    I would contact the recruiters and ask them, but I am sure there was a lady around your age at the interview I went to. I think you should definitely contact them and ask, I dont really see why age should stop you from doing something you've always wanted to do. Good luck!! :)

    Yes Dazzling

    I think you should tell the recruiter about ur age.
    See I also remember a lady about 45 in the interview
    for Mexico.

    I dont think there's anything wrong with that

    Robb :D

    I don't think the age matters for Disney, they're not allowed to discriminate in any way. It's just that most of the applicants are young ;) I know that there were some people around your age working in the german pavilion when I was there last time :)

    Dudes... I'm gonna still be workin' for Disney when I'm ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTY ONE!!! You are NEVER, NEVER, NEVER!!!! too old to work for disney. Just as you are never too old to be interested in Disney. Or watch Disney films... THEY ARE A COMPANY FOR FAMILIES!!!
    I say if it's something you want to do... Remove the option of NOT doing it... and DO IT!!!!!!!!!

    Cya there :p

    Yes, exactly. Disney is a place "Where Dreams Come true" and that is for anyone and everyone.
    If you want to work for Disney then work for Disney, do not let your age stop you or prevent you from applying.

    As everyone else has said - age should not be an issue. I am 29 and I thought I was too old to apply as everyone else seemed to be around 18-22 but I thought sod it why not its somthing I have always wanted to do.

    You Go for it - good luck "golden Oldie" only joking.....

    Butlins was defo good in it's day, but its shocking now, i went last year with my fella's family and ended up in the club Jumpin Jacks (they do the best slush puppie cocktail shots!) a huge fight broke out and about 6 ppl got arrested!!
    It's not the sort of thing you wana see at Butlins!! It just shatters that whole clean cut image, now you wouldn't see that at Disney would you!!
