Picking the Best Bag For The Disney Parks
A lot of picking “the best” will come down to personal preference. You may be all about the fanny pack (or bum bag for you Brits!) or you might be looking for crossbody bags or backpacks.
But we think there are some aspects that make a bag more desirable than others for a Disney trip.
Why wear a Loungefly backpack to Disney? It’s a great hands-free way to carry your small items around. If you’re bringing kids, you know hands-free is key!
Plus they are super stylish and fashionable, we promise. AND so very Disney!
What we look for in a Disney park bag include:
- Easy access to credit cards and park tickets
- Not too small not too big
- Fit a cell phone and extra cell battery
- Zipper pocket for security
- Roller coaster approved
- A little more room for ponchos or other items you’ll want to pack into your Disney park bag.
Finding the Best Disney Backpack
What does it take to make this list of the best backpacks for Disney?
The packs need to fit at minimum a cell phone, extra battery, chord, and credit cards with easy access.
Lipstick, lip balm, small sunscreen tube is a bonus.
Obviously, we’re looking for adjustable straps so we can wear them all day long and into the night.
And our Disney backpack list includes the Loungefly as the preferred Disney backpack.

Let’s pick our bags and go to Disney!

Loungefly mini backpacks are really good to bring to Disneyland. Small enough that they're easy to fit under your legs during the rides and surprisingly roomy. I manage to put all the basic items such as phone and wallet as well as a bottle of water and my camera!
