From Walt Disney World Resort to Disneyland Resort, there’s a countless number of attractions, live entertainment shows, souvenirs, snacks, and more. In short, they’re huge operations with a lot of moving parts.
But with huge operations such as theme parks come a lot of rules. Like…a lot of rules. And we know that rules are no fun, but at a place like a Disney Park, rules are put in place to keep everybody safe.

Announcements such as “Please keep all hands, arms, legs, and feet inside the ride at all times” and “Please refrain from flash photography” are so ingrained in our brains because we’ve heard them a million times while visiting Disney World.
Other rules are obvious because of their inherent implication. After all, you don’t always need a sign to tell you not to climb over a fence and into a restricted area.

It shouldn’t have to be said, but if you’re ever visiting a Disney Park, do not cut across an oncoming parade. It’s not worth the risk of injury, or of being banned from the Park.
