Is there alcohol for sale at Disney World?

Alcoholic beverages can be purchased at Walt Disney World Resort by all Guests 21 years of age or older. Any Guest who wishes to purchase an alcoholic beverage at Walt Disney World Resort must present one of the following valid forms of identification: U.S. state driver's license (includes U.S. territories*)



Yes, alcohol is widely available for sale at Walt Disney World in 2026, but the rules vary significantly by park. EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom all sell beer, wine, and cocktails at both quick-service kiosks and table-service restaurants throughout the day. However, Magic Kingdom maintains a stricter policy: alcohol is only served at table-service (sit-down) restaurants like Be Our Guest or Liberty Tree Tavern, and there are no kiosks or "walk-up" bars selling drinks in the streets. You cannot carry an alcoholic beverage from a restaurant out into the park in Magic Kingdom. Outside the parks, Disney Springs is a hub for nightlife with numerous bars and lounges, and all Disney Resort hotels serve alcohol at their pools and lounges. To purchase, you must be at least 21 years old, and Disney is notoriously strict about ID; international guests are often required to show a physical passport rather than just a foreign driver's license.
