(redirect) Epcot – The Ultimate Character Checklist

Meeting your favorite Disney characters is usually a top priority for most guests visiting Disney World. While visiting characters can certainly be done on a whim, for the best experience possible, it’s best to have a plan and even some FastPasses with you at the beginning of the trip. That plan begins with knowing where the characters are located in the parks.

Coming in second as the park with the most characters, Epcot provides a special opportunity to see some unique characters that you won’t find anywhere else. Also, being able to see Mickey, Minnie, and Goofy in one air-conditioned spot is a great way to check the three top characters off your list! FYI – Epcot Character Spot for Mickey, Minnie, and Goofy is also the only meeting area in Epcot where a FastPass+ can be used.

We’ve put together an all-in-one checklist for you to easily see where the characters are located, what kind of environment you’ll meet them in (yeah for air conditioning!), whether you can reserve a spot with FastPass+, and the times you’ll be able to greet them. Use this list to plan your day meeting characters at Epcot.

Times are current as of September 10, 2018. Times and characters may vary and change and are not guaranteed. Always check the Times Guide in the park for the most up to date information.
