Disney World has been adapting its safety guidelines alongside the ongoing pandemic.
Cinderella Castle
Currently, there are safety procedures in place for mask-wearing and social distancing throughout the parks. But now, an important update has been made regarding these policies.
Previously, guests were required to wear their face coverings at all times unless actively eating or drinking while stationary. However, Disney has updated this policy to allow guests to temporarily remove their masks to take pictures while outdoors. A statement on Disney’s website reflects that this change will take place beginning April 8th.

Keep in mind that you must be standing still while taking these photos, and you must maintain appropriate physical distancing from those around you. You are also unable to remove your face covering to take pictures indoors.
Orange Bird Mask!
This comes after Disney posted new signs permitting only 4 guests per social distancing marker — but removed them shortly after. We’ll continue to update you as Disney adjusts its policies. Stay tuned to DFB!
