Did I miss Captain Jack Sparrow on the wonderful character list you just posted?
Marriann…Captain Jack is only avaialble at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party (MVMCP link at the top). Perhaps I should add him and other party characters like the Seven Dwarves, Abu, Blue Genie, Country Bears, Wendy and the Various Princes to the list with MVMCP designation?
Oh, shoot.
I was really hoping to see him when we were there. But it’s in May, so I guess not this time.
Thanks for the wonderful list though!
If you are planning a Disney Cruise in the future, he still meets regularly there. Jack is available to see at the Pirate Tutorial, just doesn’t pose for photos or sign autographs.
I have seen Captain Jack outside the Pirates of the Carib ride the last two times. May 2011 was the last time I was there tough.
Melody,
Jack has a show outside POTC, but doesn’t do meet and greets unfortunately.
KtP
Master List == exactly what I was looking for! Great work Kenny!
The only thing that would make it better would be if you included the times in the master list as well.
Gordon…you can also search for the character you’re looking for. I’ll need to learn a few things before I can update each park keep up with the master list too for scheduling
Great to see you here my friend!
We recently saw Piglet in England with Pooh
Awesome find! It’s usually just Pooh and Tigger. Were they in the toy shoppe or near the International Gateway?
I have heard that the characters at Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom appear in different costumes now. Is this true? (for instance, fab 5)
Hollywood Studios characters at the hat do have special new costumes. Animal Kingdom hasn’t changed costumes lately, but they are different than at the other parks
Is it just the fab 5 that have new outfits at HS? Where can I find some pictures of them?
Melanie,
All the characters that meet at the hat have special costumes except for Stitch and the Pooh characters.
Thanks Kenny. Your blog is awesome!
So none of the Little Einsteins are around anymore besides June and then just at Hollywood and Vine? I think when they make their decisions they should consider which shows are currently on heavy rotation on tv.
Thanks for all of the info!
That’s correct Little Einsteins no longer do scheduled meets in the park.
Looks like I will have to book H&V than. They still have June and Leo, right? Wish they would add Jack the pirate. Than that woul be all we would have to do.
Melody,
This is the current line-up for Hollywood & Vine: Agent Oso, Handy Manny, Jake, June
Hope that helps with your planning.
KtP
So, let me clarify. Agent Oso can only be met at Hollywood and Vine?
Yes, Agent Oso and June can only be met at Hollywood and Vine. They don’t host regular meets in parks.
Hi, Kenny, this blog is so helpful, thank you! My son is a HUGE fan of Oso, Jake and especially Handy Manny. Is there any way to know when they’ll take the characters out of rotation at Hollywood and Vine? We’re not going until January. Thanks!
At this point I’d plan for those characters to remain for a while.
WOO HOO! That does it for me. The three year old will be happy with this one and only Character meal than and I don’t need the dinning plan. I swear the last time I looked it didn’t say Jake but, as you stated it does now.
Character Dining at Breakfast and Lunch
Join pals June and Leo from the animated Disney series Little Einsteins as well as Jake the Neverland pirate, Handy Manny and Special Agent Oso at Hollywood & Vine
Your the best! Thank You
Disney’s description isn’t correct, but that’s not uncommon. Enjoy your meal! It’s a fun experience with the dancing and singing.
Kenny- I love your list and all the info is fantastic! Is there any chance you could do a list of characters that are in the different parades.
I think DD would be ok with just seeing some of the characters, but I can’t seem to find good info anywhere on who is in the parades. Is it too unpredictable to do?
Katie, I can begin developing that for you. Might take me a week or two.
KtP
Wow! Thanks so much.
That would be a cool list to have!
What are the 7 characters that only be met with additional expense? We are going in 2 weeks and my 5 yr old is hoping to hit as many as she can
Great question Heather!
Agent Oso Hollywood Studios Hollywood & Vine – All meals*
Capt. Hook Contemporary Resort Pirates & Pals Fireworks*
June Hollywood Studios Hollywood & Vine – All meals*
Lilo Polynesian O’hana – Breakfast*
Mad Hatter Grand Floridian 1900 Park Fare – Breakfast* or Wonderland Tea Party
Mr. Smee Contemporary Resort Pirates & Pals Fireworks*
Prince Charming Grand Floridian 1900 Park Fare – Dinner*
You might find Capt Hook & Smee at Character Palooza in HS, but that’s not guaranteed.
