Unlike theme parks, Disney Springs does not need significant planning. However, you should plan dining reservations and identify any shops or bars you must visit. Currently, all guests are screened before entering, and it is advised you plan to enter Disney Springs 60 minutes before any reservation.

Disney Springs is not an inside mall, and you must be prepared for all types of weather, including the rain.
You do not have to take much to Disney Springs, but we recommend carrying water, a mobile phone, a camera, sunscreen, a hat, waterproof, and cash or credit card. If you stay at Walt Disney World, you can use your MagicBand to charge to your resort room.
In 2021 you will also need a face covering, and you might want to bring alcohol hand wash.

Should I book dining reservations before I visit Disney Springs?

You should note during 2021, many venues are operating at a limited capacity, and the Disney Dining Plan is currently not available.
The most popular dining locations at Disney Springs book up fast. Don’t expect to get a favorite dining location on the day, especially during periods of free dining. You should plan and book an Advance Dining Reservation as early as possible.
Many of the restaurants at Disney Springs also allow reservations on Open Table, and availability can differ. If you are struggling to book, make sure you check Open Table.
Also, consider booking reservations outside of peak dining periods. Often you will find better availability by eating mid-afternoon.

The Disney Dining Plan is currently suspended at Walt Disney World

The majority of table service and quick service locations do accept the Disney Dining Plan. Make sure you check the My Disney Experience App for information.
Also, there are plenty of opportunities to use your snack credits when visiting Disney Springs.Raglan Road
