Disney Springs has recently changed their parking rules at Disney World, and it could affect you.

Access from the Lime Garage
Recently, Disney Springs announced that they changed its parking rules. Disney is cracking down on Disney fans waiting HOURS for the newest pin drop. New pins are often released on Tuesdays, and while we love seeing them online, sometimes people prefer to go into Disney Springs to grab them in person. If you’re waiting for pins to drop or are planning to attend any other merchandise events, you’ll have to change your parking plan.
Now, at Disney Springs parking garages, as well as the rideshare loops, will not open to guests until 7 AM on special event merchandise days. This is an attempt to curb people from parking in the garages overnight, and yes, that will include on Tuesdays for new pin drops.
This also means that, even if you’re just planning to get to Disney Springs early for another reason on Tuesdays, or on a day that also happens to be a large merchandise drop, you won’t be able to enter until 7 AM. If you arrive in your vehicle or in a rideshare before 7 AM, you will be asked to leave and come back at 7 AM.
