Weather Overview for Disneyland

Disneyland Paris is located in the eastern suburbs of France’s capital. The climate is temperate with warm summers and cold winters. There is a marked difference in the weather between the seasons. Rainfall is moderate and fairly steady year round and rain showers can be sudden. Extreme hot or cold temperatures are rare in this area of France.

Summer:

Summer is generally warm in Disneyland, though heat waves can occasionally bring high temperatures. July and August are the peak summer months and see the warmest weathers of the year; daytime highs are regularly in the mid-20s and the night time temperature doesn’t tend to fall much below the mid-teens.

Rainfall is moderate in summer with the summer months averaging about 60mm. This is not a particularly high volume but brief summer showers can be quite frequent, especially in the afternoons and evenings. Averages show the summer months see about 12 days with some rainfall. Although these showers can arrive unexpectedly, they are usually over with quickly and the sun returns.

The short heavy showers of summer explain why the averages show that the summer months have the highest volume of rainfall in the year yet the least amount of rainy days.

Occasional summer heat waves can bring temperatures up into the 30s. Things can feel very hot at this time – spare a thought for Mickey Mouse and company suffering the heat in their suits!

Autumn:

The weather changes quickly in autumn as the warm summer weather gives way to winter.

September is still a warm month that often sees summer like weather. Daily highs average in the low 20s at this time and there is a good amount of sunshine. By November, however, the temperature is not often into double figures. October is somewhere in between with temperature averaging 12C.

Rainfall in autumn is much the same as at the rest of the year, with a monthly average of around 50mm, although early autumn sees a little more than late autumn.

Winter:

Winters are quite cold in Disneyland; January is the coldest month on average with highs of 6°C and lows of 1°C.

Temperature can dip below zero and snowfall is sometimes seen, though it is all that not common. Disneyland under a cover of snow can be a magical sight.

Rainfall is again an around 50mm per month, but it is more of the drizzly kind at this time of year so expect some of those grey wet days that we are so used to in the United Kingdom.

Spring:

The cold winter weather quickly departs and late spring can see some great weather. From March the temperatures once again begin to regularly climb into double figures.

While evenings in early spring are often still chilly, late spring can see summer like weather with highs into the 20s.

Early spring has the lowest average rainfall of the year, but you should still expect a few showers.
