Hey there, Matthew! Thanks for writing into planDisney. I'm so glad that I've found a fellow Zootopia fan! I love the movie's motto that anyone can be anything, and I was ecstatic when I first heard that Imagineers were developing a Zootopia-themed land at Shanghai Disneyland Resort. Hopefully, we will see something similar eventually at one of our domestic US parks, or maybe we can board a Zootopia Express heading overseas?!
In the meantime, you can meet the dynamic duo of officer Judy Hopps and her sly fox friend Nick Wilde in the Pacific Wharf area of
Disney California Adventure Park on San Francisco Street (along the side of The Little Mermaid – Ariel's Undersea Adventure). When I spoke with Guest Services, they confirmed that they are meeting daily from 11:30 AM-6:30 PM; however, character schedules are always subject to change. If you happen to see Nick, ask him if you can help him peddle his "pawpsicles!" You can use the
Disneyland Mobile app to help you
locate other characters around the parks.
Did you know that Nick and Judy Disney nuiMOs plushes have arrived at Disneyland Resort? Hop on over to
World of Disney in the Downtown Disney District, or you can find them on
shopDisney.com. These would be the perfect accessories for your meet and greet!
I hope you have a wild time on your vacation, Matthew! Please stop by and see us again real soon!
