Hi there, Jacqueline!
Thanks for cooking up such a great question for us at planDisney! Getting to say 'hi' to my favorite characters (over and over again) is one of my favorite aspects of a vacation to
The Most Magical Place on Earth. By the end of our most recent trip to
Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa, I'd visited with Goofy and Donald Duck so frequently they began to identify me from a distance by my signature bucket hat gifted by a sweet planDisney pal,
Melissa. All of this is my way of saying that I'd absolutely love to help you make memories with a beloved Disney character.
I've done a bit of digging, Jacqueline, and unfortunately, it does not appear that Remy is currently meeting guests at Walt Disney World Resort. My tiny Mouseketeer niece would also love to give Remy a big hug, so one can hope he's simply too busy developing his next delicious menu and will return to meet his adoring fans once it is complete. If meeting the little chef is your heart's desire, I most recently said hello at
runDisney's Wine & Dine Half Marathon Weekend as he does occasionally make appearances at special events. As a temporary placeholder for the rodent-sized hole in your life, I suggest taking part in
Remy's Ratatouille Hide & Squeak scavenger hunt during the
EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival where you will be on the lookout for tiny Remy statues throughout the theme park. My husband and I always turn this into a competition with the winner getting to pick our festival menu.
Don't lose heart, Jaqueline. Character meet and greets are always subject to change, so I would recommend keeping an eye on the character list in the
My Disney Experience mobile app during your visit. I wouldn't be too hopeful, but you never know what pixie dust your vacation might hold.
Although I'm sure this is not what you were hoping to hear, I do hope it was helpful. Feel free to
stop back by with any additional questions that arise!
Cheers to 2024,
Lizzie
