Walt Disney World Statistics

With the initial success of Disneyland in the mid to late 1950s, Walt Disney set his sights on building another theme park, only this time on a much grander scale. After years in development, Walt’s vision became a reality when Disney World opened the gates of Magic Kingdom on October 1st, 1971. However, this momentous day came five years after Walt Disney succumbed to lung cancer, and thus, he was not able to witness the early and later successes of the park.

Although some elements of Disney World have slightly different outcomes than what Walt originally envisioned, we think he’d be pleased with how the park has evolved over the years, the giant it is today, the positive influence Disney World has had on society and culture along the way. The eye-popping Disney World statistics we discuss in this article really tell the story of Walt’s vision becoming a reality.

With an average annual attendance of over 58 million visitors, Walt Disney World is the most visited vacation resort in the world . The amount of manpower, creativity, machinery, and technology involved in keeping Disney World humming and innovating is simply astounding. Hidden beneath the attractions, resorts, restaurants, and shops are some eye-opening statistics that only an operation as grand as Walt Disney World could lay claim to.  Let’s look at some of these fascinating Walt Disney World statistics.

Annual Disney Park Attendance Statistics and Charts | Disney Parks Resources

Last Updated on: March 21st, 2024

Over the past half century, Disney has solidified itself as the undisputed leader in theme park attendance. Disney’s various theme parks are annually ranked among the top-visited parks in the world with the Magic Kingdom and Disneyland occupying the top two spots annually. Over the past four decades, the expansion of the Disney Parks empire beyond the borders of the United States has proven to not only increase the company’s footprint, but also place a number of additional Disney parks into the top attendance charts.  I thought it would be fun to take a moment and look at just how many people actually visit the many Disney parks each year. Here is a quick rundown of what I was able to find for annual Disney park attendance.

For many more Disney statistics (close to 600 of them), please visit this Disney facts post .

Please note that some of these Disney parks attendance figures are easier to find than others, so some of these are based on news reports and not official company tallies. All stats are linked to their source unless it was sent to me directly from the company. No stat listed should be considered in making any type of investment decision. In other words: This is the best I can find, but I don’t guarantee anything.

Disney Generates Billions in the Florida Economy. Here’s How Much

“From day one, the experience and the relationship that Disney has offered us is better than anything I’ve ever seen.”

James Petrakis—the owner of the Polite Pig at Disney Springs at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida—is just one small business owner who has seen his business transformed by the economic impact of The Walt Disney Company.

But he’s not alone.

Walt Disney World Resort —one of the world’s most popular vacation destinations—generated $40 billion in economic impact across the state of Florida and more than a quarter of a million total jobs in fiscal year 2022. That’s according to a new study from Oxford Economics , which was announced on Tuesday.

The study noted that Disney—which has boosted Florida’s economy, tourism, and small businesses for the last 50 years—has generated 263,000 direct and indirect jobs in the state. That’s 1 out of every 32 jobs in Florida, including Disney’s workforce of 82,000 across the state.

In fact, the study showed that without Disney’s impact, Florida’s unemployment rate would jump from 3% to 5.4%. The company also generates $6.6 billion in tax revenue.

For Petrakis, his business is just one of the 2,500 Florida-based small businesses contracted to supply products and services to Disney World.

“Our business has grown in the last three years by about 25 to 30%,” he said. “We are pushing numbers that we never expected out of fast casual.”

The study—which was commissioned by Disney—also reflects the economic impact of Disney Signature Experiences in Florida, including Disney Vacation Club and Disney Cruise Line. However, Disney’s impact is felt throughout a wide range of goods and services — everything from the painters who help maintain Cinderella Castle to the vendors who supply some of the treats in the parks.

“I am incredibly proud of how Disney has created meaningful change and benefitted people’s lives in Florida for generations, not just in establishing our area’s theme park industry, but also in how we have worked with other sectors across the state to do the same,” said Jeff Vahle, President of Walt Disney World Resort. “The numbers speak for themselves on why Disney is so important to fueling jobs, the economy and tourism throughout our region, and the future investments we’re looking to make will continue to provide even more opportunities for Floridians.”

