Your birthday is the one day a year you get to celebrate you! Why not do it at the most magical place on earth? Celebrating any holiday always feels more special when it’s done at Walt Disney World. No matter what age you are turning, a Disney birthday is always a memorable experience.

There are so many fun things to experience just for your birthday in all four of the Parks. Furthermore, Disney Springs and the Resorts have exciting opportunities to ring in your new age this year. Start your trip off by hitting Guest Services for your “Happy Birthday” button and start your day!

VIP Tours

A VIP tour is a sure way to feel special on your big day. While it is on the more expensive side, you deserve whatever you want on your birthday! VIP tours do require planning in advance but allow you to visit multiple theme parks, skip lines on rides, and be led by a knowledgeable Cast Member to learn more about all things Disney.

Birthday Cake and Treats

Disney is known for their delicious food, and any sweet treats for your birthday are no different. At Amorette’s Patisserie Guests can order their own cake and have it delivered. The cake can be delivered to their Resort or select table service at the restaurant of their choosing.

Dining Experiences

There are so many amazing table service options in all of Disney World. Depending on what style of food is your favorite to enjoy on your birthday, the options are endless. If you are looking to have a cake delivered for your birthday dinner, you’ll want to make sure it is a restaurant that participates in delivery.

If you don’t have a cake delivered, or that’s not your thing, all restaurants are generous enough to wish you a happy birthday with their own unique desserts. Otherwise, enjoy San Angel in EPCOT, The Hollywood Brown Derby in Hollywood Studios, Be Our Guest in Magic Kingdom, or Yak and Yeti in Animal Kingdom, to enjoy your birthday bash.

Floral and Gifts

The gift that keeps on giving! Disney’s Floral and Gifts allow Guests to purchase gifts like flowers and baskets of goodies delivered to their Resort room. This is a great option to surprise a friend or loved one on their trip. Gifts must be planned in advance, but it is a great way to scream happy birthday at the start of a Disney trip.

Disney has so many fun options to make your day extra special. In-room celebrations and one-of-a-kind events join the list of potential things to do if you really want to make the most out of your birthday trip. As Disney Dining said, “Simply being at Disney is a special event,  elevate the experience to make it truly unforgettable.”