Yellow Rabbit sometimes appears at Crystal Palace too.
Nevermind, I should have looked closer. Disregard my question earlier about Agent Oso, I see the answer.
Isn’t Agent Oso and June at Hollywood & Vine only at B&L? I’m booking now and it is showing the Fantasmic! event at dinner. Is there really Characters at dinner. If I get Characters and Fantasmic I’d be so excited.
Thanks so much for the info!! Your website is great!
^ from Heather….i forgot to leave my name!
Kenny- your blog rocks! Thank you so much for the character list. It is a life saver. I’m making my son and two nieces their own Disney autograph books. This has helped so much. Thank you for making these lists!!
Going in June and putting together an autograph book. Any rumored changes coming up in the near future?
Thought it might be easier to list those characters that I have in question

Enjoy your trip!
KtP
Kenny, have heard that Mushu has appeared at China in Epcot on the day of Chinese’s new years over the past few years.
He has been reported out for that day most years. It’s in Februray this year. They should do a Chinese New Year week with the new celebration and bring out all the Mulan characters.
Thanks Kenny, You have an awesome site!
Thank you Tina!
AWESOME site!!
Thanks!
Do you know if the only place to meet Captain Hook and Smee is the Pirates and Pals fireworks cruise?
Hook and Smee can often be found at Character Palooza in Hollywood Studios, but have no scheduled meets.
This is a great list. I nice addition would be a note to whether there is a photopass photagrapher at each of these locations. I love getting as many full family photos with the characters but not all characters have photopass photagrathers with them.
It’s a great idea, but sometimes the photopass guy doesn’t show up for the meet. I can add the ones that we think MIGHT be there though.
Arrrrrrrgh! You rock Kenny!
What is this Character Palooza you talk about that happens at DIsney Studios? Thanks!!!
Have you heard about the possibility of Doc McStuffins being a character meet and greet (I know she’s new, but Jake was out in a mtter of months)?
Haven’t heard any rumors about Doc. Seems like he would be a good replacement for Handy Manny though.

I guess this guy is only a true “character” in my 5 year old son’s eyes, but do you have information about the remote control talking trashcan (named “Push” I think) that is sometimes found in MK & Epcot? We never had an encounter with it last year and it was the only thing left on my son’s must-see list!
You can find push on the magic kingdom show schedule
Checking back in, any upcoming character changes?
Tina, I recently updated the schedules. Only rumor is Baloo moving to camp.
Thanks Kenny
Will be putting my autograph books together this week before the kids get out of school.
Tina,
Sorry to say that Meeko, Timon, Miss Bunny and Thumper are no longer on the schedules. You might find Meeko and Timon at Character Palooza though.
KtP
Seems my question was lost before and unanswered. Please tell me what is Character Palooza??
Michelle, I’m sorry I missed that! Here’s an article I wrote on Character Palooza: http://kennythepirate.com/2012/05/08/tuesday-tip-take-advantage-of-character-palooza/ Let me know if you have other questions about it. Kenny
Thanks for the update Kenny! Keeping fingers crossed to see TImon at character palooza. Always loved his reaction to his very own autograph card. Hope Disney changes ways and starts adding more meet and greets instead of less.
ps. there will be 7 of us in bright colored mickey head tie dye shirts june 23 to the 30th
I am in the process of making an autograph book. I know we can still see all the Princesses but my questions surrounds the PRINCES to include. I know there is no Flynn Rider, and I know for sure there is Naveen, but what about any other princes?
Carrie,
You can meet Naveen in afternoons with Tiana in Magic Kingdom. Beast is in France, sometimes with and sometimes without Belle, depends on schedule. .Aladdin meets with Jasmine in MK and EP. Prince Eric is with Ariel in MK.
First of all, THANK YOU for all of this information! You are truly a lifesaver for many of us.
Here is a question for you. I have a son who loves Wall-E. I haven’t seen anything mentioned about Wall-E and anything involving Disney World. Just making sure we aren’t missing anything. Thanks for your help!!