Disney also gives back to Florida nonprofits by contributing hundreds of millions of dollars throughout its history.

Last month, the company announced another round of donations totaling $1.5 million going to 19 organizations. In fiscal year 2022, Disney cast members donated more than 233,000 volunteer hours in Florida.

However, Disney’s impact on small businesses isn’t just on the east coast.

Anita Ron—CEO of California-based commercial cleaning company BriteWorks, Inc.—worked with Disney to help the construction clean-up efforts of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, CA.

“Working with Disneyland Resort has impacted our company because we created jobs,” Ron said. “Working with Disneyland Resort helps us create more opportunities within our communities.”

And as Disney continues to invest in Experiences, so does its investment in small businesses.

Disney announced in September that it’s developing plans to accelerate and expand investment in its Experiences segment to nearly double capital expenditures over the course of approximately 10 years to roughly $60 billion.

Disney World Visitor Statistics 2022

Disney World is an expansive place and it has a reach far beyond little girls who love princesses. It is a place for the young and the young at heart!

When planning a Walt Disney World Vacation, you may be wondering what you will encounter when you are there. Will there be couples? Families? Little kids? Which park will be the busiest? When do people go?

Disney With Daves Daughters has conducted some surveys among over a thousand Disney fans to get information that will help you – and us! – know what to expect on your next Walt Disney World Vacation.

A note about our surveys: We conducted surveys in Facebook groups for people who are planning Walt Disney World vacations. The respondents are adults with computer and internet access. The respondents are people who have recently been to Walt Disney World or are about to go.

Let’s jump in.

Check out what's in this post!

What Disney Park is The Most Popular?

One of the most common questions is this one: what Disney Park is the most popular? There are four parks to choose from – Disney’s Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

We surveyed 256 people who have recently been to Walt Disney World and asked them “What is your favorite park at Walt Disney World?”

Magic Kingdom is the clear winner. 152 respondents said that the Magic Kingdom is their favorite park. Most love it because it is “classic Disney” – it has Cinderella’s castle and the classic Disney attractions.

EPCOT came in second with 61 vote, Hollywood Studios had 51 votes, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom had 42 votes.

It will be interesting to see how these change in the coming years. Hollywood Studios has been updated in the last several years with Toy Story Land and Star Wars – as more and more people experience these two worlds we wonder if more people will find Hollywood Studios to become more attractive.

EPCOT does seem to be the favorite park for adults who are visiting Disney World without kids. You can find out more about that here .

EPCOT is undergoing construction as of this writing and we wonder if it will become a new family favorite – or if it will continue to be the best place for adults to visit!

Things brings us to our next survey question:

Do You Bring Kids to Disney World?

We had 1,154 people respond to this question. People feel very strongly about kids and Walt Disney World.

We asked “How many kids will you be taking on your next Disney trip?” Answer options: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or more

Does this surprise you as much as it surprised us? 42% of respondents – 336 people – said they are not taking ANY kids with them on their next trip to Walt Disney World!

Another 42 percent of respondents take 1-3 kids with them to Disney. 200 people said they will be taking one child with them, 354 said two kids, and 137 people said they will be taking 3 kids with them on their next trip.

A smaller percentage take more than three kids. 64 people said they will be taking four kids with them on their next Disney trip, and 63 respondents said 5 or more kids. Those are mostly larger families or multiple family groups.

This brings us to our next survey question:

What Age Range Best Describes The Ages of Kids You Will Bring With You to Disney World?

We had a huge response to this question as well. We had 1,247 people respond. People are very opinionated about what ages of kids should – or should not – go to Disney World!

Our response options were:

• Toddler/Preschool
• Middle School
• High School

Unsurprisingly, almost 2/3 of people who bring kids to Disney World are between the ages of 1 and fifth grade. Personally, early elementary is our favorite age of kids to bring to Disney World!

