What You Need To Know Before You Go

Wheelchairs & ECVs

ԡ’s online park map includes designated pathways for Wheelchairs and ECVs (electric conveyance vehicles). Due to the terrain of the park, guests using these devices must use the designated pathways and instructions given at the time of rental.

All Guests using wheelchairs and ECVs, whether personal or rented at ԡ, must follow all manufacturer’s operating guidelines and park rules.

ԡ also reserves the right to deny entry to any ECV or wheelchair deemed unsafe for use in the park. Only one Guest per ECV or wheelchair. No passenger carriers and/or trailers of any type may be attached to ECVs. Due to state fire codes, wheelchairs, ECVs, strollers, and other such devices may not be parked in the aisles. Guests who bring ECVs and manual wheelchairs into the theatre will be asked to remain in their mobility device. ECVs with sunshades are prohibited in all indoor theaters.A complete guide to using ECVs at ԡ can be found in our .

Standard wheelchairs and ECVs are available for rental to ԡ guests. ECVs may be reserved in advance onlineor by calling 417.336.7100.

Service Animals

ԡ welcomes trained service dogs, as currently defined under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The U.S. Department of Justice, under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), defines a service dog as a dog that has been individually trained to do work or perform tasks for an individual with a disability. All service animals must be under the owner’s control at all times. Owners are responsible for disposing of animal waste. Service animals are not permitted on most rides and must exit the loading area after the owner has boarded all attractions except Frisco Silver Dollar Steam Train, Grandfather’s Mansion, Marvel Cave, Half Dollar Holler Carousel, Treetop Trail Houses, Sand Play and the Swinging Bridge.

Hosts may not take responsibility for or provide care to any service animal. All animals that do not meet the definition of a service dog as defined under the ADA are prohibited from entering the park.

Start Your Visit at The Accessibility Center

Our front-line hosts are trained to provide all guests with an inclusive experience while visiting ԡ ԡ. However, we encourage those with special needs to visit the on-property Accessibility Center at the start of their visit. This center is conveniently located at the Guest Relations building, right at the park's entrance.

The Accessibility Center hosts can provide detailed information regarding rider requirements, accessibility entrances, wheelchair and ECV Rentals, service animals, and more.

The Accessibility Center hosts can also support you by customizing your Rides Guide, which will help direct you to the rides and activities in which you can participate safely. The Rides Guide safety information has been gathered to help assist you through your journey as you travel back in time. You have a great past ahead of you®!

Visit The Measuring Station

Guests may visit the measuring station, located in The Fire District at Station No.3 or Midtown Guest Services, to be officially measured and receive a height wristband. Parents will also receive helpful information about which attractions their child can ride with and without a companion. Guests will be measured as they present themselves at themeasuring station, from the ground to the top of the head. Guests unable to stand will be measured using a flexible measuring tape. All guests must remove or change out of backless shoes prior to being measured.

Please review the below sections for information on accessibility services available during your visit.

Accessible Entrances for Rides

All guests must meet the ride requirements in order to ride the attraction. Accessible entrances are available at each ride. Ride operators will inform you how to board each ride. Guests must leave their wheelchairs to board certain rides. Our ride personnel do not have the specialized training required to physically load or unload guests who need assistance. Please plan to visit the park with someone who can physically assist you when necessary.

In consideration of all guests waiting to ride, the ride attendant will assign a boarding time based on the current estimated wait time in the main queue and record that time on the ride admission policy form found at the back of this guide. If requesting a special seat (i.e., front or back seat on acoaster), please inform the ride attendant when handing them this guide. Due to the popularity of some seats, the wait time may be extended.

You are not required to wait at the access entrance but should return with your party (a maximum of 6 guests, including the disabled guest) at the assigned boarding time using the accessibility entrance. If there is no wait time in the main queue, your party will be asked to remain at the accessibility entrance and will be allowed to board after a brief wait. The guest with the disability must ride in order for the party to use this program.

More information about Accessible Entrances, including details for specific rides and our Disabled Access Boarding Program can be found in the Guidelines Applicable to All Attractions section of our .

Supervising Companion

When a rider needs assistance due to a disability or other special need, we ask that they be accompanied by a companion (at least 14 years of age) who meets all rider requirements. Only the companion necessary to assist during the ride experience and immediate family (a total of 6 guests, including the rider needing assistance) may enter using the accessibility entrance. All others in the party must use the main ride entrance. Companions are suggested to ride prior to the guest requiring assistance in order to make an informed decision on whether or not to ride.

Rides may close at times for maintenance or periods of inclement weather. In the event a ride needs to be evacuated (which could result from a mechanical problem, weather conditions, or power interruption), a guest may need to maneuver across catwalks, from the highest point of a ride, and up or down steep grades or steps. Prior to riding, you and/or an attractions team member should determine if companion assistance would be required in the event of an evacuation.

At indoor venues, only one companion will be permitted to accompany the guest with a disability.

More information about our supervising companion policy can be found in our .

Please ensure all artificial limbs are secure and will not become detached during the ride experience. For your safety, please disclose any amputations or artificial limbs to the ride attendant. Guests wearing casts or other restrictive devices may not be able to ride if they prohibit proper securing of the restraint device(s) or as directed by the manufacturer of the ride.
