Dining with Grand Gathering at Tony's

[P&B's Mom]

Does anyone know which characters are usually present at the Grand Gathering Character Dining at Tony's? I know it is Mickey and Friends, but I was wondering who the "friends" were in attendance?

Thanks for any help.

Would like to know as well. The whole family is going in August and will have to start to preparing when making the ADR's in March.

My family attended this last December. It was one of the best character dining experiences we had at WDW! It was my parents' 40th anniversary and Tony sang to them as they danced. Of course Mickey and Minnie were there along with Donald, Daisy, Pluto, and Goofy. The kids got to dance with all of the characters as well as get autographs and pictures. The amount of time spent with the characters was great. The food and service were wonderful as well. My nephew has food allergies and as usual Disney chefs went all out to accomodate this. It was a preplated meal but the servers brought out heaping plates of seconds on anything. Also, there were not that many people in attendance so it was a pretty intimate setting for a character meal.

After much discussion with my family, we are going to make this one a go! I need to call WDW tomorrow and get more information about becoming a "legal" Grand Gathering. Wish me luck!

Anyone see Chip and Dale here recently? They are one of my DD's absolute favs!

Another quick question--does anyone know what days of the week this offered? I have read various reports, but not sure which one is correct.

Thanks!
