Posted: Monday November 10, 2025 7:30am ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

Remy's Ratatouille Adventure at EPCOT is now temporarily closed as Disney begins its planned conversion from 3D to enhanced 2D digital visuals. The France Pavilion attraction will remain closed through Thursday, November 13, and is scheduled to reopen on Friday, November 14, 2025.

When it returns, the attraction will offer Early Entry for resort guests beginning at 8:30 am, with regular park hours from 9 am to 9 pm.

According to Disney's official statement:

"Remy's Ratatouille Adventure will experience a short downtime Nov. 10-13, 2025 and will return with enhanced digital visuals and clearer imagery projected in 2D. Remy's fans will spot new props and lighting enhancements when they are added to the queue and attraction over the next few months."

The 2D conversion removes the need for 3D glasses while delivering sharper, brighter imagery throughout the attraction. Guests can also expect new set details and lighting effects rolling out over time as part of the visual refresh.

A similar update is also taking place at the original Ratatouille: L'Aventure Totalement Toquée de Rémy in Disneyland Paris, where the ride is being switched to the same 2D projection system.

Some scenes were fine, but when my vehicle was to the side of the screen, the change was very noticeable indeed. For me, it’s a downgrade unfortunately.

I genuinely don't care for it. The 3D never made me nauseous, but this version does. I'm sure eventually it will be fine for me, but I'm not sure. On top of that, because you no longer have the glasses, you can see the plates you sit on way too well. It just very much exposes how much your vehicle is just going scene to scene and sitting in front of a screen. Alicia did a much better job articulating a lot of my feelings on twitter, but it just feels like a major downgrade.

Any opinions on the changes?

It's a little hard to find those guys in the dark and go there and back to a ride when you think you have a pass rather than just get in the line without a pass at that point and lose it.

Those were your Impressions de France, huh?

This was a little bit hard to follow for me, but if Figment used your pass, you should have gone to Guest Services and not the Soarin' cast members. They even have little stands throughout the parks now, so you don't have to go all the way to the front of the park. We had some issues with lightening lanes, and they were able to credit us a pass for Test Track when it was the only ride sold out for the day.

A ride going down during your LL window is literally the best thing in the world! When I went to DLR under G+, I specifically was trying to book things in the morning that are often closed (trying to stack multiple experience passes).

just rode it it was fine19 days ago

I'll clarify what I meant by lost. It was immediately converted to a multi-pass. We had to select another ride and when doing so there was nothing available in the app. We went over to figment and used our magic bands and we had a lightning lane but somehow it just used our multipass. We told the people at soarin that our multipass had been charged wrong and they said that there wasn't anything they could do about it. The second one we had a lightning lane for Ratatouille. It was around 7:00 after and we waited until Park close right at the gate. Hoping that it would open up with our kids crying and it never did. It was closed until Park closed so we lost that one. The next day we knew we were going to hop from magic Kingdom so we quickly got a magic carpet lightning Lane and checked into magic Kingdom so that we could get a lightning lane in another Park and we got Ratatouille for around 6:00 p.m. we hopped over there at 5:00 and by 6:00 again it was closed but at 6:30 it had miraculously reopened and we got on it after having three lightning Lanes. So we're 3 days losing one, some kind of glitch, losing one to Park closure. Waiting it out in hopes that we wouldn't have to come all the way back to Epcot and then the last one was just a sheer miracle that the ride opened up but it was glitchy. If we would have switched our am from our day at magic Kingdom and losing our 7 day out LL reservations on that third day we would have just gone to Epcot in the am and waited it out in the line because it's a must ride.

Especially Remy's considered a Tier One attraction at Epcot, so the only ride you couldn't use it on is Cosmic Rewind..

Can you clarify what you mean by “lost”? Usually when a ride is down, the Lightning Lane converts to one that can be used for another attraction of your choice (with certain exceptions).

just rode it it was fine19 days ago

In 3 days we lost two lightning Lanes due to the ride being down and on the third day it was down for an hour and a half. We thought we were going to lose our lightning lane again for the third day in a row after going to Epcot just for the ride after we held the lightning lane all day for it and it opened up and we actually got on it. The 2D effects are fine but a definite downgrade. Since it's reopening, it seems to be down several cars and running incredibly slow and while we were on it, we got stuck in two different scenes for at least five replays of that scene. The bugs are not worked out and in total we lost at least $250 and just lost lightning Lanes

I believe it was reported that additions would be made to the attraction itself, not just the queue, over the next several months. We’ll see what might materialize.

The one known change in Paris is the addition of an artist's loft to the queue. WDW already has a loft; the scope and placement of the other changes isn't known, I don't think.

I was under the impression it was for the queue, why though I cant figure out it was fine the way it was?
