No, this was always supposed to be a "surprise and delight" experience where disney doesn't post it and people just happen upon it and are pleasantly surprised.So by outside the gates, do you mean before you even enter the park? Besides paying for the Character Locator, can this info be found out anywhere else?
I've been seeing characters in that spot for years nowfollowing - i've hear mixed things over the last few years. Outside the gates is interesting...
I've never seen anything official refer to it as "Character Palooza". I believe that name was given to what takes place by another website, but it's a well known fact that it does occur. I've been at several at DHS. The locations were as, Yulilin3 posted, and also at the Sunset Showcase Courtyard. While hanging around the SS Courtyard for something else, I was asked by a number of Guests whether or not it was going to take place again. It had taken place when I arrived earlier but I didn't know if was going to happen again. It didn't, so they waited for nothing.
Actually I have, internally.You've never seen anything official refer to it at all. (That's the point.)
Yeah but usually only a few not the bigger group that used to show at ToTI've been seeing characters in that spot for years now
It’s because most Fantasmic show performers only come in to perform for the show. They don’t need the “filler” hours that were made up of the afternoon meet & greet sets leading into the show scheduling.Yeah but usually only a few not the bigger group that used to show at ToT
I would say it's around the same amount.Yeah but usually only a few not the bigger group that used to show at ToT
Exit the park, they are right by the tapstiles, you won f have to go through security again because it's after that pointSo if we wanted to try to see this we would have to leave the park. Then go back into the park afterwards?
Not sure what your point is.To me that does not seem to be very Disney, making you exit the park and rentering again.
It actually is very Disney as the #1 mandate for CMs is: Safety First.To me that does not seem to be very Disney, making you exit the park and rentering again.
Anyone have an estimate of the time? 3-4pm? 5-6pm? I understand that it probably varies—just trying to get a general idea. Thanks!
