A Popular Character Meet and Greet Is MOVING In Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Okay, we LOVE to meet characters in Disney World, and it’s one of our favorite things we can experience in the parks. The cool thing, too, is that most characters have a set meet-and-greet spot, so you can just find them there at the times listed in the My Disney Experience app. SO easy.

By Robin Burks Leave a Comment

As a Marvel fan, the one thing I love about going to Disneyland is getting to see Marvel characters. It’s always fun to bump into Captain America, Thor, Loki (a personal fave of mine), Scarlet Witch, and more. It’s also nice when Marvel adds new characters to Avengers Campus, which usually happens when a new movie is about to release.

Reed and Sue in Tomorrowland

Well, we now have a tip that one Marvel character that hasn’t been available in Disneyland for a while may be coming back…at least in some capacity. After all, there is a HUGE Marvel movie releasing at the end of the year, so it totally makes sense.

Although the weather is still screaming summer, we’ll soon be enjoying pumpkin spice drinks and snacks, and we can hardly wait.

That also means that a big change is coming to Magic Kingdom, and no, we’re not just talking about all the spooky Halloween-themed decor that will arrive any day now. We’re talking about another big change: the arrival of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party.
