Welcome to planDisney Lori!
With all the magic of
Walt Disney's 50th Anniversary Celebration, you are certainly going to want to take plenty of photos to remember this special vacation. However, I also do not want you to be disappointed if you arrive at a park gate and find you cannot carry in a certain item.
The Walt Disney World website has a complete list of
Property Rules. Here is what the rules state:
"Tripods or monopod stands that cannot fit inside a standard backpack or that extend over 6' are not allowed theme parks...."and
"Selfie sticks, hand-held extension poles for cameras...are not allowed" You will need to evaluate your personal item, as there is security screening at each park entrance.
If capturing that perfect magical photo is in your plans, make sure to stop by the
PhotoPass photographers in the parks. They will take some fun shots of you and your travel pals and link them right to your My Disney Experience account.
Wishing you a vacation full of pixie dust!
Cathy
