    I’m a brand new Disney visitor. I have a “3 day park hopper spectator” ticket as my daughter will be there dancing at the High School UDA competition . Do I need to make park reservations?

    Welcome to planDisney, Stephanie! 

    I am SO excited to be helping a first-time Disney World guest! You're going to have the most incredible time cheering for your competitor AND experiencing all of the magic at Disney World! Oh boy! 

    Stephanie, you will need to make a park reservation for the first park that you would like to visit for each of the days you're visiting. Link your ticket (if you haven't already) to your account on the Disney World website or the My Disney Experience App. Once you've done that you can make theme park reservations! I would do this as soon as you can to ensure you get the parks you'd like to visit during your trip. It is rare, but sometimes parks become unavailable to reserve if they have reached capacity for that particular day. (If you change your mind, you always have the ability to modify your reservations.)

    After 2pm on the days you visit, you'll be able to go to any other park (as many as you'd like) until park closing at each of the theme parks. 

    Stephanie, be sure to visit Guest Services or a Gift Shop to get your free "First Visit" button customized! Wear that thing around Disney World and you never know what magic will follow you! 

    If you have additional questions, please come back to planDisney! We'd love to hear from you again! 

    Best of luck to your competitor!
