Character Meet and Greets
Character meet and greets are one of the best things at Disney World! I love the interaction and getting to rub elbows with some of my favorite characters from the movies I absolutely adore so let’s chat about that next. This has some pretty great news and some news that some of you may not like depending on how much you love these people.
Good news first! There will be two new character greeting experiences debuting this spring at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, where you step into the scenes with some of your most beloved Disney characters, as they live out their Hollywood dreams. Premiering in spring 2016 in the Echo Lake district at Disney’s Hollywood Studios is the all-new Celebrity Spotlight, the perfect place for a dream encounter with one of Disney’s latest stars. Get ready WDW fans, because the warm hug loving snowman Olaf, from Disney’s hit film “Frozen.” Is finally coming to Disney World! Olaf will be living out his dream “In Summer,” chilling on the beach and ready with warm hugs for all his friends!
Opening this spring as well, is “Mickey and Minnie Starring in Red Carpet Dreams,” located just off Commissary Lane near the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant. Here you can join Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse, as they’re living the dream as A-list Hollywood stars. You’ll walk the red carpet, step into a scene with Minnie, where she appears as a Tinsel Town starlet in a ritzy setting straight out of a lush and colorful musical extravaganza. Nearby, you will find Mickey portraying his iconic role of the Sorcerer’s Apprentice from “Fantasia.” For Disney character fans, this spring at Disney’s Hollywood Studios promises to be a dream come true!
Now for the not so great news as some of you may or may not have known, Lady Tremaine (you know the evil stepmom from Cinderella?) well she and her daughters have always met in the Magic Kingdom at the new Fantasyland wall or at the side of Cinderella castle. It saddens me to say that Lady Tremaine will no longer be meeting guest in the Magic Kingdom, but I’m almost positive that the step sisters will continue to meet at both locations. However if you are an evil ne'er do-well loving individual and want to meet her along with her daughters then you can do so by booking a reservation at 1900 Park Fare at the Grand Floridian!! As an added bonus if you go to see here at 1900 you’ll also get to meet Cinderella and the ever so handsome Prince Charming *swoon*, plus they have delicious food!

Buzz Lightyear
Buzz usually has a somewhat long line, so when I seen that it was fairly short I jumped at the chance to meet him! The last time I seen him I was five so I was dying to see and talk to him again. This happened this past December as well and now that I think about it, this past trip gave us some of the best character interactions we’ve had in a long time! Okay so what happened was it was my turn to meet him and I got up there and this trip I wanted to actually talk with the character, not just get a picture and leave, so I asked him which “button” on his space suite put him into Spanish mode and he pointed to so I then asked him if I could press it and he let me!! I was so thrilled, because I read where people have done this and they had a blast. So I pressed the button and he went into his Spanish mode, stared by doing a little salsa dance and had me grab his had so he could spin and twirl me around and it was seriously so much fun!! So if you have a buzz fan or want to meet him I highly recommend that you ask him about his Spanish mode button!!!
