Wheelchair seating at shows

[Dacky619]

So this summer is going to be our first trip with our son (will be almost 2), who will either be in a wheelchair or a stroller as wheelchair. With his age and condition, the list of rides we will be going on is very very short. We know he will enjoy some of the shows, specifically Turtle Talk, Disney Jr live, VOTLM, Beauty & the Beast, FOTLK, Finding Nemo. We are trying to figure out the best way to experience these shows. I seem to remember separate lines at some shows for wheelchair guests, but we haven't been to WDW in a few years. I know they made the ride queues mostly accessible, did they do the same with the waiting areas for shows? We also have all of our FP+ that we can book, but I've read some shows have special seating areas for FP+. Are those areas accessible? If someone could just walk me through the basics of seeing shows like the ones listed above and recommend the best way to experience them I would appreciate it. Thank you!

unless it has changed stroller as wheelchair/ wheelchair seating is off to one side and at the rear. for that show you do not want up front but for a 2 year old it is too far away. seating is on floor and the puppets are on high raised stage. our 4 year old did better when he went and sat with husband rather than sitting with me and ECV in his stroller as a wheelchair

Post 34 on page 2 of the disABILITIES FAQs thread will help you.
It has information about where the accessible seating is for each show.

Pretty much every attraction is accessible through the regular queue. In the cases where there is a separate entrance or waiting area for wheelchairs, Cast Members are there to direct you and your party to those areas. Every show has seating areas specifically for wheelchair guests...usually along the back row, but sometimes on the end of an aisle.

I think you'll find more to do for your son than you expect Have a fantastic trip
