    What Pixar character can I meet. I’m a big fan of Toy Story monsters Inc and cars. I’m going in May

    Hiya, Michael!

    Welcome back to planDisney! The character meet & greets at the Disneyland Resort truly bring the magic to the park experience. There are plenty of Pixar characters that you can meet!

    You will find most of our Pixar pals throughout Disney California Adventure park. Here are some of the characters you can meet:
    • Alberto and Luca from Luca
    • Anger and Sadness from Inside Out
    • Buzz Lightyear, Woody, and Jessie from Toy Story
    • Mr. and Mrs. Incredible from The Incredibles
    As for our friends from the movie Cars, you may find Lightning McQueen or Mater cruising through Cars Land throughout your park day. There are no dedicated meet & greets for Mike and Sulley from Monsters, Inc. at this time. However, you can embark on a mission with them on Mike & Sulley to the Rescue!.

    Bonus Tip: Things can change, so keep an eye on the Disneyland mobile app for specific availability and locations of each character.

    Michael, I hope this helps and that you get to meet one of your favorite pals during your upcoming vacation to Disneyland!

    Sending you faith, trust, and pixie dust,
