Law enforcement responded to not one but two separate fire alerts at Disney Springs on Sunday, just a few hours apart, and with little explanation from Walt Disney World Resort either time.
First Call Comes Before Dawn
The first report landed shortly after 4:00 a.m. on Sunday, March 15, well before Disney Springs opened its doors to guests for the day. Scanner monitoring account @WDWActiveCrime flagged the response on X (formerly known as Twitter):

The Google Maps pin attached to the post placed the incident near the center of Disney Springs, though that detail carries the usual caveat: emergency calls at Walt Disney World Resort are routinely logged at centralized coordinates rather than the precise location of an incident, so the pin shouldn't be read as an exact address.
Walt Disney World Resort offered no public statement on the early morning call. Whatever occurred overnight, it left no visible mark on the guest experience; Disney Springs opened on schedule Sunday with no reported closures or disruptions.
Second Alert at Disney Springs
The situation repeated itself hours later. Shortly after 10:30 a.m., @WDWActiveCrime posted a second fire alert at the same location:
🔥 Fire Alert – 03/15/26 10:32 am
🔥: Fire at 📍: Disney Springs

Walt Disney World Resort again failed to comment publicly on the incident, and no property damage has been confirmed from either call. The My Disney Experience app showed everything at Disney Springs operating normally following both alerts, with no closures or other impacts listed.
What Guests Should Know
Two fire calls in one morning are worth noting, but neither appears to have disrupted the guest experience in any meaningful way. Visitors heading to Disney Springs on Sunday should expect normal operations throughout the complex. As always, anyone who encounters law enforcement activity or restricted areas during a Disney Parks visit should follow all instructions from cast members and authorities on the scene.
