Character encounters are a favorite part of Walt Disney World. While the classic characters are always on hand around the World, peripheral characters seem to change with the wind (or with the current box office climate). Here are some current and upcoming character changes:
- The Peter Pan characters meet-n-greet in the Magic Kingdom has moved from Adventureland to Fantasyland (now near TinkerBell's Fairy Treasures).
- Thumper and Miss Bunny have been added to the character encounters in Animal Kingdom at Camp Mickey & Minnie (replacing Koda and Kenai from Brother Bear).
- Terrance will soon be joining the Fairies at Pixie Hollow (Toontown in the Magic Kingdom), likely replacing Iridessa.
- Characters from the new animated film, The Princess and the Frog, will be added in the near future, most likely also in Toontown. Characters will include Tiana, Naveen, and Dr. Facilier.
On a related note, we got our first glimpse of a live Tiana at Disney on Ice's Celebrations this weekend. It was a great show, and we loved seeing this newest princess in person! Hoping to catch her show on the Liberty Belle in Frontierland on our upcoming trip! (It's not supposed to officially start until late October, but we're hoping to hit a dry run before the official opening.)
