Merida and Tiana?

[annej]

Where can you meet them? Where?

And are they a fastpass+ selection?

I tried a search but didn't find the answers so thanks for helping me out!

Unless they've moved, Merida is on the garden side of the castle (near the smokers), in her own little area and Tiana is on the opposite side of the castle, in the little gazebo near Liberty Square.

They aren't fast passable. I'v seen really long lines for Merida, and Tiana usually has a shorter one.

Merida meets on the path to the right of the castle - near 47
Tiana currently meets in Heritage House - near 38

Neither have FP+

Merida starts meeting at 9:15, and her line hangs around 45-60 minutes all day. For the best chance to meet her with little wait, go at opening
Tiana meets throughout the day. In the morning she is by herself. After the parade Naveen meets with her. In the morning, Tiana has very short lines (or no line at all). In the evening the lines can fill up very quickly, ranging from 20-45 minutes depending on when you get in line.

Thank you for this info, my daughter is very eager to meet Tiana. Planning to meet her early afternoon right after lunch at LTT.

You can meet Merida in Magic Kingdom, in a little meet and greet close to the wishing well by Cinderella Castle and the backside of Cosmic Rays.

Tiana meets in Liberty Square, normally in a little courtyard behind the Christmas shop. However due to construction on the new restaurant, I believe she is still in the building next to Hall of Presidents

You guys are the best! Thank you! My 23 year old princess will be thrilled!

I would personally recommend meeting Tiana with Naveen if you have the time. The two of them together makes for the perfect character meet. I go to visit them about once a week and they are great with us princesses who are in our 20's

Naveen is typically worth the wait. It is great to get them both together and unless things have changed if you wanted a separate picture with just one of them, they will do that. When we saw Tiana in October, no one seemed to really realize she was in Heritage House even though there was a sign by the door. We walked in and there was no one there but Tiana and the photographer. When we left, no one else had walked in to see her. We knew she was in Heritage House, but didn't realize where that was (after a bunch of WDW trips), and someone else had to point it out to us. You might try seeing her by herself earlier in the day when there is no line, and then try again to catch her with Naveen if the wait is not too bad.

Definitely meet Naveen, too if you can. he was really funny and talked to us for awhile. My daughter had a book with different Disney couples and she showed it to them and he talked about it a lot. Merida is a fun met and greet, too.

Good to know she meets with Naveen - have seen her in the gazebo, but only seen both in the parade. We got lucky because we rushed over right before her break, and they were about to close the rope, but let us in - she spent a lot of time talking with DD and taking photos. We will have to look for them in the new location in a few weeks.

There was NO wait for Naveen and Tiana at the MVMCP tonight! They were super fun to meet - great interaction!

 

[dylanna]

I'm getting so hyped for my trip to MVMCP next week and hopefully I can see Tiana before reservations at BoG and between FPs . I'm not really a meet and greet kinda person but I think I would enjoy this. Also small lines make me more likely (but also makes me sad because I really loved Princess and the Frog, but maybe less peeps just refers to the location confusion.)

Tiana is my 18 year olds favorite princess! We saw her with Naveen at The Gazebo. Thanks for the info on the move. We were there in July. Seems like there have been lots of changes.

Merida is the best character interaction I've ever seen. We hopped in line thinking it looked short, not realizing they take a lot of people into the M&G area where you can't see to wait. Probably ended up waiting 45 minutes and was kind of a grump about it...until we got up there. She really took her time with my daughter and interacted so well with her. A lot of people assumed that since my daughter was 2 she didn't care so much about chatting with the princesses and that we just wanted pictures and to go, but meeting princesses was the highlight of her trip. Merida was great with the smaller kids. It was one of our more magical moments!
