Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel Jody ~
Cruz Ramirez is one of my new favorite Pixar characters. She has the best lines and totally cracks me up. Currently,
Cruz Ramirez is appearing at Pixar Place in Disney's Hollywood Studios at the Walt Disney World Resort. When I was there last weekend, only Cruz was appearing and Lightning McQueen was not there.
Right now, they haven't announced how long Cruz Ramirez will be appearing at Disney's Hollywood Studios but hopefully she and Lightning McQueen will be appearing during your visit. I would suggest checking the
My Disney Experience mobile app closer to your trip to see if Cruz Ramirez and Lightning McQueen are appearing. There was a lot of "Car 3" merchandise available at a kiosk right across the street from Cruz Ramirez and throughout the Walt Disney World Resort merchandise locations.
Disney's Hollywood Studios is undergoing some major changes right now. It is all very exciting and I can't wait for what is coming. Having said that, keep in mind that things can change from day to day. Keep an eye online for the daily schedules and on the
Disney Parks Blog for the latest news.
If you are a really big "Cars" fan, think about staying at
Disney's Art of Animation Resort. There are "Cars" themed rooms, a Cozy Cone Pool, and life size characters where you can pose for pictures. What a great way to get revved up for a magical day!
Please feel free to visit us with all of your planning questions. We are hEAR for you!
Wishing you minnie magical memories :-) Allison V.
