Walt Disney World

May is one of the two months of the year that WDW usually changes around characters and this May is no different. The big changes are at Disney’s Hollywood Studios where Lotso has left the animation building to make way for Winnie the Pooh once his meet and greet area is complete. Also, Phineas and Ferb will finally be making their debut; however, it sounds like it has been delayed until the end of the month. There may be other changes coming this month… normally some characters return for the summer months that are rare during the winter (Wendy for example). Another upcoming change will occur once the Flower Garden Festival ends when the fairies will most likely return to the Magic Kingdom; however, they will probably be located in the Adventureland Veranda where the Princesses were located before the Town Square Theater opened.

Disneyland

The main character related news for Disneyland is the upcoming debut of the Soundsational Parade! From concept art and some previews it appears it will be a great parade! Once again Disneyland will have a parade worthy of it.

Disneyland Paris

April brought the beginning of the Magical Moments festival and with it a number of new shows and happenings. This includes a new once a day hub show named “Mickey’s Magical Celebration” that includes Sorcerer Mickey, Genie, Fairy Godmother, Merlin and most of the Disney royal couples. Also included is a Peter Pan happening named “Follow the leader with Peter Pan” which features Peter, Wendy, Hook, Mr. Smee, and John Darling! One upcoming rumor is that Star ‘n’ Cars will lose its show element and turn into a more normal parade with show stops that will feature character interaction.

Tokyo Disneyland

Due to the earthquake it has been announced that several planned upcoming events have been canceled. Sadly this includes the night time summer programs as well as Halloween events in Tokyo DisneySea.

That is all the character news for this month. Be sure to visit Disney Character Central for all the latest character news and rumors!
