Disney Springs Parking
Expect parking garages at Disney Springs to fill up by midday on Thanksgiving and the weekend.
Lime Garage and Orange Garage are the most popular. Grapefruit Garage is across the street and has a convenient pedestrian bridge. Finally, the surface parking lots near Cirque du Soleil are usually overlooked. Just know these surface lots are at the far end of Disney Springs, and the West Side, and the rows are not as clearly marked as the ones in the garage. So, take extra note of your car’s location.
Wear comfortable shoes, you can expect lots of walking on this busy weekend.
While you’re on Disney property enjoying Thanksgiving, consider stopping at one of the Disney Hotels with the Best Christmas Decorations.
