According to Disney leaders, this attraction will open in time for the 50th anniversary of Walt Disney World Resort in 2021.
“Ratatouille”-inspired Attraction Coming to France Pavilion: Similar to the 4-D attraction Ratatouille: The Adventure that opened at the Walt Disney Studios Park in Paris in 2014, guests will be able to shrink to Remy’s size and scurry to safety in a dazzling chase across a kitchen with the sights, ounds and smells of Gusteau’s legendary Parisian restaurant. According to Disney leaders, this attraction will open in time for the 50th anniversary of Walt Disney World Resort in 2021.
