New Character Experience Locations for MK Reopening

[WDW Pro]

Small update today, but here's where you can expect to see your favorite Disney friends waving and being picturesque while meet and greets are unavailable at the Magic Kingdom:

1) Main Street Train Station (Mickey and Friends)
2) Cinderella Castle Fantasyland Balcony (Princesses and Princes)
3) Rivers of America (Unsure... and might be on Liberty Belle, but no confirmation)

Seems like Disney will be doing their best to keep things magical even if characters can't be up close.

Thanks for the info.

It's actually not a bad idea, and is a good way to have aspects of 'normalcy' that wouldn't otherwise be possible during a pandemic.

Thanks. I wonder how long this lasts...?

Foreseeable future.

Just like the park across the ocean.. called it.

We won’t see face characters meeting even if fur does come back next year. I could see face meetings being done for a year or longer.

Glad they will have some characters out and about still. Thx for sharing @WDW Pro

Any info on character meals? Clearly they won’t be making the rounds for the foreseeable future.

Might MK try MRFF or at least the rain ver soon after repoen? How about other parks? SDL can do just Stage Shows now so, MK should be able to figure out something, right? Trolley show only on train station with all the dancers up there since Mickey and Friends can be up there?

I thought Mickey and Friends are doing meals now in the hotels of SDL and HKDL? However, IDK how long it took SDL/HKDL to get those up and running.

Haven't heard yet. I'll be interested too in Ohana and Chef Mickey for multiple reasons.

Great (sarcasm). We are booked at both this year.

I think the family style dining like at Ohana may be ok. Chef Mickey’s will have some troubles.

I wouldn’t want to be the first one to try it out.

Last we heard the zip lift up to it was inoperable

 

[WDW Pro]

And I bet it has been for at least twenty years. Probably good too... some nut job Youtuber would have tried to get up there instead of Body Wars by now

 

[Mainahman]

We dont do the meet and greets at all, but it will be nice to get a few photos of the characters here and there for sure. That helps keep the magic.

 

[Giss Neric]

Guests will have no choice but to stick with all the Disney walls to take pics.
