Birthday badges/buttons?

[jacquiebg]

Can anyone tell me if DLP have the birthday badges/buttons as they do in WDW Florida (from City Hall, Main St. USA)?

Hello Jacquiebg - welcome to the DIS!!

I don't know if they give birthday badges out at City Hall - it has never been a given at DLP, as it is at WDW, I think. They did start something this year called a Touch of Magic - so someone celebrating a birthday should now get a treat such as a badge or balloon, which I think you get at your hotel. I assume that is still the case.

I thought I'd read they did this somewhere. I hope so DD will have her 4th birthday on our trip this year.

I have a clip which someone gave me which says DLRP Happy birthday with a selection of characters so I guess they have that.

Hi jacquiebg, welcome to the DIS!

Do you have to report the birthday to the hotel or whatever to get the treat? And has anyone ever gotten a birthday cake at DLP? It says they have to be reserved, I guess then you have to make dinner reservations somewhere and then order it?

Sometimes, when reporting a birthday at the reception upon arrival, they give you a VIP room if you're lucky.


Yes, it's best to order your birthday cake when making reservations. I've never liked the cake much (did it about 3 times so far), but they play a funny song and people clap their hands. Several cast members come your way, clap their hands and stay until the song is over.

It's my birthday the second day we are there. I thought it would be fun to get a cake. Hmm, if it's not that tasty, maybe I'll just get a big dessert.

I had NO idea that reservations at the restaurants were necessary, either!

Hi jacquiebg and welcome to DLP DIS board
We are a friendly bunch here so please join in on any other thread or if you have a number of questions then just start a new thread for each

If you have not had a look yet, posting guidelines can be found here and details regarding help on signatures here

I thought that at reception of your hotel or city hall you would get a birthday badge if they know about your celebration.

They aren't really necessary to do before you go, unless you really want to eat at a certain place, on a certain day, at a certain time!! Otherwise people report that they just make reservations on the day.

So if that is the case, can the cake be ordered then, or does it have to be ordered a few days in advance?

That's an excellent question. I think I'll call the Disney reservation line and ask them on Monday.