WallE doesn’t do meet and greets in any park, but you can see photos were I met him at the first D23 convention here: http://kennythepirate.com/2012/05/30/walle/ KtP
I have seen recent video of Gaston coming out and meeting with Belle in Epcot. I am assuming this is character training for the Fantasyland expansion with Gaston’s Tavern. Have you heard anything about his appearances?
Gaston sometimes does training meets, but other than Mnsshp, he doesn’t offer regular meet and greets and won’t in the new fantasyland. Belle will go back to offering storytime in her cottage, but Gaston will not be a character.
Hey I only like characters that are masked and was wondering if new fantasy land will have dopey or something if u don’t know please tell me @ least who u think will be there. Thanks!
Yes do you know if Dopey will ever be seen again outside of parties?!
Tough to answer what they might do in the future. He sometimes makes surprise appearances during training seasons.
First of all, your site is fantastic. But I have a question.
I am desperate to meet Peter Pan. The master list says he is by Philharmagic. But the MK list says he is by the Advantureland bridge. Where will he be?
Thanks so much, these lists are a huge help in planning my trip.
Chrystal – last time I saw Peter, he was very close to his ride. (It is relatively close to Philharmagic. My favorite thing about the picture was the hidden Tinkerbell painted in the window! I didn’t notice her there when I was talking to Peter, but I love how it looks like she is flying actual size over Peter’s shoulder in the picture. What attention to every tiny, magical detail!
Peter was moved from Philharmagic when they began using the window for Sorcerers game. He is located near the Adventureland bridge now.

I think my two year old has stumped me. Is there anywhere to meet Flora, Fauna and Merryweather from Sleeping Beauty?! Doesn’t look like it but just wanted to double check. Thanks!
Hi, making my third wdw trip this october all the way from bonnie scotland with my two young kids, (4 & 8), we have booked mnsshp for the 10/11 and was wondering what characters can we expect to bum into? and where? …. many thanks in advance Corvette =)
This is who appeared last year: http://kennythepirate.com/hard-ticket-parties/mickeys-not-so-scary-halloween-party-outline/
Is there ever Charachterpalooza during the “holiday” season? We will be at WDW after Thanksgiving and Fantasmicis always scheduled at 6:30pm! Thanks
Palooza happens year around based on the following schedule:
http://kennythepirate.com/2012/05/08/tuesday-tip-take-advantage-of-character-palooza/
ok i wont be there for the christmas party but will be there from dec25-31 how much different as the meetings and are there ones that arent normal on the schedual but will be there because of being christmas time?
There are a number of special characters that appear for the party. No special characters appear at the Magic Kingdom during that week unless they are training meets.
At the hoe down…Can you do pics or autographs with Brer Rabbit???
At the hoe down…Can you do pics or autographs with Brer Rabbit???
Hi Kenny! Is there still no Doc McStuffins rumors?
No, haven’t heard any buzz on Doc still.
No autographs from Brer Rabbit at Hoedown… Politely ask for a photo with Brer Rabbit… If he wants to then you’re in luck… The characters are there to just mingle with the guests, photos are optional & up to the characters choice & discretion… Hope that helps!!! Most of all, being nice & polite goes a long way in getting a photo…
Sorry, I thought I had replied to that question via email. I guess it didn’t post. Thanks to anonymous for answering.
Thank to both…yo did reply Kenny….I also posted question in “Why Characters” section. I do have another question…In reading on another disney sight, they stated brer bear and brer rabbit can be seen in Animal Kingdom, at Camp Minnie Mickey. This is the first I had seen of that. Is that true? Once again love the sight, visit daily!!!!!!
Also if not, is there anywhere in Disney World that you can get Brer Rabbits autograph/pic in a meet n greet? Thanks. Headed there October 13th and am trying to get all my “Mickey’s” lined up..lol
I just found this site on the last day at Disney world. I love it and can not wait to use it when we go back hopefully next year. This was our first trip and my girls got autographs and picture with 43 different characters. Just wanted to share that this past weds. In Tinkerbell’s Nook we got to meet Periwinkle her sister from the new movie.
Brer Rabbits can be seen during the ho-downs in frontier land, Pictures can happen,. autographs very very unlikely.
