Disney still recommends that unvaccinated guests continue to mask while indoors, but they won’t be checking or verifying vaccination status.
"It is recommended Guests who are not fully vaccinated continue wearing face coverings in all indoor locations, including indoor attractions and theaters and on enclosed transportation."

Combined with the return of traditional character meet and greets this week, Walt Disney World is almost completely back to normal. Now we eagerly await the return of the absent entertainment, including Fantasmic!, Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular, and more.
