Hi there, Vanessa!
Now that it is officially summer, you've chosen the
practically perfect time to stop by planDisney to discuss
Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park, so let's dive right in!
When I consider the reasons Typhoon Lagoon is a must-do for me, the
surf pool,
water slides, and
lazy river all come to mind, but unfortunately, Vanessa, regular character interactions are not on the list. This isn't because I don't love a quality character hug (because I do!), but because characters typically only visit Walt Disney World's water parks during special ticketed events such as
H20 Glow After Hours.
Of course, while I can't guarantee that characters will appear at Typhoon Lagoon, I also can't guarantee that they won't. That's the beauty of Disney magic. I was recently checking out of Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge when Chip, Dale, and Daisy suddenly appeared in the lobby. Unscheduled (pixie-dusted) appearances have become more common lately, so while it is unlikely that you will see characters during your visit to Typhoon Lagoon, I suggest keeping your eyes peeled and speaking with a Cast Member once you arrive to see if they have any insider knowledge about the day's schedule.
Don't forget that your My Disney Experience app helpfully features a list of all scheduled character appearances each day that you can easily sort by location. While this doesn't include those pixie-dusted appearances, it is always a great place to start when you're trying to track down your favorites.
I hope this was helpful, Vanessa, and that your day at Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park is overflowing with Disney magic. As always, feel free to
stop back by with any other questions you may have. I'm always happy to help!
Thinking Happy Thoughts,
Lizzie
