My birthday is in 3 weeks. What do I need for my free park admission?

I registered my birthday online like 8 months ago, but never received anything to confirm it. Do I just show up with my license and I get in free?

Essentially, yes. At the Studios, at least, this is done at the ticket booth on the far right (when you are facing the park). The woman who was assisting me seemed put-out by the whole thing (she seemed very unhappy to be there). It was a very specific booth, though. I imagine it is similar at the other parks. Don't just get in any line, ask one of the CMs who are roving where to go.

Thanks. I wonder how long this line usually is.

A license, a passport, a school ID, two 2x3" current photographs, a long-form apostilled birth certificate, a notarized affidavit, a right thumbprint, and a DNA sample.

I registered my husband's birthday online at Disney.com, when the registration process was over it gave me a certificate with a barcode to print out which I did. When I got the confirmation email they sent me the very same thing so I did not even have to print anything out again. Now I have never been to the parks since this whole birthday thing started so I can't tell you where to go in the parks etc. however the certificate I printed out states that I must have that certificate with the barcode number. I don't know if that is REALLY a MUST or merely a suggestion. Good luck and Happy Birthday.

I also registered in advance, but most definately did not have a print-out with me. It isn't a requirement to pre-register. Your license (or any official document with you date of birth) should suffice.

Take ID with proof of birthday - such as a driver's license - and go to the "Will Call" window at any of the four parks. The Will Call window is the only one which processes the birthday freebies. You can NOT get the birthday offerings at Downtown Disney.

You can also pre-register and print up your certificate here: https://disneybirthday.delivery.net/reg.jsp?source=wdw

Makes the process a little faster since you'll be in the system, but if you don't have a printer, it's not required.
