Disneyland Paris Packing List: A Spring or Summer Trip

Disneyland Paris Travel Guide: What To Pack For Your Spring or Summer Trip

Updated for 2025. Wondering what to pack for Disneyland Paris this spring and summer? You’re not alone! Packing for a magical trip can be tricky, especially when you're trying to balance comfort, weather and park essentials. Whether it’s your first visit or a return to the magic, bringing the right items can make all the difference. In this post, we’re sharing the complete Disneyland Paris packing list for spring and summer to help you prepare. Let's explore!

We have also written a dedicated list for autumn and winter which you can read here.

Let's Start With Clothing

• Cute Swimwear. Probably not the first thing you'd think of when packing for a Disney Park trip, but having a dip in the hotel pool is a great way to start or end the day. If your hotel has a pool, don't forget to pack some swimwear. We recommend packing a couple of swimsuits / shorts / bikinis so you can wear one as you let the other dry.

• T-Shirts, Tank Tops & Disney Tees. If you're looking for a simple outfit to wear in the parks, why not wear a simple tee or tank top tucked into a pair of jeans or shorts. Dig out your collection of Disney tees to wear too. We often pack one top for each day of the trip.

• Comfy Jeans & Leggings. Comfort is key when it comes to a Disney holiday. If you are like us and like full on days running from ride to ride, you'll want to be as comfy as possible. So pack a few pairs of comfy jeans, joggers or leggings.

• A Light Jacket, Jumper or Blazer. I like to pack a light jacket or blazer to dress up my outfits if we have a nice dinner booked or we're planning on going out for drinks. A light jacket or jumper is also good for keeping the chill off when waiting for the fireworks in the evening.

• Shorts, Dresses & Lightweight Trousers. Disneyland Paris can get very hot in the height of summer. We have been when it's hit temperatures of 30°C. When it's this hot, jeans are too thick and heavy to wear in the parks. So pack a couple of casual dresses, wide leg linen trousers and/or a pair of loose fit shorts in your suitcase.

• A Light Scarf. A light scarf can come in handy on those cooler, breezy evenings whilst waiting for the fireworks. It can also double up as protection from the sun, so remember to put one in your suitcase.

• Lightweight Pyjamas. A good night's sleep is essential for a Disney Park holiday. For the warmer months, bring pyjamas that are lightweight so you're not too hot in the night. Pack just 1 or 2 pairs depending on the length of your trip.

• A Rain Jacket or Poncho. Even in the spring and summer, we have been caught out by the rain. Make sure to put a rain jacket or poncho in your suitcase, along with an umbrella and avoid the hefty prices of buying these items in the parks.

What Footwear Will You Need?

• Trainers / Sneakers. If you have been to Disneyland Paris before, you'll know it involves a lot of walking. Comfy footwear is essential, so bring shoes that you can walk in all day. Remember to break in your shoes before your trip to avoid rubbing and blisters. If you're visiting for a few days, pack two pairs as even the comfiest pair of trainers can rub and cause blisters after a few days. When visiting in the warmer months, you'll also want to wear trainers that are breathable to keep your feet cool.

• Sandals. I like to pack a pair of sandals to either dress up my outfits if we have a nice dinner planned or if it's too hot for trainers. When it comes to choosing which sandals to bring, I would recommend skipping the heels and opting for a flat pair instead. And remember, comfort is essential for any theme park trip, so bring a comfy pair.

• Flip Flops. Flip flops are always handy for walking to and from the pool.

Bags & Accessories

• A Backpack. We have done a whole post on what type of bag to take with you into the parks and what essential items you should put in it. Read our post here

• Handbag/Purse. It's always nice to take a small, cute bag to dress up your evening outfits and carry your phone, camera and some money when heading out for a meal or drinks in the evening.

• Hair Ties. For those of you with longer hair, hair ties are an essential item to pack. In the warmer months, I like to stay cool and keep hair off my neck and shoulders, so I make sure to bring some hair ties. Hair ties also help tame my hair after a few rides on Hyperspace Mountain. I personally prefer to use snag-free ties or a pretty scrunchie to jazz up my ponytail or bun.

• Minnie Ears. If you have Minnie ears, remember to bring them with you. You can buy Minnie ears (and a number of other character ears) in the parks, so don't worry if you forget them, as it's a great excuse to buy another pair.

