  Magic Kingdom Park is divided into six themed lands across 107 acres, so there is plenty to see and do during your visit! There are as many as 40 attractions, shows and encounters to experience during your time in the Park, so we would recommend at least 2 full days to see and do everything the park has to offer - but we would return as many times as your schedule allows!

  There are a huge range of attractions, parades, character meet and greets and dining experiences to explore - more than 40 in fact! The Park is split into 6 different themed lands and is home to 4 iconic thrill attractions and more than a dozen family friendly attractions. However we really recommend you also take the time to enjoy some character encounters, which are fun for all ages, the fantastic parades and, of course, the magical finale in the Happily Ever After fireworks show.
