In the Magic Kingdom, there is nothing better than meeting your favourite Disney Character! There’s so many it’s hard to pick which one to see more.
Here are my 5 favourite Character Experiences that I always visit in the Magic Kingdom:
1) Winnie the Pooh; Fantasyland
2) Magic Mickey Mouse; Main Street
3) Donald and Goofy; Circus Tent
4) Merida; Fantasyland Entrance
5) Gaston; Gastons Tavern
Top Tip: if you want the best experience give something to the character; a line, a story, something for them to interact with.
Now, there are so many characters in MK it’s hard to list them all. However, these are the ones that I always visit, not once but twice a visit if I can.
Winnie the Pooh; Fantasyland
Honestly, I don’t think Pooh can do a bad experience. You can talk food, friends or anything you want. He gives the best hugs! Found next to his ride in Fantasyland, meeting Pooh is my first one for every trip.
Magic Mickey; Main Street
Magic Mickey can be found in Town Square and is ready to share his magic tricks with you. I love catching Mickey in MK as it’s a fantastic way to finish off the day before heading home or start your park finish.
Donald and Goofy; Cirus Tent
Stuntman Goofy and Hypnotist Donald are a charming pair you get to meet in one queue. Donald loves meeting people and Goofy is such fun. This is my favourite spot to meet them both back in Fantasyland.
Merida; Fantasyland
The only place I’ve found Merida, she’s such a charming character to interact with. Her knowledge of archery and Scottish Myths are always fun to discuss. However, don’t be afraid to mention the pie incident with her mother.
Gaston; Gastons Tavern
In the back of Fantasyland, you can find Gastons Tavern. Just out side Gaston will appear. You can talk Belle, show him anything reflective and you can’t stop Gaston from talking about himself.
While these are my favourite character experiences, there are many more characters to meet. Check out for my Guide to MK Character Experiences (coming soon) on all the characters available to meet.
