When Disney World brought back traditional character meet and greets, we were THRILLED to finally be able to hug, high-five, and get autographs once again.
But, not every character meet and greet came back at once, as Disney is rolling them out in phases. Disney just announced that even MORE characters are coming back to the parks, and we’re sharing everything you need to know!
Get ready to get silly, because character meet and greets are returning to Pete’s Silly Sideshow in Magic Kingdom! This circus-themed experience featured Minnie, Daisy, Donald, and Goofy as the Great Goofini.
Details haven’t been shared on when exactly this spot will reopen or if all four characters from Pete’s Silly Sideshow will be at this location, but Disney said we can expect it in the coming months — we’ll keep an eye out for more news.
Those aren’t the only characters potentially returning to Magic Kingdom either — on July 10th, guests can meet and greet Peter Pan and Snow White in Fantasyland! Disney also shared that Aladdin, Jasmine, Merida, Pooh, and Tigger will also be returning for meet and greets!
Over in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, guests will once again be able to play with their favorite Toy Story toys, and get ready for the prehistoric party of a lifetime at Donald’s Dino-Bash! This Animal Kingdom meet and greet has featured Donald Duck and some of his friends in the past, and we’re so excited to learn that it’s returning.
Disney shared that we can expect these character experiences to roll out “in the coming months,” so be sure to stay tuned to DFB for the latest news!
