Hey there, hi there, ho there, Diana! You're as welcome as can be here at the Disney Parks Moms Panel! Let's say hello to some of our favorite Disney pals at the Walt Disney World Resort!
Do you want to be part of Ariel's world? Maybe you'd like to consult Baymax, your personal healthcare companion? Or do you just need a hug from the big cheese himself, Mickey Mouse? I know I could always use one of those! So many of the Disney characters we love (and some we love to hate!) are just around the river bend at Walt Disney World - and it's easy to find exactly where your friends are greeting Guests every day!
On your computer, go
WaltDisneyWorld.com and look for the tab at the top that says "Things to Do." Then go to "
Character Experiences," and
voila! You'll find a list of character greetings for the day. There are some filters available so you can narrow down things like Theme Parks and character types ("Mickey and Friends" if you're looking for Mickey Mouse, for example).
When you're in the Parks, just go to your
My Disney Experience app and click on the map. Then click on the dropdown menu on the top and select "Characters." You can see the character greeting locations marked by a Mickey head on the map, or click "Show List" to see it as a listing of character meet opportunities.
You can also pick up a printed Times Guide in the Theme Parks for a listing of that day's character appearances.
I hope this helps you find the Disney pals you're looking for, Diana! Please come back and see us again if you have any more questions - and give Mickey a hug for me!
Keep Disney Dreaming,
Kathy K.
