    My son is OBSESSED with the Beast. Is there any time/place that he is able to meet the Beast? I know the princes come out with the princesses at Epcot on Valentines Day- but are there other opportunities? Eating at Be Our Guest won’t cut it (needs a hug)

    Bonjour, Amira! 

    It is with deepest pride, and greatest pleasure, that we welcome you to planDisney! Pull up a chair, and be our guest! 

    I love that your son loves Beast! Not only is he an incredible on-screen character, he is also a major presence in real life! I hope that he is able to get his fix of Beast during your next trip to The Most Magical Place on Earth!

    While you can see Beast on a parade float during Festival of Fantasy and Disney Starlight, roaming periodically through his castle while you dine at Be Our Guest, and on stage for Beauty and the Beast - Live on Stage, there is no meet-and-greet currently available. I am so sorry that this is not the news you were wanting to hear. I completely sympathize with your son’s desire to give his favorite character a hug! 

    As things are ever-changing at the theme parks, I do highly recommend that you ask a Cast Member about any possibility of meeting Beast. I’ll cross my fingers for you and your son! 


    If you have any additional questions, feel free to visit us again at planDisney! 

    See ya real soon,
    Allyn

Hello! I am Allyn, your personal planDisney companion! I’ve enjoyed most of my life in the heart of Wyoming but am currently living my fairy tale as a wife, mom, yoga instructor, and fine jewelry designer in central Florida! When I’m not galavanting around the Disney theme parks, you’ll probably find me reading a good book, outside playing with my family, or learning to do something new. I truly believe that dreams come true, and I look forward to sharing that magic with you!
