What If You Can’t Sign The Waiver Digitally?

The runDisney expo has plenty of pre-printed waivers for you to sign.

There are adult and minor waivers, so make sure you sign the appropriate one.

For Bib Pickup, Screen Shot Expo Pass

While still logged in, go to your registration section of your dashboard.

Click on your current event, and choose Get Your Check-In Pass.

When you click on the blue box, you’ll get the pass below.

It will have your name, age, DOB, and home location on the pass.

Your bib number and shirt size are also listed. This is where you find out what number you’ll be running in for the race.

This information is all used by the folks at the expo to find your bib and hand it over.

If you have the Expo Pass and a signed waiver, you can move on to the next step.

(Finally!) Picking Up Your Bib At runDisney’s Expo

Head over to the race that you are running.

There are long booths with bib numbers overhead; join the line that corresponds to your bib number which is found on the Expo Pass.

Show your photo ID and your Expo Pass, and you’ll be good to go!

If you have a paper waiver, they will accept it at this location as well.

The volunteer or staff member will hand over your bib, ask you to sign that you accepted it, and you’ll be on your way to the next step: picking up your race t-shirt (see below).

But I Don’t Have An Expo Pass Or A Registration Or a Waiver… HELP!

With IT and Disney, you never know what you’re going to get!

Thankfully, runDisney is aware of the issues and has put together an Expo Pass Check-In team to help straighten everyone out.

The good news is that it was simple.

The bad news is that you may be in line with a lot of other folks, depending on when you arrive at the expo.

Visit this booth to get the Expo Pass concerns addressed.

We had a runner who needed to pick up her bib at the runDisney expo but couldn’t find her registration anywhere in her account.

The fix was fairly fast and simple.

runDisney looked her up, saw there were 2 accounts created for her, merged them together, and voila! She had access to her digital waiver and then her expo pass.

The whole process took about 5 minutes to sort through.

You have one more stop on your runDisney Expo journey that is required.

You’ll need to head to the Visa Athletic Center to pick up your official race t-shirt and gear check bag.

Inside this building, you’ll find anything a runner may need!

Costume shirts or skirts? Yes.

Aftershokz headphones? Yes.

Shoes, socks, fuel, glide: yes, yes, yes and yes.

Head there, pick up your appropriate shirt and you’ll also be given a bag and safety pins as well.

There is also a t-shirt exchange in case the size you originally chose at registration no longer works!

And NOW you are ready to runDisney!

    1. Unfortunately, they do require the person to pick up their own bib. She should be able to do emergency bib pick up on the morning of the race if she shows up early and brings her ID!

  1. This was awesome, thanks! I’ve heard there was a queue now to sign up for the runDisney merch stuff, but hadn’t heard details about how it works. This will help a lot! Appreciate the info!
