I will update this list as more characters are confirmed for the event. There are a number of other characters that will appear, but Disney hasn’t confirmed them yet. Some that seem really likely would include Evil Queen, Gov. Ratcliffe, Lotso, Brer Bear, Brer Fox, Prince John, Gamorrean Guard and Tusken Raiders.
Some that could be seen as probable would include the Horace and Jasper, and Stomboli
Some that are unknown at this time include: Imperial Guard, Cheshire Cat, Yzma & Kronk, Snow White’s Old Hag, Hyenas.
NOTE: Cheshire Cat, Yzma & Kronk will NOT appear!

What villains would YOU like to see at this event?
I went last year and it was CRAZY. I’m hoping cause its a hard ticketed event it will turn people off to it and will be a Little calmer(like a Halloween party in October calm…lol)
Should be better than the first iteration, but still pretty busy
Updated the post to add Constantine
Do we know exactly where Maleficent will be??? Maybe in VOTLM or at Disney Junior or at the Magic of Disney Animation???
Dunno
It’s likely that Hans might make his WDW debut at this event, but Disney would never confirm this because that would make the lines extremely long and crowd the whole park. I mean they never announced that the Hades gang would be at Rock Your Disney Side and those lines were outrageous. Oh and I’m glad that none of the characters will be not signing.
I knew that group would be there, but haven’t heard a peep about Hans yet
Kenny, do you have any idea how they are going to organize the characters at “Villains Dominion” on Streets of America? Is it going to be like Character Palooza on steroids, and the characters just come out and people are going to trample each other to get pictures, or will there be set lines for each character (hopefully set up better than at Unleash the Villains!).
I was really excited about this event, but as Mr. Angell pointed out it seems Disney took away a lot of the super rare meet and greets (i.e. Hades group, Oogie Boogie, Yzma/Kronk), and it is basically the special event parties with a few added villains. For $70/person I was expecting something a little more unique.
Maybe I am wrong, but it seems that EVERYONE is going to charge Captain Gantu, Dr. Hamsterviel, and maybe Shan Yu, and I’ll refrain from using expletives to describe the situation. What are your thoughts?
Even if everyone does try and meet Gantu, Hamsterviel, and Shan Yu, they won’t be signing, so lines will move quickly.
The problem is that these characters are listed as “roamers” which is how Character Palooza works. That means there won’t be a line, and autographs don’t even matter. My concern is the pushing/shoving and general lack of civility at an event like this. I can’t tell you how many times my girlfriend was shoved hard at last years Villains event because people were going ballistic to meet the characters. The potential lack of organization at this particular area is very reminiscent of Echo Lake last year.
There will be lines except for the dance party characters.
Correct, no autographs. A commemorative poster seems more likely
I’m betting on the same type of mess as last time with more characters
The lines at Rock Your Disney Side were about 40 minutes long, after you exclude Scary Tale Hall and the Hades gang, and most of those characters signed. Since they aren’t signing and it’s a hard ticket event (which means they can stop selling tickets if they feel it will be too crowded), lines should be around that or even shorter
Forgot to ask: any chance Loki or another Marvel villain will appear?
No, Marvel is at Universal in Orlando
Is there even the slightest chance that they’ll introduce characters for Ursula, Hans, Gothel, or especially Scar?
Very slight
It has been confirmed for me that Yzma, Kronk and Cheshire Cat will NOT appear at this event.
That sucks because Kronk was supposed to test at Epcot sometime in June but his set and Launchpads were cancelled at the last minute
Nice list so far but for a hard ticket event its kind of wrong that a lot of these characters are non meetable because there on stage thats really not fair.Most the characters there offering M&G have been at the last two parties.My son cried last time they closed the line on us for oogie boogie with only one person in front of us after waiting over two hrs.They could of least brought out Kronk and Yzma for this kind of event i think.
What about Hans from Frozen?
Haven’t heard of him coming
Kenny, Are you anticipating that some of the characters that you have listed for Hades Hangout WILL be available for meets except the Hercules crew?
Those will likely just be dancers, not formal meets
So I’m attending alone as I couldn’t talk anyone into going with me. With characters who are roaming or dancing, there won’t be any photopass people, right? So how will I manage to get any pictures with the characters?
Photopass would be at any fixed meet, not dance party. I don’t believe I’m the one that said “roamers” by the way
