Destination D23 stage

We’re still mourning the closure of Vanellope’s meet and greet spot at the Imagination Pavilion in EPCOT, but also still anxiously anticipating the arrival of Figment later this year, however, it seems we’ve got more characters to be excited for sooner rather than later!

While making an appearance at Destination D23 in Disney World, Josh D’Amoro took to the stage to announce exciting changes to the character meet and greet lineup. It was here that we learned of a new character making her way to several of the Disney parks. Asha from Disney’s upcoming animated feature film, Wish, will be making appearances soon at several parks.

While the new character meet and greet was only briefly mentioned, we do know that Asha will be available to meet with you in EPCOT, Disneyland, and Disneyland Paris soon. More details are sure to be released at a later time, but we’re excited to see some new faces in the parks to meet with soon!
