Over the last couple of months, we’ve seen several things return to “normal” in Disney World.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Buffets are back at some restaurants, we recently watched the first parade since March 2020, and almost ALL the Disney World hotels are now open. Some of the most exciting things to come back were character meet and greets in the parks. We just saw the return of MORE meet and greets — check out the photos here!
If you’re in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, head over to the Disney Junior Dance Party attraction area to find meet and greets for THREE Disney Junior stars!

You can hop in line to meet Pluto…
Hey there, Pluto!
…or head over to say hello to Vampirina!
It’s Vampirina!
Fancy Nancy was also here, waving hello and meeting with guests.

This meet and greet is back for the first time since the parks closed last year. Like the other returning meet and greets in Disney World, guests still cannot hug the characters or ask for autographs. But you can get individualized time to talk with them and take photos.

So although you still can’t head into the Disney Junior Dance Party in Hollywood Studios just yet, at least the little ones can meet their favorite characters right outside.
