One of the more common questions I receive since I posted the rumor in November that Joy and Sadness are coming to Walt Disney World is “When are they coming?” Well, I have an answer for you now.
Joy and Sadness should be coming to Walt Disney World’s Epcot theme park for meet and greets in February 2016. Expect them to appear in the expanded Character Spot in Innoventions West near Baymax. Disney should formally announce this news very soon.
hey kenny, thanks for the tip! Any update on when we might see Sadness and Joy in Epcot?
Hope to get some news on it today or tomorrow
fantastic! Super excited to hear it too :)
Thanks for all your hard work!
Do we have anymore news about the time frame they will be coming? It’s halfway through February and still no word yet…
The regular character spot is open during evening EMH. Will the “expansion” be open also?
Baymax is also listed for emh on http://www.characterlocator.com
Great. Thanks for the tip about Baymax being there for Earl EMH. Think we will head straight there at rope drop.
Will they be there in summer 2017
I don’t know when they might leave
SO excited! This movie is on a loop at our house
Awesome! If only they’d add Bing Bong too!
Seriously, you just made my night. My kids will be thrilled!! We are headed end of March and I’m expecting we are going to miss the opening of the new Frozen ride. This surprise will help!!
thank you! you’ve made my day Joyful!
YEEEEES!
Do you think they will be permanent meet and greets?
Nothing is permanent in Disney. Should be here at least until Soarin’ reopens this summer. If popular, could be longer. We’ll have to wait and see.
Awesome! I hope they’re still there in Oct!
Any idea on if they will do a FP+ for them?
No FP for them or Baymax
I thought the Character Spot was a Fast Pass choice. Has that changed?
Meet Mickey, Minnie and Goofy does have FP. they made it really confusing by “extending” Character Spot into Innoventions. Basically added Baymax to old Velcro game area. No FP for Baymax and won’t be one for Inside Out
OMG my girls are gonna freak out!!! So awesome!!!!
Awesome! Thanks for the update – heard anything about if they will be doing to Disneyland as well, or just Epcot?
Only Epcot
