If you’re traveling to EPCOT soon, be prepared for quite a few changes!
From the addition of Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana and the Figment meet and greet to the completion of the construction on World Celebration…the park is a completely different place than it was even just a year ago! And now, we’ve got news about another character meet and greet in EPCOT.
Ever since the pandemic, Winnie the Pooh has been hanging out near the Imagination Pavilion in the big field area. Here, you can interact with him from a distance as he tries to catch butterflies, do yoga, or just generally goof off like the silly ol’ bear he is.
But now, if you want to spend some quality time with Pooh, you’ll need to head to the UK Pavilion! The Winnie the Pooh meet and greet has officially moved back to its original home — in Christopher Robin’s room.

Pooh has moved back to his old spot!
Here’s a look at all the times Pooh will be available to meet guests in EPCOT. Note that meet and greet times may change, so check the My Disney Experience app before you visit.

We’re so excited to have the chance to hug Pooh in EPCOT again! If you want to meet him elsewhere, don’t forget about his meet and greet in Magic Kingdom with Tigger in Fantasyland or the character meal at Crystal Palace.
