A long-standing tradition at Disneyland Paris is coming to an end, with the resort confirming that its iconic horse-drawn streetcars will be permanently retired before the end of 2026.
The attraction has been a familiar sight on Main Street, U.S.A. since Disneyland Paris first welcomed guests in 1992. Pulled by a team of Percheron horses, the vintage streetcars have transported visitors between Town Square and Central Plaza while adding an authentic turn-of-the-century atmosphere to the park.
The decision means the horses currently living at the resort’s Pony Farm will retire from service later this year. While Disneyland Paris has confirmed the attraction’s closure, it has not announced whether the streetcars themselves will remain on display or if a replacement experience is planned.
The retirement follows the end of another equestrian tradition at the resort. Horses previously featured in Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show were also retired after the dinner show permanently closed in 2020.
Horse-drawn vehicles have long been part of Disney park history, dating back to Disneyland in California when Main Street, U.S.A. opened in 1955. Disneyland Paris has continued that tradition for more than three decades, with the streetcars becoming a favourite for guests looking to enjoy a leisurely journey down the park’s main thoroughfare.
Although the attraction is set to disappear, guests still have several months to experience one final ride before operations end later in 2026. Disneyland Paris has not yet confirmed an exact closing date, but the retirement will mark the end of one of the park’s original opening-day experiences.
