Although close-contact greetings are currently suspended at the Disney Parks worldwide, Tokyo Disney Resort has recently resumed character greetings, albeit a safe 2 meter distance from Guests. Entry to these is based on the Entry Request lottery system, but we were lucky enough to win a visit with Ariel from The Little Mermaid inside the Mermaid Lagoon Theater! And you can join us for this special experience on YouTube. Just scroll down!

It’s nice to meet characters again, even from a distance, isn’t it? You can enter the Entry Request for this and other character greetings across Tokyo Disney Resort via the TDR App, so be sure to give it a whirl on your next visit to the parks! Do you miss meeting characters one-on-one? Let us know in the comments below, or on social media!