We think five years old is the best age! They’re old enough to remember it and young enough for the magic to be extra special. We have been to Disney World with little kids, as adults with no kids, and with babies. In our opinion, no age is right or wrong age of kids to take to Disney World, but clearly there is a popular age range. Toddler and Elementary age kids would also find the Magic Kingdom to be the most fun, which could factor in to the Magic Kingdom also being the favorite park.

Lets break down the actual numbers. 487 respondents said they bring elementary age kids to Disney World and 290 said toddler/preschool. If you are one of the almost 25% of people bringing toddlers to Disney World, you will want to check out this post! It has everything you need to know about going to Disney with small kids.

As far as older kids go – 166 people said they will take middle school age kids, 123 said high school age, and 82 said adult kids! Only 61 people said they take babies to Disney World.

We were curious as to where people stay when they visit Walt Disney World. With the plethora of hotel options out there, what works for people?

On Your Last Disney Trip, Where Did You Stay?

We had 248 people respond to this survey question. We wanted to find out if people stay on or off site .

We also wanted to know which tier of hotel people chose if they stayed on site.

The answer options were:

• Off site hotel
• Airbnb/VRBO/similar
• Value Disney Resort
• Moderate Disney Resort
• Deluxe Disney Resort

The VAST majority of people stay on the Walt Disney World properties, and of those, they stay at the Deluxe hotels. There are definite perks to choosing the Deluxe hotels (including extra evening hours at the parks), but the price can make these out of reach for many people.

Here is how the numbers broke down for us:

• 8 people said they stayed at an off site hotel
• 14 people said they stayed at an Airbnb, VRBO, or similar accomodations
• 69 people stayed at a Disney Value hotel
• 52 people stayed at a Disney Moderate hotel
• 105 people stayed at a Disney Deluxe hotel

As you can see, over 90% of respondents stayed on site at Disney World. Of those, 46% of people stayed at a Walt Disney World Deluxe Resort. Where people choose to stay is dependent upon many factors, including price, kids , and proximity to the parks.

This brings us to our last survey question.

When Do You Plan To Visit Walt Disney World?

We had 478 people respond to this question. Our answer options were:

• EPCOT’s Food and Wine festival
• Spring Break
• Run Disney Event
• Other Disney Event
• Other time of year

These answers fit with our Disney Crowd Calendar predictions. Summer used to be the absolute worst time to go (as far as crowds are concerned). It is now not as bad as it used to be. What makes summer bad is actually the heat and humidity!

These responses do show that Disney events do draw in crowds. The food and wine festival will bring in lots of adults. Halloween – Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween – is an extremely popular time to go.

Disney has running events, cheerleading competitions, and other sporting events. These are all things to be aware of.

Overall these answers should help you know what to expect for your next trip to Walt Disney World!

Disney’s Magical Economic Impact: How Walt Disney World Bolsters Florida’s Economy

Walt Disney World Resort, a name synonymous with magic and wonder, extends its enchantment far beyond the realms of entertainment and into the economic stratosphere of Florida. A recent study by Oxford Economics reveals an astounding fiscal impact, highlighting Disney’s role as not just a dream maker but also as a significant economic engine.

Disney’s Economic Magic in Numbers: In fiscal year 2022, Disney’s presence in Florida generated a staggering $40 billion in total economic impact. This includes a direct contribution to the employment sector, with over 263,000 jobs, amounting to 1 out of every 32 jobs in the state. Disney’s workforce alone in Florida is a robust 82,000, playing a pivotal role in Central Florida’s employment landscape. The ripple effect of Disney’s operations is so profound that without it, Florida’s unemployment rate would potentially leap from 3% to 5.4%.

Tax Contributions and Public Service Funding: Disney’s operations also significantly contribute to state and local tax revenues. In the fiscal year 2022, Disney generated $6.6 billion in tax revenue, including $3.1 billion in state and local taxes. These funds are vital in supporting local schools, law enforcement, public safety, parks, and infrastructure developments in Central Florida, further underlining Disney’s integral role in the region’s socio-economic fabric.

