Hello Gordon! I'm glad you stopped by planDisney with your great question! Getting the chance to see some of our favorite characters in-person is one of the many magical moments that Guests have come to look forward to at the Walt Disney World Resort!
I am happy to share that Guests can still see characters throughout the Walt Disney World Resort! Characters appear at the Disney Parks in special cavalcades which magically pop up throughout the day! Characters can also be spotted at special places throughout the parks to wave to Guests from a safe distance. Given the
current need for health and safety of Guests and Cast Members, characters are not able to pose for pictures with Guests or give autographs. Guests can pose for photographs with characters in the background.
Gordon, as a bit of helpful magic I want to share that Guests can still receive "pre-autographed cards" while enjoying an exciting experience with characters at a few Disney Character Dining locations! For example, Chef Mickey and his pals will resume hosting character breakfasts at
Chef Mickey's beginning on December 16th! Guests can also look forward to having a souvenir from the "head chef." This special keepsake is an autographed card left at each table!
I also heard that Guests dining at
Be Our Guest Restaurant can request a "pre-autographed" card from the Master of the Castle - Beast himself!
Gordon, I hope this information is helpful as you plan your visit! Good luck securing those special "pre-autographed" cards!
Hakuna Matata! Jonathan G.
