Face masks optional in most places at Disney World starting June 15

Walt Disney World is making face masks optional for fully vaccinated guests starting June 15 with the exception of Disney transportation.

This means fully vaccinated people will no longer be required to wear masks on attractions or any indoor locations. Disney will not require proof of vaccination, but “expect Guests who are not fully vaccinated to continue wearing face coverings in all indoor locations, and upon entering and throughout all attractions and transportation.”

This is major step Disney World has taken in moving back to normal. Disney World has already removed physical distancing markers and reopened splash pads, arcades and kids playgrounds.

There is some speculation that fireworks and other live entertainment might soon resume.

Here are the changes Disney has announced on its website:

Beginning June 15, you will start to notice the following changes:

FACE COVERINGS

Face coverings will be optional for fully vaccinated Guests in most areas. Face coverings will still be required of all Guests on Disney transportation, including Disney buses, monorails and Disney Skyliner. While we will not require proof of vaccination, we expect Guests who are not fully vaccinated to continue wearing face coverings in all indoor locations, and upon entering and throughout all attractions and transportation. Guests must observe current policies on face coverings until June 15.

PHYSICAL DISTANCING

We will be relaxing physical distancing guidelines for Guests. This will be visible in places like queues, shops, restaurants, attraction boarding, transportation and our theaters. It’s important to remember that some experiences and entertainment may still be operating with limited capacity or may remain temporarily unavailable. We’re not quite ready to bring back everything yet, but we are optimistic and look forward to the day when Disney pals and princesses are able to hug once again.

CLEANING

We will continue the high standards for cleanliness and sanitation we’ve always set for ourselves. Cleaning supplies and hand sanitizer stations will still be available.

We encourage people to get vaccinated.