Yes, the Brers come out to dance. I’ve gotten a photo with Brer Bear, but Rabbit keeps running away.
The Master list reflects ONLY the characters regular scheduled meets though. I don’t track the randoms or dance characters for schedules. I should add Hoedown in general to the Magic Kingdom list though. Currently only have it on showtimes.
Going next year…. Fingers crossed doc mcstuffins is there. She is my 4 year olds idol! She tells me she is going to be a doctor in Africa and china now that travels to help sick little kids. I feel doc can be very inspirational for their futures.
I noticed that Beast isn’t on the list any longer. I could have sworn he was there a few weeks ago…Is he no longer meeting in France with Belle? Any rumors about him being added to Fantasyland when the expansion opens?
Beast was removed and will only be available for dinner at Be Our Guest
KtP
Hi Kenny!
Doing a last minute as in 13 days to get everything together tirip and was wondering if you could advise what characters have been sighted recently during characterpalooza?
Also when is wreck it ralph and vanellope suppose to start thier meet and greet?
Thanks so much!
Tina
got your reply on the other forum. Thanks again!!
As someone who works at Animal Kingdom, I just want to let you know that Chip & Dale have moved back to their permanent spot in Camp Minnie Mickey by the funnel cake stand. They were only moved to Rafiki’s Planet Watch for around a week. They can be found in camp until about 1:30, but their set doesn’t officially end until 1:40- thanks so much for your list otherwise it is very accurate. Thanks! – Kirstyn
Thanks. I updated location on ak page but forgot master list.
KtP
Oh also, Periwinkle is going to be permanently meeting with guests from now on with Tinker Bell at magic kingdom- all other fairies have been removed, and meeko will meet in the afternoon with Pocahontas in animal kingdom. Just giving a little cast member knowledge (:
Good to hear the Meeko gets some love!
KtP
Oh, and Be Our Guest is NOT going to be a character meet and great. Fine dining, no characters. I know plenty cast who work there, this is a verified and true fact.
Hi Kenny! Thank you for such great info! Just wanted to know where I can find Peter Pan? You have him listed at both adventureland and philharmonic. Thanks!

You forgot Merida!
No, she’s right there on the list underneath Mater in alphabetical order.
oh i see it now! haha sorry!
Hi Kenny, does Maxi appear anywhere please (goofy’s son). We are at WDW from 13th December to 27th December and have MVMCP tickets.
Thanks
Claire
We are going to Disney during Christmas week. I was wondering if you could give me some directions for meeting Pocahontas – my youngest favorite princess (weird huh?). We went during this time last year and she was not at Camp Minnie/Mickey and we could not find her at Rafiki’s planet watch. Any ideas?
Thanks
Her schedule is listed here: http://kennythepirate.com/disney-world-character-schedules/disney-world-animal-kingdom-characters-schedule-list/
Click on Pocahontas to see her location. She’s only in Camp now.
Hi, we will be in Disney the first week of March. We have reservations at Be Our Guest and I have heard the Beast will possibly be there for a photo opportunity. Is that true? Also, have you heard any rumors about the possibility of Doc Mcstuffins or princess Sofia at Hollywood and vine? Thanks:)
Yes, you can only meet Beast for Dinner at Be Our Guest after you eat. No word on Doc. Sophia is supposed to begin sometime in the spring.
Is Bolt retired?
Bolt stopped offering regularly scheduled meets a long time ago. You might find him at Character Palooza or in Epcot for surprise meets.
In the last 24 hours, 2 different people (who I don’t personally know) posted pictures to Instagram with Chip from Beauty and the Beast from WDW. Both were standing in front of a low stone wall with pink and red flowers behind them. Any ideas on if this was a one time thing or will this be a regular meet and greet?
Nevermind! I saw your other link with the unexpected meet and greet of these Beauty and the Beast characters.
I just made a post about that yesterday
Is Beast still meeting at Be Our Guest at dinner after you eat? Any more news on when/if in the Spring Sofia the First and Doc McStuffins will be at Hollywood and Vine?
Thanks!
Yes, Beast is right above Belle in the list. Sophia may arrive late spring. Heard nothing on Doc.
Is there any way to meet Mickey in his wizard outfit from Fantasia?
