Mad Tea Party
Mad Tea Party is the spinning teacups ride in Fantasyland. You climb into a giant teacup and whirl around at the Mad Hatter's party. Here you celebrate your unbirthday, with yourself as the guest of honour.
The concept
The ride is inspired by the Mad Hatter's tea party from the Disney animated film Alice in Wonderland. Just like in the film, you'll see bright colours and objects that are far too big. You spin beneath a canopy of colourful lanterns while cheerful, zany music plays.
The Experience
In the middle of each cup is a wheel. Turn it quickly and you'll spin faster and faster: hold on tight. If you'd rather keep things calm, simply leave the wheel alone. Whichever you choose, the cup also spins and swirls across the platform on its own. Laughter guaranteed.

Set your own speed
You control the spinning with the wheel in the middle of the cup. The harder you turn, the wilder the ride.
Prefer a gentle ride?
Then don't turn the wheel. Bear in mind that the cup still moves across the platform on its own.
Sensitive to spinning?
If you're prone to motion sickness, Disney advises against this ride. You're better off watching from the sidelines.
Visitor information
There is no minimum height. Children under 7 must be accompanied by someone aged 14 or over. If you're prone to motion sickness, Disney advises against the ride. Wheelchair users must transfer; a transfer vehicle is available. There is no Lightning Lane for this ride: everyone uses the standard queue.
A party in a cup
Mad Tea Party is short and cheerful. Take a look around after your ride: the snowy peak of the Matterhorn towers high above Fantasyland.
