IF you're planning a birthday trip to Disney World, you will be able to get some extra freebies throughout the day.
Tourists visiting the theme park on their birthday can collect a celebration badge from their hotel or guest relations desk, which will unlock the hidden extras.
According to Theme Park Tourist, Disney Characters around the park can easily identify guests who are wearing the badge and will offer extra interaction.
This can even include signed cards or happy birthday messages from some of the cast.
Free food can also be enjoyed throughout the park thanks to the birthday badge.
Club Cool, found in Future World at Disney's Epcot, offer a free slush drink in any flavour for the birthday guest.
While normal guests can have free Coca Cola samples, including weird flavours such as apricot and passion-fruit and kiwi and mango, one guest said on a forum that they were given two free slushies for being part of the "birthday squad".
Most restaurants will also give free desserts to those with the birthday badge, such as slices of cake or free cupcakes, and you can expect to be sung too as well.
