Do you get in free at Disney on your birthday?

Unfortunately, Jennifer, you must still purchase a ticket for your special day. Disney does not grant Guests free entry if they visit on their birthday. However, I do love that idea! People regularly visit Disneyland Resort to celebrate major milestones, such as birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, honeymoons, etc.

In 2009, as part of the What Will You Celebrate promotion, Walt Disney World offered free admission for guests on their birthdays. That offer ended on December 31, 2009, but it may have been one of the most popular promotions ever at Disney because so many people remember it and hope it is still in effect.

Thanks for stopping by planDisney. We love helping Guests like us answer their planning questions. I'm happy to report that you do not need to bring a birth certificate or any kind of document to verify your child's age. If asked at the turnstile, you just have to simply share their age and you will be on your way.

easiest way and least fuss is just to keep a copy of his birth certificate with you, and if asked the age question, you can confirm, and you will not encounter any problem or embarrassment at the gate. Since people try to sneak their 3 year olds in for free,Disney does sometimes ask for proof of age.

There are only a few occasions when you need to show ID at the Walt Disney World theme parks. Most likely, you ordered your theme park tickets online and have linked them to your My Disney Experience account, so you can scan through the turnstiles without stopping.

You only need an ID if you want to partake in adult beverages. I got carded in Disneyland last year at the gate while park hopping, but that was because of some new picture system they were trying out. I have never been carded at WDW or Universal other than at hotel check in. Your Magic Band will be your ID for EMH.
