Disneyland Paris. The reasons for this are because of the extra perks being an on-site guest gets you.

These can be summarised as

easiest accessibility to the parks – either waking distance or shuttle bus is provided to onsite guests.
Amenities – some of the on site hotels have swimming pools (the more high end ones) – which are great to relax in after long days in the park especially in the summer when the parks get v hot.
Meet and Greets – usually in the morning and evening. It will be one character – you won’t be told who though usually it is one of the fab six, and they will be available to meet in the foyer. The queues here are much less than in the park so a great way to adding some autographs to your Disney autograph book.
Early Magic Hours – you get in the parks earlier than general public which optimises your time in the park and has shorter queue times.

Best things to do at Disneyland Paris in June

The Parades

This is another must whatever time of year you visit. I find June is one of the best times to watch the parades as you are unlikely to get wet while waiting but the sun is not at its strongest – let me tell you waiting for the afternoon parade in August can be a hot and sticky situation.

Watch Mickey and the magician

Mickey and the Magician is my favorite show in the park and is top of my Disneyland Paris Bucket list. The show is on at the Walt Disney Studios and usually runs February – September. If this is on during your visit in June be sure to add this to your itinerary.

Explore the Castle
