Character meets at Disney’s Hollywood in Janauary

Character meets at Disney’s Hollywood in Janauary


For a stress-free Disney or Universal Studios vacation, let the FREE expert planners at Royal Carriage Vacations take care of every detail including dining reservations, applying discounts, and onboard cruise credit.


Character Palooza ususally goes on hiatus during the winter months, but it appears that it will return soon.  I received the following information from my source that’s close to Character Palooza at Hollywood Studios:

Beginning January 6th, Fantasmic! Area Sets (Character Palooza as we know it) are being scheduled.

With Fantasmic! beginning at 7:00 pm, the sets are likely to be held at 2:30, 3:30 and 4:30 pm.  All three sets should be held on Streets of America, but all entertainment is subject to change without notice.

Thanks for the update! We did CP in October 2012 and met so many characters...so I was disappointed that during this trip they were supposed to be on hiatus. However, I heard about this post from another guest at Animal Kingdom and today we caught the 3:25 set. In appearance: Mary Poppins with Penguin, Pinnochio, Green Army Man, Pocahontas & Meeko, Mr. Smee, Captain Hook, Aladdin & Jasmine, Snow White & The Queen. They were only out for about 30 minutes. Again, thanks for keeping us updated! The characters are one of my favorite parts of Disney!

Can you tell me exactly where to be? I'd like to be waiting a few minutes before the characters arrive. We will be in hs on the 28th and is love to see this!

Any suggestions on when to see captain hook and smee or is it totally random? Would it increase our odds to go multiple days in a row to dhs or are the same characters at palozza usually there each session for a week? We use the app loyally. My son is all about characters and is really wanting to meet captain hook.

It's random, but Hook and Smee are pretty common at Palooza

Kenny, last time I was there, palooza was in the animation bldg as well but no rain as I recall. Is there a way to know for sure where it will be on a certain day? Also, where/when is the dance party typically held? Thanks