Sorcerer Mickey is at Hollywood Studios. Check that schedule for times
Hi Kenny – we are heading to DW in a week. It will be our first trip with our 4 year old and she is beyond excited. Do you know if they will have Doc McStuffins or Sofia the First out and about? I know that they are set to appear in Disney Jr. Live – but that opens up the week after we are there. Wasn’t sure if they would have the characters out prior to that. Thanks!
No those characters aren’t out now and Sophia may begin late fall. No word on Doc.

what is the name of caracther spot?
Epcot Character Spot
Est ce que vous parler francais
This list is awesome! I’m just curious as to which characters are inanimate. Our band is going in early March and we want to meet all the living ones!
I don’t understand the question. All the characters on this list are live. Some are face, some are fur, none are cut outs and none are animatronic.
Oh, okay! Awesome! I guess some of the pictures made me think they were statue-type things.
I appreciate your help
don’t forget Peter Pan at theirates and Pals Firework Voyage
Shhh…he’s a secret
Thanks for this fantastic list! Great job.
Last year during my birthday trip first week of March, Darth Vader was out with Storm troopers at the HS Star Tours ride, posing for pics and autographs. I got a great pic, and had a fun character interaction. The Storm troopers also signed autographs.
Pinocchio was out in MK near the Barbershop in Town Square.
Jiminy Cricket was at Rafiki’s Planet Watch
I love meeting characters, especially ones you aren’t expecting!
Any word on the rehab at Disney Junior? I think they were supposed to reopen today. Wondering if Sofia and Doc are doing meet and greets by there now.
The new show has opened. There are no new meet and greets
any idea if/where there is a place to meet the mice from Cinderella? We are going the Disney World in 2 weeks and that is who my 2 year old daughter wants to see most!
None of the 4 mice from Cinderella offer meets at Disney World. Last time I saw the girl mice was a surprise visit at the halloween party and the boys have been out in forever.
Are the odds of seeing Indiana Jones/Marion very high? We’ve never seen them so I’d like to add their autographs to our collections in June.
Indy often meets after the Stunt Show. Stay around until everyone has left. You’ll see him on the bottom right. I’ve only had Marion stay around once, but you might ask if she will.
Thanks. I’ll have to make up a set of cards just in case then.
Hi Kenny! Heading back to the world in April, currently working on another set of autograph cards. Can you offer any information of whose is appearing at Characterpalooza?
We won’t know for sure until March 10, but the ones from last year are on the side menu.
hey i just came across your site! we have a trip planned late may for our 4 yr old grandaughter who is quite obsessed with the princesses! ive jotted down the meeting places- thank you sooo sooo much!
You’re welcome. I have their full schedules on here and it’s mobile friendly too
Kennythepirate,
My son loves Pete from Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. We will be there this year from 12/1 through 12/10 is there any where we can actually meet Pete in character?
Thanks for the great list!
Unfortunately, Pete is not meetable and there’s no plans to change.
Is Pete at least apart of the disney junior stage show?
No, he isn’t a part of that show. Only a giant cut out at the silly sideshow entrance
How accurate are your lists? I don’t know how often you update them and whether you use your own personal trips for updating, or if you take information from others who have been inside the parks recently, etc. I’m wondering this both for the Master List and also the schedule of character apperances. Is the schedule based on a specific seasons? Or is it consistent throughout the year? How often do they change them. I’m wondering these things because I’m wondering if I could take this information now an apply it for a trip later, or if I should come back closer to my trip date…
Extremely accurate and update dates are on each schedule. Schedules change seasonally.
Great list!! Do you know how long WIRalph and Banellope will be at HS? We go at the end of June and hoping they will still be there!
They will probably be there then
I may have missed this but what princesses are at the new princess meet and greet in new fantasyland??
It isn’t open yet but will be Cinderella + one other and Rapunzel + one other. There’s a full description in the Rumors
How often are changes to this made? We will be there August 17th – August 24th. Would I be safe to print this out and start making plans now or would you recommended that I come back closer to our trip? And if I should wait, when would be a good time to check back in? Thanks!
As often as they occur. Date is always updated when changes are made.
I can’t say when or if schedules in advance, just react to the changes that wdw makes
