Where to Meet Winnie the Pooh Characters


Pooh and pals usually draw a long line as they are incredibly cuddly. Give Pooh a big bear hug when you meet him! He is stuffed with fluff, after all. 


Magic Kingdom
You can meet Pooh and Tigger in Fantasyland at the Magic Kingdom. Their meet and greet area is called the Thotful Spot (get your head out of the gutter) and it is located right next to the Many Adventures of Winnie The Pooh ride. They meet mid-morning to evening, usually 10am-8pm. Check schedules for more specific times. 


EPCOT
Winnie the Pooh meets guests in his homeland of the UK in EPCOT. You can find him towards the back of the Toy Solider shop. This meet and greet area is decorated to look like Christopher Robin's Room, and makes for a very cozy backdrop. Pooh will typically be here by himself. On occasion, another friend from the Hundred Acre Woods, like Tigger, might drop by. This meet and greet experience is open from about 9:00am - 4:00pm. Be sure to check the My Disney Experience app for specific times.

Dining

The Crystal Palace is a buffet style restaurant featuring Winnie the Pooh and pals. Join Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore and Piglet for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The Crystal Palace is themed around greenhouses in the turn of the century. You'll be surrounded by beautiful plants as you eat. I recommend making reservations as this restaurant is popular.

Walt Disney World Without Genie+

Recently, Disney introduced its new Genie+ system. Basically, Genie+ is the replacement for FastPass, except you have to pay to use it now. The FastPass system has been a staple in many Disney trips for 20 years. I myself was a huge advocate. But doing Disney without Genie+ or Lighting Lane is totally possible. Many people have reported on forums that Genie+ is definitely a bonus and not at all a requirement. Here are some tips for a Walt Disney World vacation WITHOUT Genie+: Check Wait Times Walt Disney World's app is a must for every trip. On the app, you can check wait times for every attraction across the resort. You many want to download the app a few weeks before your trip and take note of the wait times throughout the days leading up to your visit to get an idea of when the parks are the most crowded.  Some rides like The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train will have a permanent hour-long wait no matter what.  Some rides like Splash Mountain (Tiana's Version) hit th...

Walt Disney World 2024: Disney's' Hollywood Studios

  Disney's Hollywood Studios, one of the four major theme parks at the Walt Disney World Resort in Bay Lake, Florida, has been an iconic destination for entertainment enthusiasts since its opening in 1989. As we look ahead to 2024, the park continues to evolve and captivate visitors with its unique blend of movie magic, immersive experiences, and beloved characters. 2024 will see some updated attractions and special event dates at Disney's Hollywood Studios.  New Little Mermaid Show The Voyage of The Little Mermaid is one of Hollywood Studio’s longest running stage shows. Like the rest of the parks, it closed in 2020. However, guests noticed its absence once everything else opened. With the show being closed for so long, rumors started to spread. Last year, Disney Darling even predicted an overhaul of Animation Courtyard. It seems that won’t be happening for a few more years (if ever).  Recently, Disney announced the return of a Little Mermaid show. This one w...
