Imagine this. You’re strolling through Magic Kingdom, shiny new balloon bobbing gently in the breeze. Then, you suddenly realize you’re about to embark on an attraction that your balloon cannot. In the past, this might have meant leaving your beloved balloon outside to fend for itself. But not anymore! Thanks to the expansion of Balloon Daycare, select attractions at Magic Kingdom now offer a solution for guests who find themselves in this predicament.

Balloon Daycare originated at Disney’s Animal Kingdom this past February. It quickly became a guest favorite, prompting its expansion to Magic Kingdom.

Balloon Daycare is a completely complimentary service included with every balloon purchase. It allows guests to leave their balloons near the entrance of select attractions where they are carefully cared for by cast members. These cast members will ensure your balloon is safe and sound while you enjoy your ride. When you disembark, return to the attraction’s entrance to retrieve your balloon. Cast members will return your balloon with a personalized note sharing what your balloon did while you were away.

This expansion of Balloon Daycare to Magic Kingdom is part of Disney’s ongoing commitment to enhancing the guest experience. It’s a small, yet significant, detail that adds convenience and peace of mind for balloon owners. As a result, guests can now enjoy all that Magic Kingdom has to offer without worrying about their balloons.

So, the next time you find yourself at Magic Kingdom with a balloon in hand, remember Balloon Daycare. Whether you’re taking the wildest ride in the wilderness or plunging into the waters of Pirates of the Caribbean, your balloon will be waiting for you when you return, ready to continue your magical adventure.
