Checklist: 28 Movies You should Watch Before Going on a Disney Vacation
Do you want to have the most memorable, magical, and wondrous Disney Vacation ever? Well, it all starts long before you actually leave home or even start packing. My opinion- the most memorable Disney vacations are the most nostalgic ones… meaning you’ve prepared your whole life for this.
From Disneyland, to Walt Disney World, to Disney Cruises, and even watching Disney Plus shows on your couch at home- there is a certain nostalgia when watching Disney shows. There’s nothing quite like walking down Main Street USA in Disneyland, spotting your favorite characters greeting people, and listening to classic Disney songs while at the happiest place on earth. Even a lot of the attractions and different lands throughout the park are very nostalgic when having grown up watching various Disney movies. Knowing these movies and characters brings a whole new level of interaction and fun to your Disney vacations!
Here’s 28 movies that I recommend watching before your next Disney trip! I’ve listed these in order of their release dates, but it doesn’t matter what order you watch them! I have everything essential on this list- from classic Disney, to Pixar, to Marvel, to Star Wars, and more!
