Disney Visa photo op in Epcot?

[2hapykdz]

Anyone know if this is cancelled due to Covid?

As in the character meet and greet spot? All character meet and greets have been suspended for the time being.

This particular one is open but modified. You pose and they put the characters into the photo, photoshopped

Didn’t realize that.

well you are right, not really a physical meet and greet. Here's the description from the Disney site

Wow... that's shoddy. I can photoshop my own pictures. Not that I'm saying meet and greets should be occurring, but oh well, to each his (or her) own.

My profile pic is that photo location from our first visit.

i think it’s a great idea actually. I’m not talented at photoshop, and as this is the only chance for us to get a photo of my son “with”any characters, we will definitely be trying it out. I think it’s the best they can do given the situation

Me too! We are headed down in three weeks so I’ll try to check it out if we can’t find one before then

There are some places you can get socially distanced pics with characters, but there is no schedule as to when they're out. .

MK: characters on stages, you stand in front of the stage, character is 6ft back on stage. Tomorrowland stage has Stitch and Buzz? Across from Pirates is Jack Sparrow...my kids had great interaction with him, he was chatting with us and then we got pics.

Epcot: Garden Grill character meal. You're seated on lower level, characters walk around upper level and you can take pics. Next to Journey to the Imagination, characters are frolicking in the grass, and then come close enough to the fence to take pics. We did one with Joy, and we saw Pooh out as well. They do pics shortly before going in for a break.

A few characters (Mary Poppins and Alice) appear in the gazebo in the back of the UK pavilion at EPCOT as well. There are also a at least three different character cavalcades that move very slowly through the World Showcase. One has the Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora, Ariel, and Jasmine; another has Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, and Pluto; another has Anna and Elsa.
At MK, characters appear at the Main Street train station and outside of the Crystal Palace a few times a day, in addition to the cavalcades.

thanks for sharing those pics. I was/am aware of this spots, however most pictures I saw still looked as though the character was so far away. Yours give me some hope though!

i still think it’s nice they are trying to do something for the visa cardmembers and still would be very interested to see if anyone has a ohoto. I could be completely off but I’m picturing a green screen or magic shot type situation... they put you in front of spaceship earth and then the final photo looks as though Mickey and Minnie and standing right next to you. I know it’s “fake” and not for everyone, but that’s the kind of photo that for my family personally would be great keepsake

It's really no different than a magic shot
