Hey there, Kim. Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel with your question. I see that your trip is quickly approaching. I bet you are getting so excited!
I love celebrating a birthday at Walt Disney World. In fact, it's been the place where my family has celebrated all of those major milestones over the years. Back in 2009, Walt Disney World ran a promotion called "What Will You Celebrate", where Guests were able to get free admission on their birthdays. That offer expired at the end of that year and hasn't been offered since.
If you are planning to be at
Walt Disney World for a birthday, be sure to stop by
Guest Relations at any
Walt Disney World Theme Park or at the front desk of any
Walt Disney World Resort Hotel to pick up a complimentary "I'm Celebrating Button". Cast Members and other Guests alike will go out of their way to wish you (or whoever is wearing it) a very happy birthday! It definitely will put a smile on your face. If you've made
advanced dining reservations for a birthday meal, be sure to make a note of your celebration on your reservation and mention it again when you check-in at the restaurant. Often times you'll be surprised with a sweet treat at the end of your meal, candles and maybe even a song. It's a fun way to celebrate.
Walt Disney World Cast Members really do go out of their way to make a birthday feel really special. Even though you won't be getting in for free, it will still be a day to remember always. I hope this helps answer your question. If you have any others before your trip, please feel free to come back and ask me. Enjoy!
