Meet Chipmunk-O-Saurus at Disney’s Animal Kingdom (Chip and Dale)
Update: This meet-and-greet permanently closed in early February 2026 with the rest of Dinoland, USA. Chip and Dale now meet in another park area, wearing traditional outfits. You can learn more about their current location in our guide to meeting characters at Animal Kingdom. The continuing article is left for historical reference.Â
Chip and Dale, I mean Chipmunk-O-Saurus, meet daily at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. This pair of dinosaur-costumed chipmunks has quite the character meet! Below, we’ll discuss how to meet Chip and Dale in their dinosaur costumes at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. We’ll look at where to meet them and what kind of wait to expect.
Chip and Dale meet off the Cretaceous Trail in Dinoland, U.S.A., at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. This meet, in particular, is unique because they are wearing bright-colored costumes that resemble dinosaurs. The entrance to the Cretaceous Trail is on the left-hand side of the walkway that leads to Dinosaur, the attraction.
It’s a little off the beaten path, but there’s a sign out toward the front of the trail. Daisy Duck also meets at the front of the trail. So if you see her out, you’ll know you’re in the right place.
However, you probably won’t see Chip and Dale because they meet toward the back of the trail. But you’ll likely see a line ahead and a few signs indicating you’re in the right place.
As you approach the character meet, you might run into a bit of a mess. It appears the pair of Chipmunk-O-Saurus have decorated the entire area.
I liked how the Paleontologist Zone had been turned into a fun zone.
Chip is wearing a purple dinosaur costume, while Dale (red nose) is wearing a green costume.
Both of the Chipmunk-O-Saurus were excited to greet their guests.
I arrived at 2:15 p.m. for the 2:30 p.m. meet-and-greet listed in the My Disney Experience app. However, the cast member turned me away because the line was already so long. He suggested I return for their 4:00 p.m. meet-and-greet. Even though I was early, they were a little off-schedule this afternoon, which happens occasionally. As always, you’ll want to check the app on the day of your visit for exact times and availability.
While I waited, I met Donald Duck. After that, it was nearly 3:51 p.m., so I was able to return and get in line for Chip and Dale’s next scheduled time of 4:00 p.m.
When I joined the line, two groups were ahead of me. Unfortunately, Chip and Dale were late and didn’t get to the meet-and-greet until 4:09 p.m. A PhotoPass photographer was present at this location on the day of my visit. Chip and Dale also signed autographs.
Overall, meeting Chip and Dale in their Dino-Bash costumes was tons of fun! For more places to meet the pair, see our list of every location to meet Chip and Dale at Disney World. Some of the other fun places we’ve seen them in the past include:
