What is the minimum age for my Disney experience?

People aged 13 years old and up can have their own My Disney Experience account and link with other friends and family members through the Family & Friends List, so your 15-year-old should be able to create their own account.



To create an individual My Disney Experience account in 2026, a guest must be at least 13 years old. This age requirement is strictly enforced to comply with digital privacy laws regarding minors. Children under 13 cannot have their own independent accounts; instead, a parent or legal guardian must create and manage a "managed profile" for them within their own primary account. These managed profiles allow the parent to book Lightning Lanes, join virtual queues, and make dining reservations on the child's behalf. Once a teenager turns 13, they can be invited to "share" their profile and set up their own login, allowing them to manage their own plans if the parent chooses. It is a high-value necessity for families to ensure all children are correctly linked as managed guests under one primary account to avoid high-fidelity complications when attempting to secure group reservations or boarding groups for popular attractions like Tiana's Bayou Adventure.
