We Stumbled Upon an UNEXPECTED Meet and Greet in EPCOT

Okay, so we LOVE meeting characters in Disney World, right?

We’ll stand in line for HOURS to meet characters like Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, and more. We’ll even pay extra for meals that feature character experiences. But sometimes, we stumble upon a meet and greet that’s a little different, and we found one like that recently in EPCOT.

If you’ve ever visited the UK Pavilion at EPCOT, you’ve probably seen the many boxes of Twinings Tea for sale there, and perhaps, you’ve even bought some. Maybe you drink Twinings Tea at home. It’s one of the most beloved tea brands in the world, after all!

Well, today, July 15th, you can meet someone who helped MAKE THAT TEA. Yes, Stephen Twining, a 10th generation Twining family member, is available at the EPCOT pavilion to meet guests. You can literally meet someone from the famous Twining family. How cool, right? He’ll be available today, July 15th, until 6PM.

Meet an actual Twining!

In case you DO miss him, though, he will be back tomorrow, July 16th, to meet even more guests. You’ll need to be at the UK Pavilion sometime between noon to 6PM to catch him.

He’s at EPCOT for two days

He’s even signing tea accessories for guests. So if you’re looking for a meet and greet that’s a little more unique, here’s your chance to meet Stephen Twining. How fun! Disney World always has little surprises like this for guests, and we are here for it.
