    Are there smoking areas inside the parks? Or only outside

    Hi there, Abi, and welcome to planDisney!

    How exciting that your great big beautiful tomorrow holds a visit to The Most Magical Place on Earth! There's no time to waste, so let's get right to your question!

    Per Walt Disney World Resort policy, Walt Disney World's theme parks, water parks, the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, and Disney Resort hotels are smoke-free environments with the exception of select designated smoking areas. When visiting the theme parks, Guests who intend to smoke must do so in the designated areas outside the theme park's gates. It's also important to note that smoking marijuana is strictly prohibited at all times. 

    When looking for designated smoking areas, the Walt Disney World website helpfully features a map that will show you the exact locations smoking is allowed so that you can be sure to abide by the Resort policy. To utilize the map, you'll simply scroll to the bottom of the page linked above and then select the triangle of the destination you'll be visiting. From there, a list of smoking areas will populate, and when you click the name of a smoking area, the map will show you exactly where you can find it. Just like magic!

    I can confirm that the smoking policy is strictly enforced, as I was in Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park earlier this week and overheard a Cast Member politely asking a fellow Guest to put away their vape and reminding them that Guests must exit theme parks to smoke. 

    I hope this information is helpful, Abi, and that your visit to Walt Disney World is truly magical!
