Attraction Requirements

Stay safe, stay smiling - know the magic's limits!

For your safety and enjoyment, a number of restrictions and recommendations are given with each attraction at the two Disney Parks. From strict height requirements for roller coasters to warnings of intense experiences unsuitable for small children, these help you to decide the attractions that are right for you.

It was Walt Disney's dream that Disneyland could be a place where young and old can have fun together, and his dream has certainly come true - whether you're a thrill seeker or prefer things at a more leisurely pace, Disney Parks are the most welcoming, fun and accessible theme parks on Earth.

Listed here are the restrictions for all attractions with important safety, height or age restrictions applicable to all guests. Listings also feature tips for disabled guests and those with medical conditions.
