I know a child needs a ticket for WDW at the age of 3. What if their birthday is 2 days after we check in? We are going for 6 days and our grandson is now 2. He would turn 3 two days after we check in.

Hi Gary! Thanks so much for stopping by the Disney Park’s Mom’s Panel today. Since your grandson will be two when you check in, you can consider him a two-year-old for the length of your stay. Walt Disney World does not require a birth certificate or any other proof of age when purchasing park tickets. Just one small word of advice though: start saving now for his four year old birthday next year. After one trip to the place where Unforgettable Happens, I think I know what will be on his birthday list for next year too...Another visit to Walt Disney World! Have an amazingly magical vacation and please come back to see us with any other questions you might have. (P.S. I’m a grandparent too and there’s nothing like being at Walt Disney World with grandkids… have the time of your life!)
