Are vapes banned at Disney?

Disney World has a strict no-smoking policy, which includes vaping. Smoking and vaping are only allowed in designated smoking areas located throughout the parks and resorts. These areas are marked with signage and can be found on park maps and in the My Disney Experience app.



In 2026, Disney maintains a strict ban on vaping inside all of its theme parks, water parks, and the Downtown Disney or Disney Springs districts. While you are legally allowed to bring a vape device or e-cigarette through the security checkpoints and into the resort, you are strictly prohibited from using it anywhere within the park gates, including in ride queues, restrooms, or outdoor walkways. Smoking and vaping are relegated exclusively to designated smoking areas located outside of the main park entrances. Violating this policy can result in a stern warning from Cast Members or, in cases of repeat offenses, being escorted from the park without a refund. Disney hotels also enforce this rule, with vaping prohibited in guest rooms and on balconies; those caught vaping in their rooms may be charged a "room recovery fee" ranging from $250 to $500 to cover deep cleaning. This smoke-free policy is designed to ensure the comfort and health of all guests, particularly families with young children, by maintaining a clean-air environment throughout the "Magic Kingdom."