Supporting Small Businesses and Local Communities: Disney’s economic influence extends to over 2,500 Florida-based small businesses, fostering a thriving commercial environment. This support is part of Disney’s larger commitment to over 8,500 small businesses nationwide. Local entrepreneurs, from painters maintaining the iconic Cinderella Castle to family-run vendors in theme parks, all find growth opportunities through their association with Disney.

Investments and Future Plans: Looking towards the future, Disney plans to nearly double its capital expenditures to approximately $60 billion over the next decade. This investment will focus on expanding and enhancing park experiences and increasing cruise line capacity, promising further economic stimulation and job creation in Florida.

Recap and Reflection…

As an avid Disney enthusiast and a longtime observer of its magical influence, it’s truly fascinating to delve into the economic impact of Walt Disney World in Florida. Recently, detailed studies by Oxford Economics and an in-depth Economic Impact Study have shed light on this topic, revealing some remarkable facts.

These studies highlight how Walt Disney World isn’t just a place of joy and wonder; it’s a significant economic powerhouse. It’s astounding to realize the extent of its contribution to Florida’s economy. The resort has created an incredible number of jobs, both directly and indirectly, playing a pivotal role in employment opportunities for Florida residents. This isn’t just about numbers; it’s about livelihoods and families being supported, thanks to the magic of Disney.

Moreover, the ripple effect of Disney’s presence in Florida extends to numerous sectors. From local businesses thriving due to increased tourism, to the construction industry booming with continuous development and expansion of the resort, the economic benefits are widespread. It’s not just a theme park; it’s a hub of economic activity that touches every corner of the state.

The commitment of Walt Disney World to Florida’s economy is also evident in its substantial tax contributions, funding essential services and infrastructure. This financial input is vital for the state’s overall development, showcasing how Disney’s role in Florida is deeply woven into the very fabric of the state’s growth and prosperity.

Reflecting on these findings, it’s clear that Walt Disney World is much more than a vacation destination. It’s a driving force in Florida’s economy, fostering growth, and offering opportunities that resonate far beyond the boundaries of the parks.

Top 18 Orlando Theme Parks and Attractions by the numbers

Orlando became the first destination in the U.S. to surpass 70 million visitors in 2017. Visitation numbers continued rising until 2019.

In 2020, Orlando suffered from a lack of both domestic and international travelers due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. As its theme parks reopened and the U.S. began softening its travel restrictions, tourists started to return in 2021.

Now, the destination is back on track to set a new record. During the first quarter of 2022, Florida’s total visitor numbers were up 38% on the same period in 2021. This is excellent news for Orlando, the most-visited city in the state.

Tourism in Orlando began to make a comeback last year. The city welcomed 59.3 million visitors in 2021, compared to just 35 million the year prior. When the U.S. softened its border restrictions in November 2021, Orlando started seeing upticks in international visitors.

Orlando’s visitor count fell to 35.3 million in 2020, a 53% drop off from 2019. This was the lowest number of visitors to Orlando in over 20 years. International travel was down by 75% , largely due to the U.S. travel ban that barred most foreign travelers from entering the country.

Orlando welcomed a record 75.8 million visitors in 2019. 

The Orlando International Airport, the busiest airport in Florida, saw 50.1 million travelers transiting through in 2019.

In 2019, an average of 6 million people visited Orlando every month. The destination’s busiest months — summer and the holidays — likely saw a lot more people, while slower periods could have seen less.

Meanwhile, an average of 1.5 million people visited Orlando every week in 2019.

Here are the number of daily visitors at the top 12 attractions in Orlando. Actual daily visitor numbers might be considerably higher during peak tourism seasons and holidays like Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. These figures could also be considerably lower during slower seasons.

Orlando’s 2021 rebound was driven by domestic visitors, with business and international tourist numbers still lagging.

The number of Americans visiting Orlando grew by 70% in 2021. Meanwhile, the number of business travelers only grew by about 50%. International travelers have yet to return in full force, with numbers growing only by 25%.

