Happy Disney+ Day everyone! Disney is celebrating their popular streaming service with big announcements, special perks for subscribers, and some in-park festivities at Disneyland and Disney World.
Today, we spotted some new characters at Disney’s Hollywood Studios who arrived to celebrate the big day.
We spotted some friends from Pixar’s Up over near Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway!

Carl, Dug, and Russell were out saying hello to guests.
We had a great time talking with Dug…
…until he got distracted by a squirrel!
We headed over to visit some princesses next! Moana was greeting guests and telling us about her voyages.
How far will YOU go to see Moana? 🏝

Although the characters are still physically distanced, you can get pretty close. So you can talk with them and take pictures.
Tiana from Princess and the Frog was looking fabulous as well in her gorgeous green dress!

We stopped to chat with her for a bit…
…before heading over to the Star Tours stage to see the next character.

Darth Vader was there with two Storm Troopers.
Like the other meet and greets, you can talk with Darth Vader and take photos as well. He told us that we’re allies with the Empire now, so we’re basically best friends.
