What happens if it rains all day at Disney World?

What is this? The show must go on, and even when it is rainy, Disney World is open. Now, of course if Disney does happen to close for a weather event (like a hurricane) they will issue refunds then. But, if it is just a rainy day at Disney, the parks will remain open and no rain checks or refunds will be given.

Does it rain a lot at Disney World? Some months of the year, there is a LOT of rain. In fact, it is quite normal to see nearly daily rain showers in the summer. There's a lot you can do to prepare for the rain, though – like bringing good ponchos, multiple pairs of shoes, and positive attitudes.

You won't see princesses around the Disneyland entrance or Goofy ambling down the street in the rain. While the pre-planned character meet-and-greets will still be happening, don't plan on seeing characters just walking around. It does take away a little of the magic (probably mostly for ME!)