In 2020, the number of American visitors dropped to 33.6 million . Yet in 2021, domestic travel rebounded and 57.2 million returned to Orlando.

Domestic visitors by the numbers:

• 57.2 million in 2021
• 33.6 million in 2020
• 69.3 million in 2019

Most of Orlando’s visitors in 2021 came from the U.S. The top origin states for domestic visitors to Florida in 2021 were Georgia (9.5%), New York (9.3%), and Alabama (6.4%).

Of Orlando’s 75.8 million visitors in 2019, about 6.5 million were international . In 2020, that number steeply dropped. Only 1.6 million International travelers visited the tri-county region in 2020. Numbers started to slowly recover in 2021 when 2 million international visitors traveled to Orlando, a 25% increase from 2020.

International visitors by the numbers:

The U.K. was the second top market with 1 million travelers, followed by Brazil with 830,000 visitors, Colombia with 303,000, and Argentina with 232,000. 

As expected, international visitor numbers dropped dramatically across the board in 2020. 

International travel started to pick back up in 2021. About 2 million international travelers visited Orlando last year, and 1.6 million of those visitors came from overseas.

In 2021, Orlando’s international visitor demographic began to shift. Mexico took the top spot with 323,000 visitors, followed by Colombia with 297,000 tourists . Only 79,000 visitors came from the U.K., which used to be one of the region’s top markets.

The average visitor spends $615 per trip to Orlando. Overall, visitors spend a total of about $44 billion , which generates an economic impact of nearly $71 billion.

Economic boom: Walt Disney World’s $40B impact on Florida

Study reveals disney’s contributions to jobs, economy, business.

Landon McReynolds , Producer

BAY LAKE, Fla. – Oxford Economics published a new study Tuesday that shows Walt Disney World Resort generating $40 billion in economic impact across Florida in fiscal year 2022.

The comprehensive analysis (read report at bottom of this story) unveils the resourceful contributions of Disney, ranging from job creation to tax revenue, and highlights its critical role in shaping the economic landscape of the Sunshine State.

The study looked at results prior to the Reedy Creek Improvement District, established in 1967, becoming the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District with the appointment of a new board.

The study showcases Disney’s extensive reach, fostering a major economic engine that extends far beyond its Central Florida theme parks.

With a total statewide economic impact of $40.3 billion, the research group said Disney played a crucial role in supporting 263,000 direct and indirect jobs—equivalent to 1 in every 32 jobs in the state. Researchers said Disney’s direct workforce of 82,000 employees across the state translates into a significant ripple effect, supporting an additional 1.7 jobs for every on-site position within Florida.

The group found that without Disney’s statewide job impact, Florida’s unemployment rate would surge from 3% to a 5.4%, positioning the state as one of the nation’s highest in unemployment.

“I am incredibly proud of how Disney has created meaningful change and benefitted people’s lives in Florida for generations, not just in establishing our area’s theme park industry, but also in how we have worked with other sectors across the state to do the same,” said Jeff Vahle, President, Walt Disney World Resort. “The numbers speak for themselves on why Disney is so important to fueling jobs, the economy and tourism throughout our region, and the future investments we’re looking to make will continue to provide even more opportunities for Floridians.”

Disney’s financial skill isn’t confined to job creation alone. It’s also benefited areas around Central Florida and beyond.

“Disney’s impact goes far beyond the gates of its theme parks and positively touches our lives in nearly every corner of our community. Disney not only pioneered Orlando’s theme park industry with its own investments over the last five decades, they also paved the way for others to invest in our city and help make it the tourism destination it is today. It’s been an honor working alongside Disney as they help continue to move Florida forward,” Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer said.

Oxford’s study revealed a substantial tax contribution of $6.6 billion, with $3.1 billion in annual state and local tax revenue generated by Disney, its guests, employees and third-party businesses.

Notably, 2,500 Florida-based small businesses are contracted to supply products and services to Disney World, forming a major part of the over 8,500 small businesses nationwide contracted by The Walt Disney Company.

