Lunar New Year Questions

[gelatoni fan]

I booked a last minute trip for this weekend to see the Lunar New Year Event and have some questions:

1. What characters are available for greeting other than Mickey, Minnie, Mulan and Mushu? Are they all available every single day or are there likely to be different characters on Sunday than on Saturday? How long is the typical wait to meet them?
2. Are the lunar new year limited release pins still available or have they sold out? What store would have them? I'd like to buy both the normal and annual passholder ones.
3. Are there any event exclusive foods that are sold out? I'm thinking of buying a Sip & Savor pass.
4. What time are the arts & crafts, wishing area and calligraphy available?
5. Is there anything at the AP corner right now (lunar new year related or not)? Any other Annual Passholder exclusive things happening? I recall them giving out buttons at previous events and sometimes having AP exclusive character greetings.

1. Check the app to see which characters are available on any given day. I know Pluto has been available, in addition to the characters you listed.
2. There was a cart with the LNY items. We didn't check at any stores.
3. The carts get restocked with food, so if an item is sold out, ask CMs when a new supply is expected.
4. This info might be available on the app. There is also a flyer just for LNY.
5. We didn't see an AP Corner. But there is an AP discount on the Sip & Savor Pass.

As of today, 2/08/20:
1. We saw Mulan, Mushu, and Pluto doing the M&G in the afternoon.
2. There is not much merchandise still available (AP pins sold out the first weekend). What is left is on a small wall display at Seaside Souvenirs.
3. CMs told me that the food item which sells out the most is the Bulgogi Beef and Rice dish. The other dishes are easier to keep in stock.
4. By late afternoon, all that seemed to be finished, so I would hit that area early in the day.
5. Not related to LNY, but there is an AP exclusive popcorn bucket available right now ($20 and refills are $1.50 until the end of March).
