Wishing stars to leave at Chalet de la Marionnette and a Disney stay to win
A hot Lavazza drink, a blue star to personalise and a QR code to try your luck: Disney reveals a Christmas activity inspired by “When You Wish Upon a Star”.
Making a wish becomes a little experience of its own in Fantasyland. In an official press release published on 6 November 2026, Disneyland Paris presents a Christmas promotion created with its partner Lavazza at the restaurant Au Chalet de la Marionnette. The idea draws on a symbol from Pinocchio, the song When You Wish Upon a Star, inviting visitors to write a wish on a blue paper star.
Participation has two distinct aspects: a symbolic moment centred on wishes and a competition accessed through a QR code offering a chance to win a Disneyland Paris stay for four people, with special experiences. Disney announces this activity for a limited time, without detailing all dates or draw conditions in the text consulted.
How does the wishing-star activity work?
The process described by Disneyland Paris is simple, but each step has its role:
At Au Chalet de la Marionnette, in Fantasyland
- Buy a hot Lavazza drink offered at the restaurant during the promotion. Disney states that a blue paper star is given with this purchase.
- Write a wish, a dream or a thought on the star. The activity is inspired by the story of Pinocchio and its iconic song.
- Place the star in one of the two Wishing Chalets provided for this purpose: Disney locates one inside and one outside the restaurant.
- Check the QR code on the back of the star to access the competition. Having a star should not be equated with automatic entry or a guaranteed chance of winning.
The validation process, any forms and competition eligibility requirements must be checked in the rules available when entering.
What is the Lavazza competition prize?
Disneyland Paris announces a possible prize of a Disneyland Paris stay for four people including, notably, lunch with Disney Characters and a Disney VIP Tours experience, provided by Lavazza.
In the passage consulted, the communication does not specify the number of winners, nights, room categories, whether transport is included, age or residency requirements, or exact draw arrangements. It would therefore be misleading to invent these details or present the prize as an all-inclusive stay.
Three hot Lavazza drinks for the season
Alongside the activity, Disney details three new winter drinks exclusive to Chalet de la Marionnette during the season :
- Toasted hazelnut coffee: a variation with roasted, indulgent notes.
- Cinnamon-roll-flavoured coffee: an offering evoking winter pastries.
- Pear-flavoured hot chocolate: a coffee-free alternative according to the recipe name, without making claims about its exact composition.
The same announcement mentions a seasonal menu featuring chicken, lingonberry and cranberry sauce, baby potatoes and an almond and vanilla Christmas biscuit. The official publication used here gives neither contractual prices for these three drinks nor full ingredients (allergens, caffeine, milk). For this information, the restaurant’s menu and dietary information take precedence.
An experience linked to the new Christmas decorations
Chalet de la Marionnette will also receive new garlands, Christmas wreaths, illuminated trees and Geppetto-inspired decorations, with a photo spot evoking a puppet theatre. These details are covered in a separate blog story: Chalet de la Marionnette decorations with Lavazza.
This article focuses on the wishes activity and competition, two particularly useful pieces of information for Christmas visitors. To plan a visit, see our Disney Enchanted Christmas guide. The general season runs from 7 November 2026 to 6 January 2027 according to Disney, but the star activity is announced “for a limited time”: do not assume it is offered on every day of the season.
Where is Au Chalet de la Marionnette and what do you need?
The restaurant is in Fantasyland, in Disneyland Park. You therefore need a valid Disneyland Park ticket or pass to access this experience. The announcement confirms neither star distribution outside this restaurant nor entry from all Lavazza outlets at the destination.
The venue is particularly useful for a break during a family visit, but recipes, drink stocks, star distribution and operational conditions may change. Ask Cast Members for confirmation when purchasing and consult the competition rules directly on site.
See our Christmas visit guide, then discover Disney Village decorations and souvenirs to extend your day. These experiences are separate from the Lavazza competition.
