Greetings, Angela, and welcome to planDisney! Your
Walt Disney World Resort visit is just around the riverbend, and it sounds like you have a Pocahontas fan in your tribe. My son loved this adventurous and brave princess when he was young, and we even met her on opening day at
Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park. That's a core memory, for sure! Let's look at where you can find her on your upcoming trip.
You can meet Pocahontas to chat and take photos at
The Oasis at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park. Look for her to the right just past the park entrance. She takes breaks to tend to important tribal business and care for her animal friends but typically meets guests throughout the day. My tip is to stop by The Oasis to check for a schedule when you arrive so you can plan the best time to have an audience with this nature-loving character.
While I saw Pocahontas in the
Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade a few months ago at Magic Kingdom Park, I've heard she's rarely in that high-energy parade. But if you're at Disney's Hollywood Studios, odds are you'll catch a glimpse of the dark-haired maiden in the
Fantasmic! nighttime musical.
Like we can't step in the same river twice, characters are always subject to change. I recommend watching your
My Disney Experience mobile app for the latest information. Tap the pin icon at the bottom of the screen and select "Characters" from the dropdown menu at the top. Filter by location, and I like to tap "Show List" in the upper right to see characters by name. You can choose a character for more information about greeting times and location.
Angela, I'm choosing the smoothest course for your adventure beyond the shore! Please stop by
planDisney anytime.
Magic awaits,
Elaine
