Walt Disney World Resort hotels are beginning to replace temporary QR-code displays for recreation schedules with permanent signs, according to Inside the Magic. The signs let hotel guests scan for the current list of resort activities on their phones.
Permanent installations have been reported at Disney’s Pop Century Resort, Disney’s Art of Animation Resort and Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort, all along the Disney Skyliner route. The change follows a September shift away from printed recreation schedules, which were initially replaced with QR codes displayed on movable signs and sandwich boards.
At Pop Century and Art of Animation, the new signs have been placed in planters, while Pop Century also has a sign in its lobby. Caribbean Beach has signs in a flower bed and near the lobby. The displays are intended to provide a fixed location for guests to find the schedule while allowing Disney to update activity information without reprinting posted flyers.
Disney’s Riviera Resort also has a QR-code schedule sign, though Inside the Magic reported that its black-framed display still appeared temporary. The rollout therefore does not appear to be complete across all Walt Disney World hotels.

Resort recreation schedules can include activities for guests during time away from the parks, and the digital format can reflect changes to programming. Guests at the affected hotels can look near lobbies and landscaped areas for the signs and scan again during a stay if activities have changed.
