Welcome to planDisney, Zoe!
I’m answering your question on the week of Día de los Muertos, and it is my wish that one day your dream of seeing Ernesto de la Cruz at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida comes true. Like this villain we love to hate (and hate to love) says in
Coco, “The feeling, so close, you can reach out and touch it.” As a Florida resident, seeing him sing and dance on stage at Disneyland Resort’s
Oogie Boogie Bash gives me a bit of the “F.O.M.O.” (Fear of Missing Out) feels.
You’re a planner like I am, and I love that you’re already creating a game plan about how to meet all of our
Coco friends at the Disney Parks. Miguel likes to wave to his fans during the
Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade at Magic Kingdom Park. And at EPCOT, near the Mexico Pavilion, listen out for the mesmerizing Mariachi Cobre. They may just sing to you in the style of Ernesto de la Cruz!
AN EXTRA GEM: By the way, Ernesto de la Cruz may have only been on the West Coast these past couple of years; however, don’t lose hope. This year, at
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, Minnie Mouse, Daisy Duck, and Clarabelle Cow as the Sanderson Sisters made the journey from Disneyland to appear in Mickey’s Boo-to-You Halloween Parade. So, you never know who could be announced each year. I recommend bookmarking the
Disney Parks Blog to be among the first to learn about the new offerings at all of the Disney Parks.
“Remember me!” Zoe, if you need any suggestions about how to make the most out of your 2024 Disney vacations, please
give us a shout here at planDisney.
Magic always,
LeAndra
