Quick Tips
- Parade viewing in the Frontierland area is not as busy as on Main Street U.S.A. or in front of Cinderella Castle . If the parade begins in Frontierland, sit near the beginning, so you can be the first to leave. You can get there early and get great seats, but since you are leaving first, you will be sure to find a shorter wait at an attraction or food and beverage location since everyone else will still be watching the parade. Make sure you are seated on the side of the street you want to be on once the parade is over.
- For tips, daily show times and updated attraction wait times, check the Magic Kingdom theme park "tip board" on Main Street, U.S.A. The Tip Boards are marked with a white, capital T in a black circle on your Park map.
- Meet popular Disney Characters, pose for photos and collect autographs during special meals at certain restaurants throughout Walt Disney World Resort. To find meals hosted by Disney Characters, search the Disney Dining Finder for Character Dining Experiences. Many meal times fill up quickly and require advance reservations. Book online or phone (407) WDW-DINE or (407) 939-3463 up to 180 days in advance. Guests under age 18 must have parent or guardian permission to call.
- Single and double-passenger strollers are available to rent at Disney Theme Parks. Quantities are limited and subject to availability. The Length of Stay Rental Ticket Option allows for multiple-day rentals. Baby Care Centers, where you can change and feed your baby, are located within each Theme Park.
