Hi, Elizabeth! Welcome to planDisney!
Gawrsh, your Walt Disney World Resort vacation is right around the corner! It sure sounds like you're excited to see some of your Disney pals. While character experiences in the theme parks are a bit different right now, Mickey and his friends are still on hand to welcome their extra-special Guests.
As Disney continues implementing
safety protocols for Guests and Cast Members, character meet-and-greets and autograph signings are still on pause for the moment. But grab your
Minnie ears and keep your camera handy, because some of our favorite friends will appear in
character cavalcades and
flotillas in each of the theme parks! It's a perfect opportunity for a wave and a safely distanced selfie. Plus, be on the lookout for spontaneous sightings as you're exploring the parks. You never know when a silly old bear might be chasing butterflies on the grass!
Elizabeth, while we can't hug our beloved Disney characters right now, you can always bring a hug home with you! I adore the sweet new
Disney nuiMOs plush characters available on the shopDisney website and in the theme parks. They're the cutest little things, and you can even get extra outfits for them. We got my son a Donald Duck nuiMO a few weeks ago, and we've had so much fun playing with him!
I hope this helps you have fun looking for your favorite characters in the theme parks, Elizabeth. Please come see us again if you have any more questions!
Keep Disney Dreaming,
Kathy K.
