Welcome to planDisney, Renee! It sounds like you're suiting
Up for an adventure at the Most Magical Place on Earth and hoping to meet with some friends during your vacation! I'm happy to chat with you today about
character experiences and help you find a few of your pals that I know will be excited to meet you!
Renee, while character experiences are subject to change, you can currently find a few characters from the movie
Up at
Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park, including Dug and Russell, who regularly meet with guests at their clubhouse in Discovery Island. This fun meet-and-greet offers guests a chance to connect with Russell and his pal Dug to share stories of exploring the wilderness and chasing squirrels. Guests can also participate in the
Wilderness Explorers activities throughout Animal Kingdom Theme Park to earn badges and complete challenges to earn the distinction of being an official Wilderness Explorer, just like Russell!
Another character that is often seen roaming throughout Animal Kingdom is Kevin from
Up, who likes to interact with guests as he makes his way throughout the park! He's always "up" for a selfie, so if you happen to cross paths with him, be sure to grab your camera to capture the magical moment!
Renee, I hope this helps, and I hope you'll be able to capture some memories with these special characters during your visit! If you have any other questions we can help with as you finalize your plans and count down the final days to your trip, come see us again here at
planDisney!
Adventure is out there,
Alison
