Can you wear a small backpack on Disney rides?

Any bags, coolers, or backpacks taken into the theme parks must be no larger than 24 long x 15 wide x 18 high. Larger bags simply would not fit into the attractions. There are lockers available for rent near the entrances to each theme park, but they truly are not convenient.

I have found that they are not quite big enough for a backpack. So, what I do is put the backpack on the floor of the ride vehicle and put my feet through the straps. This has always been perfectly sufficient for securing the pack for me and it is what I've seen many, many other people do.

Wear a fanny pack or use a VERY secure pocket that zips closed. The coasters are intense. A cross body bag would make it very difficult to secure the harnesses on the rides. Plus it would likely fly up and smack you in the face.

So even if a park doesn't make you go through metal detectors at a coaster's queue, stow the phone anyway. And that means leaving it at the station, in a locker, or at the very least inside a closed pocket where it can't fly out during the ride. That goes for anything you're carrying with you in the park, too.
