Your Complete Guide to Height Restrictions at EPCOT

Planning a trip to Walt Disney World is a fun experience. Even before you arrive at the resort, the days you spend dreaming about what’s to come and planning your days can be almost as entertaining as the trip itself. If you bring the family to EPCOT and have younger ones in tow, you’ll want to have all the height requirements fresh in your mind. The second-born Orlando-based Disney Park has so many attractions that are suitable for any height; there are only a handful that you will need to be conscious of in this park during your stay. Let’s run through everything you need to know:



Remember These DIS Tips For Kids & Height Restrictions:

  • Be sure to measure your children before you leave for your trip. Knowing what rides will be suitable before they get excited to ride them is always helpful.
  • Measure your child without shoes on; that way, with the extra little bit added by the shoe, there is a little buffer of extra height in case your child is slouching when they get there. Measuring in shoes can lead to disappointment if they aren’t quite as tall as expected on arrival in a different pair.
  • Don’t be tempted to look for ways to increase your child’s height. The restrictions are in place for many reasons, most of all safety, and there is nothing worth risking our family’s safety.
  • If unsure, try to measure your child at the ride’s entrance before waiting in line. Nothing is worse than the disappointment of seeing a child be asked to leave the line at the last minute because they aren’t tall enough.
  • If you have children who cannot ride, look for attractions with a Rider Switch option.
