If there’s one thing Disneyland has totally nailed ever since A Touch of Disney, it has got to be their character interactions! We’ve been consistently impressed by the unique ways guests can say “hello” to their favorite characters — after all, we have a lot to catch up on from the last year apart!

Sleeping Beauty Castle

Among all the characters we love to spot in the theme parks, the Princesses are a highlight in our eyes. So we made sure to track them down after Disneyland reopened last week!

As one would guess, Fantasyland is THE place to go if you want to see the princesses. Right now, you’ll want to head to Royal Theatre where you can interact with select Disney royalty from a safe distance! Need to find Royal Theatre? It’s to the lefthand side of Sleeping Beauty Castle as you walk up from Main Street, U.S.A.!

Aurora, looking wide awake!

On our most recent trip, we spotted Aurora (Disneyland IS the home of her castle, after all!)…

…as well as Ariel! We’ve also heard hints that Belle and Mulan may be spotted at the Royal Theatre, so there may be a different set of princesses there when you visit!

As we journeyed further into Fantasyland, we also spotted Snow White!

But be careful…as Snow White was greeting guests, we happened to notice the Evil Queen watching over her (and us!).

Just like in Disney World, traditional character meet and greets are currently unavailable at Disneyland and Disney California Adventure, but there are still tons of opportunities to wave and chat with the characters on your next trip to the Happiest Place on Earth! Be sure to follow along as we continue to cover the historic reopening of the Disneyland Resort.
