    Are the characters dressed up in costumes during the day?

    Welcome to planDisney, Tiana!

    Can you believe that your Walt Disney World Resort vacation begins in just a few days? You're almost there!

    Even though I'm a more mature Mouskeeteer, character meet and greets are one of my favorite aspects of a visit to The Most Magical Place on Earth, and there are few things more magical than seeing beloved characters in their seasonal finest. Although Magic Kingdom Park's costumed character characters appear exclusively at Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, I'm happy to share that Disney's Hollywood Studios is home to Hollywood & Vine where Minnie is hauntingly happy to host a Halloween-inspired lunch and dinner featuring some of her best character pals in costume! You'll also find Chip 'n' Dale dressed as adorable (I mean fearsome) chipmunk-o-sauruses in Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park's DinoLand U.S.A. no matter the season! 

    While they're not characters in disguise, my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed participating in Pluto's Pumpkin Pursuit this past weekend. This fun scavenger hunt involves searching for pumpkins painted in the likeness of familiar Disney faces scattered throughout EPCOT. The maps can be purchased a several merchandise locations throughout the theme park and can be redeemed for a small prize upon completion! 

    Thanks for stopping by planDisney with your question, Tiana! I hope this was helpful. If you have any additional questions about your upcoming visit, feel free to come see us again. We're always happy to help!
