Exciting news! Disney World is bringing back more live entertainment! Meeting characters and seeing live shows are a key part of a Disney visit. That’s what makes these parks so special and different from typical amusement parks.
They’re saying, while we are not ready for hugs and autographs, there will be opportunities for one on one time with characters. I take that to mean that we can at least get close enough where they’ll pose for individual selfies and chat with you, even if from a slight distance, rather than just walking around a balcony or open space in the distance. They are supposed to start becoming available in various meet n greet spots around mid November.
On Oct 1st, they restarted a few shows around the parks. In the Magic Kingdom, there is a new morning welcome show with Mickey & friends on the castle stage and the piano player is back at Casey’s Corner. The Dapper Dans, Main Street band, and character calvacades have been performing already. In EPCOT, the Taiko Drummers are back in Japan, Sergio the juggler is back in Italy, and a band is back on the Canada stage. In Animal Kingdom, the performers around Asia and Africa are bringing music to the streets. In Hollywood Studios, the nighttime projection show and the Indiana Jones Stunt show are returning soon, while the Beauty and the Beast show and the Disney Jr dance parties have restarted already.
Hopefully, this is a sign that more things are getting back to normal soon. Now, we just need the parades back too!
