AI-generated summary
The Space Mountain attraction opened in 1995 at Disneyland Paris before being transformed into Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain.
Announced during the D23 convention in Anaheim, the news immediately delighted fans: Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain, one of the flagship attractions of Disneyland Paris, will close its doors at the end of 2027. Don't panic, this is not a permanent disappearance, but a temporary closure of several months for a major transformation. The attraction will return under its original name and theme: Space Mountain – From the Earth to the Moon.
Inspired by Jules Verne's novel From the Earth to the Moon, the experience became famous thanks to the gigantic 22-meter cannon that propels the trains. A unique version closely linked to French heritage, which other parks around the world envy.
“Not an exact copy of the original”
We have rarely heard so many cries to announce the return of an attraction. The Honda Center in Anaheim, California roared with joy when the Disney teams announced the big return of the original version of Space Mountain. Goodbye to the Star Wars universe and welcome back to Jules Verne. For a decade, the attraction transported millions of people into hyperspace. But fans have long been calling for the return of the Moon and the French writer's universe, much more consistent with Discoveryland.
“For me the 1995 attraction has the perfect identity. It perfectly mixes the Disney universe with the values of imagination and French culture, with this famous work by Jules Verne. I really believe that we need to return to this version and that new generations must enjoy this attraction,” explains Michel den Dulk, vice-president of Walt Disney Imagineering. But this version “will not be an exact copy of the original”, warns the Dutchman who intends to bring back “a few familiar moments during the show, but also some surprises”.
The crazy fans
The closure at the end of 2027 is not motivated by a lack of success, quite the contrary. It is part of a broader project to renovate the most iconic attractions of the Parisian park. For many fans, this is a victory. The Star Wars theme, although it appealed to part of the public, was never unanimous. “I find it funny that the D23 announcement that made me react the most was the one about the return of this version of Space Mountain,” says Danielle, whom we met during a conference on the attraction… Even if I’ve never done it and I’ve never been to the park,” the American admits hilariously.
Michel den Dulk has of course heard the enthusiasm of the fans who even put Space Mountain in trend on X during the announcements of new products for Disney around the world. “This was the first request from our fans and it shows me that the attraction has had a strong impact since its opening thirty years ago. So, even though we've seen other stories over the years, it's time to bring Jules Verne back. » he finishes.
