Tips & Advice
- Buy your date-specific tickets online ahead of time, because a night can sell out even though the box office also sells tickets on site.
- Dress for the weather, because the whole Magical Forest is outdoors and your visit is an evening under the stars.
- Leave backpacks and duffle bags at home, because only diaper and childcare bags get through the security check and metal detectors.
- Bring cash or a card other than Discover, and bring an ID if you plan to borrow a wheelchair at the box office.
- Plan your visit before Christmas if seeing Santa matters, because he leaves for the North Pole after Dec 24.
