Hi there, Kevin! I'm happy to welcome you to the most magical panel on Earth — planDisney! I love that you're planning to celebrate your birthday at my favorite place — it's the perfect way to make your day extra special. And how wonderful that Tinker Bell is your favorite! She's such a great reminder of the magic that comes with a little faith, trust, and pixie dust.
At this time, Tinker Bell is not currently offering character meet-and-greets. I know that's not the news you were hoping for, and I'm sorry to deliver this bibbidi bobbidi bummer. But don't worry — I have some fun ideas to help you include Tinker Bell in your plans!
You can spot Tinker Bell in the
Festival of Fantasy Parade, where she sits atop a beautifully decorated float — be sure to give her a wave! Tinker Bell is also part of the
Disney Fab 50 Character Collection at Magic Kingdom. True to her playful nature, her statue is cleverly placed near the Partners Statue in front of Cinderella Castle. Look up — she's positioned as if she's flying!
A fun way to add a touch of Tinker Bell to your photos is by asking a
Disney PhotoPass photographer for a
Magic Shot featuring Tinker Bell. It's a magical way to capture a special memory with a little help from everyone's favorite fairy. You can also catch a glimpse of her while soaring through
Peter Pan's Flight in Fantasyland. And to end your day on the most magical note, don't miss Tinker Bell flying high during the evening fireworks show,
Happily Ever After.
I'm not sure when you're visiting, Kevin, but if it's during the
EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival, you're in for a treat! You can find Tinker Bell's beautiful
character topiary at Tinker Bell's Fairy House Garden in the United Kingdom Pavilion — it's a delightful nod to her magical spirit!
Remember Kevin, "
Even miracles take a little time and a lot of magic." I'd suggest keeping an eye on your
My Disney Experience app before and during your visit for any character meet-and-greet updates. Just tap the location icon on your Home Screen, then scroll over to "Characters." This will give you a list of all available characters and their locations throughout Walt Disney World.
I'm wishing you a magical birthday celebration at the most magical place, Kevin! Please visit us again if we can help with any other planning questions!
Thinking Happy Thoughts!
