An email went out to registrants of the runDisney 2023 Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon to explain the changes to the costume policy for race participants.

The new updates to the policy are as follows:

  • Layered costumes that could conceal prohibited items are not permitted.
  • Costume props including, without limitation, those that surround the entire body, are inflatable, or physically connect multiple participants to each other are not permitted.
  • Foam swords and all-plastic lightsabers may be permitted, however, they may not exceed 36″ in length.

The full policy can be found on the runDisney website.
