Disney Junior Characters Temporarily Relocated at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
If you’re visiting Disney’s Hollywood Studios over the next few weeks, you’ll want to keep an eye on the My Disney Experience app for a few character meet-and-greet changes. Disney has temporarily relocated the Disney Junior characters who usually meet daily in Animation Courtyard.
You may remember that last week, Disney announced more details for a Cool Kid Summer, a series of events in the theme parks geared toward children. One of those announcements was that Animation Courtyard would transform into a special area offering games and crafts designed to keep kids moving and creating throughout the day. Per Disney, this area will have magicians, jump rope performers, and surprise character appearances!
Disney has relocated Fancy Nancy, Pluto, Vampirina, and Doc McStuffins as they prepare for this limited-time summer offering. Here’s where the My Disney Experience app has the characters listed:
- Fancy Nancy (Echo Lake by Dinosaur Gertie’s Ice Cream of Extinction)
- Pluto (Grand Ave North)
- Vampirina (Echo Lake by 50’s Prime Time Cafe)
- Doc McStuffin (Near Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular)
Currently, the Disney Jr. Play and Dance! is still open. It will, however, be unavailable starting May 25th as preparations are made for a limited-time summer experience called ‘Get Animated.’ That experience will debut inside the play-and-dance building beginning May 27th.
If you’re visiting Disney’s Hollywood Studios (or any other park) to meet characters, make sure to check the My Disney Experience app on the day of your visit for exact character locations. We have a screenshot tutorial with tips on how to locate characters in the My Disney Experience app. If you’re not familiar with how to use the app, we recommend practicing the process at home before your trip.
