Disney World has made many updates to its mask requirements since reopening last summer.
Face Mask Signs
The parks have strictly upheld their face mask policies to promote safety for all guests and Cast Members in line with health guidelines. Masks must be worn at all times, except when stationary for eating and drinking. Now, there’s been a change regarding face mask policies.
The newest change will affect how guests wear masks when dining at a Disney World restaurant.
Garden Grill
The new policy, shared on Disney’s website states that when dining at a restaurant, guests must wear face coverings while standing, waiting, or sitting in dining locations. This means that the only time guests are permitted to remove masks is while they’re actively eating or drinking.

Previously, guests were allowed to remove masks once seated at their tables. Now, they must remain intact unless eating or drinking.
