Can my 1 year old go to Disney for free?

All Disney World guests under the age of three do not require a ticket to enter a Disney World park. That means that infants and toddlers can enjoy the parks for free, a major reason that many families choose to bring their little ones early to enjoy the Most Magical Place on Earth.

A perk to bringing your child under the age of 3 to the Walt Disney parks is that they do not need a park ticket to enter any of the theme parks. If you have booked multi-day tickets, you will not need to purchase a ticket for your child if they turn 3 during your trip, as long as they were two at check in.
