Over a year and a half after Planet Hollywood in Disney Village permanently closed, construction permits have revealed that an Italian restaurant will take over the space.
New Italian Restaurant at Disney Village
Disney Village is an area located outside of the Disneyland Paris theme parks featuring dining, shopping, and live entertainment. It is similar to Disney Springs and Downtown Disney District. The entertainment quarter’s version of Planet Hollywood permanently closed on January 7, 2023.
DLP Works has now discovered a new building permit filed on July 16, 2024 for an Italian restaurant that will take over Planet Hollywood’s old location.
The new restaurant is rumored to be managed by Groupe Bertrand, which also manages the district’s new French restaurant, Brasserie Rosalie, and The Royal Pub. Both restaurants opened last year.
Disney Village has been undergoing a significant reimagining. Work to the area includes a complete makeover for The Sports Bar, a transformation of the Disney Store into Disney Wonders, the addition of a Disney home store (replacing Disney Fashion Junior), the addition of a Disney lifestyle shop, a new McDonald’s, and general landscaping and lighting updates. Emblems representing every Disney Park returned to the entertainment quarter last year.
