I wonder what it the cause of this? I didn't think they were doing any construction. Perhaps it's a production issue?

Have they changed the area at all? Or are they just putting the characters in there?

I'd be interested to know. It was a very beautiful area already.:)

HUH? When are they getting the tower? I didn't know that was planned either. I though it was a rumor.

They are using an existing FL structure. It is not a replica from the movie but it is reasonably similar. It should open any day now.

Off topic slightly, I saw Dr Facilier has been added to the MK offerings at least for the Halloween season. He seems to enjoy the part and I'm glad Disney has added this m&g. Fun. :)

It's not a rumor. But JT is correct. An existing tower is being modified for DL's meet and greet. Here's the concept art that was posted on the Disney Parks Blog:


Right, and here's what that area normally looks like:

I wonder if DL's meet-and-greet will be delayed as well :shrug:

Hm, I hope they don't change it too too much.. I really love this area (and I'm kind of chapped about Storytime with Belle going too, but we won't get into that).

That looks great!

I had no idea he had been added. I hope he sticks around for a while longer so that I can meet him.

Pretty interesting.

And thanks for the comparison photos, guys! I must say, in this and a few other threads, y'all have been right on top of things with the photo before & after comparisons (I'm looking at you, Samuele, for the Frontierland Donald M&G photos...:wave:)

Now if we could just get some AERIAL comparison shots of some FLE... :cool:

They definitely had the whole area walled off last week when I was there. I can't see then closing the stage area unless they were doing at least something in there. Even if it is only minor.

As of two days ago, Flynn and Rapunzel's friends for the first meet and greet day are still scheduled to hang out with them next Friday. Does this mean that they'll have the meet and greet in a different location for the first ten days, while construction finishes on the Fairytale Garden?

Two days ago was around when the advisory was posted on The Hub about the date change.
