In "Phineas and Ferb Summer Belongs to You!", the Eiffel Tower had made a cameo, and Heinz Doofenshmirtz and his daughter Vanessa went in it.
===Cars 2===
After Mater, Finn McMissile and Holley Shiftwell arrive in Paris, they drive past the Eiffel Tower, although Mater's attention briefly gets drawn by a mime performing in front of the tower. In the film, the tower is scaled up by 150%, the arches at the base are designed to resemble a wire wheel, the first and second floors have a facade inspired by Bugatti grills while the top is shaped like a Lodge spark plug from 1937.
===Tomorrowland===
The Eiffel Tower was the site where the secret society Plus Ultra was established by the tower's designer Gustave Eiffel, along with his friends Thomas Edison, Nikola Tesla, and Jules Verne during the 1889 Exposition Universelle. The Eiffel Tower was built to disguise a rocket launch platform, used to launch a ship to create a "running start" into the alternate dimension housing Tomorrowland. As one of the older means of entering Tomorrowland, it houses a Plus Ultra teleportation waystation hidden in a maintenance area. Frank Walker, Casey Newton, and Athena would use the Eiffel Tower rocket to enter Tomorrowland while evading Nix's animatronic foot soldiers.
===Soul===
The Eiffel Tower appears in the Hall of Everything.
==Disney Parks==
The Eiffel Tower is commonly used as a symbol of France in the Disney parks, with it serving as a stage for can-can dancing dolls in all versions of It's a Small World and a miniature replica of the tower serving as a decorative element of the France Pavilion at Epcot. It appears as one of the locations seen in the Soarin' Around the World attraction, though it is removed in Tokyo's version due to its resemblance to Tokyo Tower in that version's finale.
In The Timekeeper, a timelapse of the Tower's construction can be seen when the Timekeeper accidentally leaves the time machine in fast-forward. The Tower appears later in the ending scene when traveling to the Paris of the future.
The Tower is also referenced in the Explorer's Club Restaurant at Hong Kong Disneyland, where a journal entry from Lord Henry Mystic tells of him having to scold Albert the Monkey for trying to steal a loose rivet as a souvenir.
Eiffel Tower is one of some landmarks that can be seen on Glockenspiel, which was the clock tower of It's a Small World.
