On the Go in the Parks: May 29-31, 2020
What’s New This Weekend On the Go in the Parks
The First Disney Operated locations opened at Disney Springs this week, which was really cool because it was great to get a look at how the virtual queue works!
Disney Springs is utilizing this system at both World of Disney and the Marketplace Co-Op, and to enter these shopping locations when it is busy you needed to join a virtual queue.
To join the virtual queue find the Cast Member managing the queue near the entrance to the location, give them your cell phone number, and they will send you a text when it is your time to shop.
It’s super simple!!!
The third location that opened was D-Luxe Burger for mobile orders. YUM!!!!

10am – 10pm
It’s really great to have Disney Springs open again for guests, and it keeps getting better because now you can find Stormtroopers about the AMC theater entrance near Splitsville and in the Town Center above Ever After Jewelry Co. & Accessories.
If you are going to make your way to Disney Springs, make sure that you:
- Bring your mask (here’s a quick no-sew mask DIY),
- Make any dining reservations you would like in advance online, and
- Take the time to be patient as Cast Members are still getting used to new cleaning procedures.
- Check out these helpful Tips & Tricks on where to park and more!
4pm – 10pm
It was so great to once again see people roaming CityWalk, but I will caution you that I expect the area to be busy this weekend so there a few things you can do to cut down on your waits!
To make your visit easier:
- Download the Official Universal Orlando Resort App as they are encouraging cashless transactions.
- Plan to arrive early: They are limiting the number of guests they are allowing in the CityWalk area, and there can be a back up at the parking plaza as self-parking is free.
- Be prepared – Have that mask on and ready as you approach the temperature check.
- Be patient – Mind those 6ft social distancing markers on the ground, relax, and make sure to enjoy your time once again at Universal’s CityWalk!!!
CityWalk at the Universal Orlando Resort is open daily from 4-10 pm, but please remember that the theme parks and resorts are still currently closed.
