Hi there, Marian!
Thank you for sending your question to planDisney. Meeting different Disney Characters is part of the fun when vacationing at Disneyland Resort. I especially love seeing some of my favorite Disney Characters wander through
Fantasyland, such as Mary Poppins, Peter Pan, and even Gaston!
I just checked the Disneyland website, and it does not look like Winnie the Pooh is meeting Guests in
Critter Country at this time. I am sorry! Critter Country is currently closed while some exciting enhancements are made to the area. You can find up-to-date refurbishment information on the
Critter Country update page. In the meantime, I have met some of Pooh's friends when enjoying
“Minnie & Friends – Breakfast in the Park" at Plaza Inn in the past. Although we never know which Disney Characters will stop by Plaza Inn during our meal, it is always a fun experience. The all-you-care-to-enjoy breakfast is also a delicious start to the morning! Dining reservations can be made up to 60 days in advance on the Disneyland Resort website.
Did you know
Pixar Fest is currently happening at Disneyland Resort until August 4, 2024? This friendship celebration is filled with tasty treats, special experiences, and more! I especially enjoy the
Together Forever - A Pixar Nighttime Spectacular performance, as well as the
Better Together: A Pixar Pals Celebration! parade. Both are delightful!
Marian, I am sorry this was not the news you are looking for. I hope Winnie the Pooh takes a break from his honey pot and arrives just in time for your visit!
Magic Happens!
Jen
