Can minors enter Disney alone?

What is the minimum age requirement for unaccompanied children to enter Walt Disney World theme parks, water parks and other locations? A: Children under age 14 must be accompanied by a Guest age 14 or older to enter the following Walt Disney World parks and locations: Magic Kingdom Park.



At both Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort, the policy is that children under the age of 14 must be accompanied by a guest who is at least 14 years old to enter the theme parks. Once inside, the rules for riding attractions are slightly stricter: to board any ride, children under age 7 must be accompanied by a person aged 14 or older. This means a 14-year-old could technically "supervise" their younger siblings for park entry, but they must be at least 14 to help a 6-year-old on a ride. For late-night visits to areas like the Downtown Disney District, minors under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian after 10:00 PM. Disney staff (Cast Members) are trained to look for unaccompanied children, and if a child appears lost or too young to be alone, they will be escorted to a "Lost Children" station until a guardian is located.