“From Day 1, the experience and the relationship that Disney has offered us is better than anything I’ve ever seen. Our business has grown in the last three years by about 25 to 30%. We are pushing numbers that we never expected out of fast casual,” said James Petrakis, owner of The Polite Pig at Disney Springs.

Walt Disney World Resort, among the largest employers in Florida, boasts a massive economic impact as an international destination.

It drives benefits across the state economy through direct operations, robust supply chains, substantial tax payments, and the spending of guests within the hospitality, transportation and retail sectors.

In fiscal year 2022, Disney paid and collected a combined $1.1 billion in state and local taxes to Orange and Osceola counties and the state of Florida, as well as to the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District.

“My connection with Disney World runs deep having been a cast member myself in its opening years, and what remains true after all this time, is Disney’s immense and positive impact on its employees and our community at large. In serving this community as long as I have, I can confidently say that Disney’s contributions have resulted in the progress and prosperity of Florida and all who call it home,” Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings said.

The economic engine is not ending anytime soon.

Just last week, Walt Disney Company CEO Bob Iger said the company is developing plans to “turbocharge” and expand investment in its experiences segment business to nearly double capital expenditures over the course of approximately 10 years to roughly $60 billion.

This includes enhancing and investing in domestic and international parks and cruise line capacity.

Disney World’s revenue keeps slumping, new report shows

R evenue increased for Walt Disney Co.’s theme parks globally in the fourth quarter, but the numbers lagged at Walt Disney World , the entertainment giant reported Wednesday.

Disney’s experiences division, which includes theme parks, hotels, Disney Cruise Line and merchandise, saw an uptick in revenue of 13% for the quarter ending Sept. 30. Domestic parks earned $5.4 billion, up 7%, while earnings at international parks were up 55% to $1.7 billion.

The report said Disney World suffered “lower results” without offering specific numbers. They were attributed to lower guest spending because of a decrease in hotel room rates, the cost of the accelerated depreciation for Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, the two-night theme experience that was shuttered in September, as well as inflation.

The company’s third-quarter report also indicated a slump at Disney World and pointed to the flattening of attendance and softening in other Florida tourism markets.

Higher attendance and higher ticket prices fueled the growth at Disneyland, officials said.

“Parks and experiences overall remains a growth story, and we are managing our portfolio exceptionally well,” Disney CEO Robert Iger said during an analyst call Wednesday afternoon.

“Even in the case of Walt Disney World, where we have a tough comparison to the prior year, when you look at this year’s numbers compared to pre-pandemic levels in fiscal ‘19, we’ve seen growth in revenue and operating income of over 25% and 30% respectively over the last five years,” Iger said.

Interim Chief Financial Officer Kevin Lansberry said Disney World numbers were suffering in comparison with those from the resort’s 50th anniversary celebration, which ended April 1.

Disney World will have “a little bit of that lapping effect that will continue for a little bit as we go through Q1,” he said. “But as I look out at the other domestic businesses … Disneyland continues to look exceptionally strong, as does Disney Cruise Line. So bookings, all of those continue to be very, very strong going forward.

“We continue to be bullish on the long-term positioning of our experiences business,” Lansberry added. “We expect those investments to ramp up towards the back half of that 10-year period, with more gradual increases in the first few years,” he said.

Iger repeated his $60 billion plan to “turbocharge” growth for the theme parks at multiple locations.

In an interview with CNBC’s Julia Burstin, Iger said the long-term success of the parks played a part in those investments.

“When we looked ahead and how we’ll allocate capital … we decided that a great place to place our bets or our capital is in the business that’s delivered the best results,” he said.

Fourth-quarter revenue for Walt Disney Co. overall was $21.2 billion, a 5% year-to-year increase.

The company reported an increase of almost 7 million subscribers to its Disney+ streaming service. The addition of theatrical releases “Elemental,” “The Little Mermaid” and “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3” boosted the service, Iger said.
