One thing that sets Disney Parks apart from other Theme Parks is so many great character meet and greets. We all love classic characters like Mickey and his pals, but many Disney fans love meeting the classics in various costumes.

Our favorite Character Locator, Kenny the Pirate, has been meeting rare and classic characters for over a decade! You can find schedules, tips, and more on Character Locator.

This summer is a great time to meet a big variety of Disney characters with "Cool Kid Summer" and a special Annual Passholder meet and greet.

Donald Duck Relocated

Recently, there were large construction walls spanning from EPCOT's Mexico pavilion to the Norway pavilion. These construction walls covered where guests could meet Donald Duck in his festive sombrero in Mexico.

During this construction, Donald Duck relocated the Disney and Pixar Short Film Festival Lobby. He was dressed in his classic sailor outfit, rather than his sombrero, because of this location change.

Although not quite the same, guests were happy to still be able to meet with Donald Duck at this location.

The construction walls are now removed between the pavilions of Mexico and Norway, and our #1 Duck has returned. The best part is that Donald Duck is back in his classic Mexico outfit.
