Where are the smoking areas in Disney Springs?

As of 2026, Walt Disney World maintains a strictly smoke-free policy across its theme parks and water parks, but Disney Springs remains one of the few locations with designated smoking areas. These areas are located on the outskirts and perimeter of the complex to keep the main pedestrian thoroughfares and dining areas smoke-free. Typically, you can find designated spots near the bus loops, specifically behind the Town Center area, and near the surface parking lots at the ends of the West Side and Marketplace sections. It is important to note that these areas are subject to change and are clearly marked with signage. You can find the exact, real-time locations by checking the "Guest Services" section of the My Disney Experience mobile app or looking for the "Smoking" icon on the physical guide maps located at the entrance. Note that the use of electronic cigarettes and vapes is also restricted to these same designated zones, and the smoking of marijuana remains strictly prohibited everywhere on Disney property.
