Is it true no strollers in Disney World?

Strollers must be 31” (79cm) wide and 52” (132cm) long or smaller. As a reminder, wagons are not permitted in our parks. Stroller wagons will also no longer be permitted. Loose and dry ice is not permitted in our parks.



No, the idea that strollers are banned in Disney World is a complete myth. Disney World is a family-centric resort where strollers are a necessity for most guests. However, there are strict size and style regulations that often confuse people. As of 2026, strollers must be no larger than 31 inches (79 cm) wide and 52 inches (132 cm) long. This fits almost all standard and double-jogging strollers. The most important rule is that stroller wagons (like the Keenz or WonderFold) are strictly prohibited, regardless of whether they are pushed or pulled. If your stroller exceeds the size limits or is a wagon style, you will be stopped at the security checkpoint. For those who don't want to bring their own, Disney offers high-fidelity rental strollers at the entrance of all four parks for a daily fee (approx. $15 for a single, $31 for a double). Remember, strollers are not allowed in ride queues and must be parked in designated areas, where Cast Members may move them to optimize space.