• A Hat. Protect your skin from the sun and bring a hat. Bonus points if your hat has Mickey on it!

• Sunglasses. Bring your sunglasses and enjoy the parade without squinting. I like to bring a backup pair, just in case.

Protect Yourself From The Sun With These Items

• Sun Cream / Sunscreen. It's important to protect your skin from sun damage, so don't forget to pack some sun cream.

• Lip-Balm With SPF. Alongside the general toiletries and make up, I always make sure to pack a lip-balm with SPF. My lips dry out in the sun and using a lip balm with SPF also prevents them from getting burnt.

• A Good Moisturiser. After being out in the heat all day, make sure to look after your skin and hydrate it with a good moisturiser.

• Aftersun Lotion / Aloe Vera Gel. Along with a good moisturiser, pack some aftersun lotion or aloe vera gel. Take care of your skin and apply some after sun, especially if you feel as though you've been burnt.

Items For The Room

• European Adapter. Chances are you're bringing electrical items with you such as a hair dryer, hair straighteners and phone chargers etc. Make sure to pack your UK to European adapter with you so you can use them.

• Teabags, Coffee & Hot Chocolate. If you're staying in a Disney hotel, you won't have tea and coffee making facilities in your room (unless you're staying in a club room) but you can request a kettle. You can also buy a tea box from reception which typically comes with a disposable cup, a couple of tea bags, UHT milk, sugar etc and a little box of biscuits. If you buy a box, be sure to pack a few extra tea bags, or a little jar of coffee or hot chocolate so you can make more hot drinks whilst in the room.

• Laptop or Tablet. After a busy day in the park, we're not always up for heading out for drinks or spending an evening in Disney Village. We like to bring our laptop or tablet and have a few films or tv shows downloaded from Netflix or Disney+.

• Drinks & Snacks. You can buy drinks and snacks on Disney property, but they can be pricey. Pack a few of your favourite snacks and drinks for the room and save a little bit of money. Standard Disney hotel rooms don't have a fridge, so just bear this in mind when deciding what to pack.

• Extensions leads. If you have a number of devices that you would like to charge overnight, consider bringing an extension lead. Some Disney hotel rooms have a plug socket shortage (we're looking at you Sequoia Lodge) so we're planning on taking an extension lead with multiple sockets on our next trip.

• Ear Plugs & Eye Masks. Disneyland Paris is a place for families as well as adults, so it'll come as no surprise that there are young children and unaccompanied teens in the hotels. So be prepared for the possible noise during the night. It's not always noisy, but we have been kept awake before by noisy neighbours. We recommend bringing good quality earplugs just in case. If you're a light sleeper, we would also recommend packing an eye mask as the rooms we've stayed in don't have blackout curtains.

What Other Things Might You Forget?

• Umbrella. Unfortunately it's often rainy in Disneyland Paris, even in spring and summer. Avoid getting caught out and pack a small umbrella in your case.

• Handheld, Rechargeable Fan. A rechargeable fan is handy to have in the summer heat. We bring our rechargeable fans for those times when waiting in a long queue and the heat is just too much.

• A Water Bottle. A bottle of water (500ml) in the parks will cost you around €3.30, so don't forget to pack a reusable water bottle. There are water fountains dotted around both parks where you can fill up your bottle with cold water that's safe to drink.

• A Coin Purse. We like to bring a small coin purse to carry bank cards, euros, our magic cards and train tickets.

• Autograph Book & Pen. If you or your children like collecting autographs, make sure to pack your book and pen close to hand for when you meet the characters. Tip: Bring a selection of different coloured Sharpies to make your autographs stand out (orange for Tigger, blue for Genie etc) Your book will stand out and the characters love the extra detail too.

• Powerbank. Along with your phone, you'll want to pack a portable phone charger. You can rent a charger onsite if you forget, but we'd recommend bringing your own. Don't forget the charging cable too.

• Pram/Stroller. If you have young children, you'll likely want to use a stroller. You can rent strollers in the park, but if you have one that's easy to travel with, save yourself some money and bring your own.

• A Mini First Aid Kit. I usually pack some plasters (band aids), antiseptic wipes, mini scissors, tweezers, pain killers and allergy medications. But make sure to pack whatever you and your family might need personally.
