You can find the meet and greet inside the entrance to the attraction (the first room, not the video pre-show area).

Mickey meets guests against a filmstrip backdrop that showcases his appearances over the course of his animated career, from Steamboat Willie, to Fantasia, to The Band Concert. At the center of the space, Mickey stands against a royal blue curtain.

Check out the video below of us meeting Mickey at his all-new greeting place:

Mickey meets intermittently at his new film strip-inspired backdrop inside Imagination! from 9:00 AM to park close, every day.

Do note that as of today, the temporary EPCOT Character Spot is now closed. For a full roundup of all the new character meet and greet locations, click here.

It is unknown how long Mickey will be appearing at this new location for, as a new Character Spot is expected to be constructed in the new World Celebration section of EPCOT.

  1. Seeing that video made me mist up.
    Can’t wait to see Mickey in this spot when my husband and I visit WDW in September!
