Do you have a disability or are you accompanying someone with a disability and would like to come to Disneyland Paris? Or would you simply like to know more about the priority card at Disneyland Paris? You’ve come to the right place.
In this article, I’m going to tell you everything you need to know about the priority card at Disneyland Paris. We’ll explore what the card is, how it works, and whether it’s right for you. In addition, we’ll discuss the different colors of the priority card, the information it contains, how to obtain it, as well as the other types of access cards available for people with long-term conditions and for pregnant women.
What is the priority card?
The Priority Card is a card that facilitates access to Disneyland Paris for people with disabilities. It aims to offer the most inclusive experience possible, by providing faster and, above all, simplified access to attractions, shows, parades and character encounters, depending on the type of disability. In addition to facilitating access, the Priority Card offers a 25% discount for the disabled person and the companion of their choice.
Is the priority card right for you?
The priority card is only available to people with disabilities, who hold an inclusion mobility card or a war veteran’s disability card, or any other similar official document attesting to their disability.
Priority card colors
The colors of the priority map are determined by the answers to four questions designed to assess the level of disability in the park. These questions are crucial to ensuring a suitable experience for every visitor with a disability.
- The first question concerns the ability to use a wheelchair.
- The second concerns the ability to go up and down stairs
- The third asks about the need to be accompanied, and finally
- The fourth question assesses the ability to be evacuated on foot in different conditions.
Answers are color-coded.
- Green indicates total autonomy, where visitors can embark, disembark and be evacuated alone or with their companions.
- Purple corresponds to autonomy with reduced mobility, allowing boarding, disembarking and evacuation alone or with companions.
- Orange indicates partial autonomy with monitoring required.
- Blue means an inability to move around without assistance.
- Grey is reserved for non-autonomous visitors requiring special evacuation by the fire department.
These colors make it easier to manage individual needs and provide a safe experience for all visitors.
What information does the priority card contain?
The information on your priority card includes your first and last name, photo, the number of accompanying persons authorized per attraction and per show (generally the limit is four people for attractions and shows, and two people for parades), language and validity period.
How do I get a priority card?
If you’re a visitor or a ticket holder, go to the City Hall or Studios Services on arrival at the park with your official proof of identity. You can also prepare your application in advance on the official Disneyland Paris website.
