***Official March 2026 Thread***

[Elliemay2]

Hi!

First, if there is already an existing March 2026 thread, please let me know!

We will be staying 5 nights with tickets for 1 park a day for 4 days.

Previous trips have been at YC, CB, Pop and other values, as well as VRBO offsite.
We are traveling with 8 people.
3 Adults, 4 teens, 1 8yo.
3 first time visitors

What are your March plans in DW?
What are budget friendly magical experiences for an 8yo?
Im hoping for discounts to be added when they come out.

I just booked March 27-31 at ASMu. Going to watch my daughter's band march down Main Street!

I'd definitely try out the DuckTales World Showcase Adventure with the 8 year old. We've done it in a couple of older iterations (Kim Possible and Phineas and Ferb). You used to need to get a device from a CM to do it, but now it's part of the Play Disney Parks app. It takes you around World Showcase solving puzzles and it interacts with things in the park. There's also a version for Star Wars on the same app, but I've never tried that one.

I have been several times to watch my daughter cheer. Vacation Disney is much different than event Disney, but still fun! I will take any reason to go to Disney! We normally have older kids, so this will be much different with my niece (8yo). Thanks for the tips! I am hoping she will / can ride all of the rides. We will probably let the older kids/young adults separate from us at times. We are thinking of dining at Akershus so that she can see all of the princesses.

I’ll be lurking here over in the corner!

After 20+ Disney World trips, we are headed to Disneyland for the first time March 17-27!

Our favorite low cost activity at Epcot is the passport book. They’re for sale in any park gift shop. There are stickers & you can get them stamped in each country at the Kidcot stations.

In Animal Kingdom, Wilderness Explorers is a free activity where you complete tasks & earn stickers in an activity book.

Thank you! I will be checking on those for my niece. We have not done either in our prior trips. We did find that doing the PIN trading was beneficial after rides. Instead of the kids wanting to buy from the gift shops they searched for pin trading cast members.
