Hi Shelby!
In a few months, you will be in
Walt Disney World in sight of Cinderella Castle ready to enjoy Dole Whips, fly with Peter Pan, and cruise with yo-ho-ho singing pirates!
Character encounters are gradually becoming more in person and up close, but autographs from our favorite friends have not yet returned. During some character meals, you will receive an autographed card as a souvenir. Modified meet and greets are just now returning. At
Princess Fairytale Hall and the
Town Square Theater in
Magic Kingdom, you can have some one-on-one time with Mickey or Cinderella and a fellow princess.
Disney's Hollywood Studios is offering Guests the chance to meet Minnie at
Red Carpet Dreams and Disney Junior characters in
Animation Courtyard. No hugs or autographs, but you can spend a minute with the characters and snap a socially distanced photo. Of course, as you noted, this could change by the time you arrive.
Character Cavalcades and character appearances in the parks are held throughout the day. Princesses often appear in their home countries in
Epcot's World Showcase and on my last trip, I saw Minnie and Mickey and friends dancing atop the Main Street Train Station!
Wishing you a wonderful visit to see Mickey!
Elisabeth
