Overview
- Disney’s website lists both Daring and Dashing Disney Pals meet-and-greets as unavailable from January 5, with no reopening date announced.
- During the work, Minnie, Daisy, Donald, and Goofy will greet guests elsewhere in Storybook Circus, with locations and times to be confirmed in the My Disney Experience app.
- Big Top Souvenirs, the adjacent shop and snack spot, is expected to remain open during the maintenance.
- October permits naming Birdair, Inc. and extending through December 31, 2026, indicate a longer tent-focused project, following reports of wear on the Storybook Circus fabric structures.
- It remains unclear whether the characters will appear in their circus outfits during the relocation, and reported timelines such as a summer 2026 reopening are unconfirmed by Disney.
