A Character Meet-and-Greet Has Finally RETURNED to Magic Kingdom

A fan-favorite meet-and-greet has FINALLY returned to Magic Kingdom, so come along with us to check it out!

Tomorrowland

Lately, guests at Disney World have been very excited about the new meet-and-greet over in Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Moana has made her debut in that park, and the line to meet her can be HOURS long. (We recommend rope-dropping that attraction if you’re hoping to meet her without waiting too long.) But now, there’s a different character to get excited about over in Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom.

Buzz has been present in this land for a while now, but he’s usually up on the stage in Tomorrowland, greeting guests from a distance.

Now, the full meet-and-greet is back. You can go up to Buzz, say hello, ask for an autograph, and take some photos. The meet-and-greet is located back by Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin, underneath part of the PeopleMover.

Hi, Buzz!

When we stopped by, there were PhotoPass photographers there to take your picture.

So after you take a spin on the Buzz Lightyear ride (and become a galactic hero, of course), make sure you stop by to say hello to the space ranger himself!

Come say hello!
