    Hello there I’m just wondering if Merida will be available as a meet and greet later this month at Disneyland?

    Hey there, hi there, Valentina! Welcome to planDisney, where you have a friend in us.  We are here for all your planning questions, big or small. 

    I hope you have most of your planning complete, and now you are just counting down the days of your arrival. You will get the best of both worlds, getting to see some of the 70th Celebration entertainment, as well as all of the Halloween Time happenings too! As a curly girl myself, I love any chance to get a glimpse of that iconic red curly hair on Merida. Recently, she has been spotted in Fantasyland for Pixar Pals Playtime Party, but sadly, I think that is coming to a close this week. Before this event, I had found her from time to time in the "it's a small world" Esplanade area. There, you usually find a few princesses and other beloved characters showing up in this area throughout the day.

    On the day of your visit, I recommend opening up the Disneyland app and tapping on the "Characters" option above the map feature. Then, at the bottom right of the map, you can tap on "Show List". This will allow you to scroll down to find Merida and hope that it shows you some showtimes and locations for her that day. 

    Valentina, I hope you get to see your girl! Be sure to come back and visit us again if you have any other questions!
