It’s becoming even more difficult to find strong male, face characters at Walt Disney World. Princesses rule the Kingdom here and another great male character will, unfortunately, be cut soon.
Prince Naveen will find his final day of meet and greets at the Magic Kingdom on Thursday, June 16, 2016. He is being removed from meet and greets at Walt Disney World as Princess Tiana will become a regular sidekick to Rapunzel at Princess Fairytale Hall. Cinderella will share her meet with Princess Aurora and Snow White will currently remain at the front of the park.
Anna and Elsa’s last day in the Magic Kingdom is also June 16. Their official opening day in their new Royal Summerhus in Epcot is supposed to be June 21, along with the new Frozen Ever After ride. We are still wondering if there will be soft openings before the 21st.
who is taking over auroras spot in the front of the park?
who is taking tianas old spot in the glen?
No one currently
Why are they getting rid of them
Not in their plans at this time, I guess
Another reason why we need Star Wars area to open sooner rather than later. More characters for boys to meet with. The magic kingdom is getting to the point that it will only have cartoon animals for the boys. They’d better not cut Gaston or the Beast.
They haven’t even destroyed Backlot yet. Long time away
Bummer! My daughters will be disappointed as they got to meet them on last visit but no autographs due to rain. They were hoping to get his autograph this time around. How likely is it for us to run onto a training meet at Epcot during July as that is when we are visiting. I do know a friend was as Disney two weeks ago and ran into Prince Eric with Ariel at an Epcot training meet.
Do you think all the cuts are because of Shanghai?
Now that I realize it; it is not real a cut. It is economically worse (disney is losing money). Anna and Elsa are being moved, and they still are available to meet all day. Now disney has to make Tiana and Princess Aurora have meet and greets all day long, but removing the 1 or 2 sets that Naveen had, so Disney is essentially losing money.
No
Glad I got to meet him with her in dlp this year, any news who will fill the spot?
So disappointing! He was our favorite meet when we were there. His interaction with my daughter was one I’ll never forget.
They cut all the male faces :(
Naveen will most likely be at the Christmas party along with the other princes, but we may not see The Prince (Snow White’s prince). Moving Tiana and not Snow White means you guys still have a chance at meeting dopey. PS I bet u all that you will see Louis talk in Mickey’s royal friendship fair, see naveen and see some villian from frozen, tangled, or princess and the frog. Cause what is a show with no opposing force.
One must remember that not every guest can attend a Christmas party, so they may be missing their one opportunity to meet him this summer or fall. Good point about Dopey popping up from time to time. Fortunately we have Palooza too for that. Louis will be in Friendship Faire.
That is true not every one can go. I said that accidentally because I live a couple of hours away, and I take Disney world for granted, which I shouldn’t. Also, I mean that I predict that Louis’ mouth will open and close and he will blink during the show, I bet you Kenny. Also, remember Mickey and Minnie will get their new look next week, because of shanghai.
Yes Louis is supposed to talk in the show. Should be a fun show.
Where will Cinderella be sharing her meet & greet with Princess Aurora?
Cinderella is staying in the same location. Aurora will join her.
They were so much fun when we met them together last year!! He was great, that’s too bad..
My daughter will be upset she said he’s is a hunka hunka hottie
I am sooooooo glad I had the chance to meet both of them on two of our trips in which I Disney Bound as Tiana!! This was one of my favorite meets and greets. I not only loved how you could meet both of them together but also how pretty the gazebo setting was. Such a shame. Now I hope they never remove Tink from her beautiful setting. It was bad enough they got rid of the other faries before I had a chance to meet them.
No plans to remove Tink that I’m aware of.
Darn it we love Naveen!
So sad. Do you think he will join her for MVMCP along with Flynn?
Oops, just saw your post below
Seems possible, but we won’t know for quite a while. They did that for the DVC party.
So is no one going to replace them in Liberty Square?
Could be future meet space for Elena of Avalor, but not sure
So we lose this and Splash Mountain meet and greets?
You didn’t lose Splash Mountain meets, they just moved.
Bummer! I wonder if he’ll be meeting at the holiday parties still? The meet and greet we had with Naveen and Tiana at last year’s Christmas party was one of the most fun character meetings we’ve ever had!
Still possible that we could see him for Christmas parties. He didn’t appear for Halloween last year.
