Hi there, Kerry! Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel and asking your question.
Meeting friends from Toy Story has been a big hit with my daughter as well. She’s met Woody, Buzz, and Jessie all around the Disneyland Resort in years past, but now that Pixar Pier is open in Disney California Adventure Park, this has become the
hub to meet these characters and many other Pixar pals. I know that Woody has still been greeting Guests in Frontierland, but lately I’ve noticed that Jessie is most commonly found on the Toy Story Boardwalk on Pixar Pier. It’s probably because she’s working hard on getting
Jessie’s Critter Carousel ready for its big debut next year.
When you are in the parks, be sure to use the
Disneyland app to look up exact times and locations to meet Jessie and many other characters. You can use the map view to find characters in a specific area or toggle to the list view to see an alphabetical listing of all characters meeting that day. You can also ask a Cast Member that is wearing an “Ask Me About Characters” pin to see if they know when and where Jessie will be making appearances.
I hope this helps. Have a splendid time at the Happiest Place on Earth!
