    Love the Panel! We changed our Itinerary to surprise our sons 8&4 w/Star Wars wknd on 5/27. Will be our 1st time for this event, any tips? Is the Beast still in France & Genie from Aladdin anywhere for autographs? 55 days & counting:) THANKS!

    Hi Melinda!  I am so happy to hear that you find our panel helpful and that you have returned for further assistance!



    Star Wars Weekends at Hollywood Studios are packed full of intergalactic fun for the whole family, so you've chosen a stellar time to visit!  Be sure to grab a special edition Times Guide upon entering Hollywood Studios which will contain up to date information on the special events and character meet and greets taking place around the park.  "Must Sees" during this special weekend are the Star Wars Motorcade Parade and Hyperspace Hoopla.  The Times Guide should have the show and parade times for these events as well!



    Yes, Beast still greets guests alongside Belle in Epcot's France Pavilion near the World SHowcase Lagoon.  He usually shows up about 15 minutes after Belle, so if you don't see him right away, fear not...he's coming!



    Unfortunately, Genie is no longer participating in guest meet and greets. He currently only appears inparades...my favorite being the Move It!  Shake It! Celebrate It! Street Party at the Magic Kingdom during which he speaks to guests from atop a huge gift-box shaped float!



    Best Wishes,
