Overview
- Starting Sept. 28, Pinocchio, Jiminy Cricket, Mary Poppins and Bert are now listed on the park’s official schedule for meet-and-greets.
- Appearances occur near the Chinese Theater with multiple daily time slots published in My Disney Experience, and the meets are outdoors.
- Aggregated schedules from WDW Magic show alternating rotations for each character throughout the day.
- Bert has been appearing with a penguin companion at times, and PhotoPass is reportedly not offered for these interactions.
- The rollout follows the Sept. 25 closure of Animation Courtyard, with related shifts such as Darth Vader meeting in the Star Tours overflow queue and Chewbacca roaming Galaxy’s Edge, and outlets describe the rare-character lineup as likely temporary.
