Princesses in Epcot?

[Aidensmom]

DS (yes DS, not DD) really loves the princesses, but when we went to MK last month the line for the Princesses was just way too long for a 3-year old to handle, so he did not get to see them. We are going to Epcot on our next trip in June, are any of the princesses in Epcot? He especially loves Cinderella (he says he is going to marry her! ) We are FL residents who just go for day trips occassionally without a park-hopper option, so going to another park is not an option.

Many of the Princesses appear at the character breakfast at Norway. I believe Norway has recently expanded their appearances to the lunch and dinner meals also. I've heard that Cinderella makes appearances here on occasion as well as Snow White, Belle and Jasmine. Ariel, in her human form is scheduled to appear at the Norway lunch and dinner (not sure about the breakfast.) Snow White is frequently found in Germany, Belle in France, Jasmine in Morocco. Hope this is helpful. Have a great time on your next visit!!

Cinderella is a favorite with my niece too, but I don't know where you can find her in Epcot. I recommend her Royal Feast at the Grand Floridian though. It's only Cinderella, her mice, Fairy Godmother and the Prince, but if you are a Cinderella lover it is a wonderful dinner! Cindy has lots of time to spend with DS's OR DD'S! LOL! Some of the best pics from our last trip were from Cinderella's Royal Feast at the GF. (oh, and they have yummy food too!)

my best tip to avoid lines with the characters is to go at the very beginning of their meet and greet -

if there is a character that we really want to see - I ask at Guest services where that character will be and they will tell you the time that character will be coming out - I found that if I get there 5 minutes ahead of time - there is no line yet - most people don't go looking for characters - they just rely on running into them - if you plan your character interactions - you are much more likely to have short lines to meet them

ETA: there is a website with character locations

here is where they say you can find Cinderella:

Cinderella
Cinderella's Royal Table Breakfast in the Castle at Magic Kingdom
Toontown Hall of Fame at Magic Kingdom
Great Movie Ride Courtyard at MGM
France Pavilion at Epcot's World Showcase
Cinderella's Gala Feast at the Grand Floridian's 1900 Park Fare

There are some princesses scattered around Epcot, and it's very hit-or-miss who you might see! We seen Snow White in Germany (on the main sidewalk, easily visable), and also in the International Gateway entrance to Epcot, on the main sidewalk near the water. We seen Aurora many times in France, by the garden behind the shops, near the water. Belle is also often in France, but we only seen her in her blue/white clothes, not a princess dress. Is Mulan a princess? If so, she sometimes can be found in China. She has a few different spots she meets at, so you may have to look around. We seen her on the main sidewalk, and also right near one of the buildings. I read reports of people seeing Cinderella in France, but that is quite rare. Mary Poppins is not technically a princess, but she seems very elegant and royal! She makes appearances in England either in the Toy Store or out on the sidewalk.

So there are a smattering of princesses around! Hope you find some!

Thank you for all of your replies. Now I have an excuse to sit and have a glass of wine or two in France....I will just be looking for the princesses!

I would recommend the Princess Storybook Breakfast. We've been twice and really enjoyed it both times. We've never seen Cinderella there, but have had great interaction with other princesses. Last fall, we went there mainly for my DS3, who adores Snow White. Before we left for WDW, he said he wanted Snow White to keep him for one of her dwarves! Anyway, Snow White was the first princess to come to our table. She instinctively began paying more attention to DD6. Once we told her how much DS loved her, she really played it up. DS asked if he could give her a kiss, and she said of course. Then she gave him a big kiss on the cheek. He was blushing! Then, he also got kissy face from Mulan, Aurora, and Jasmine! He was covered with lipstick when we left! It was priceless!

We later saw Mulan in front of China. We also saw Belle with Beast in France. Belle mentioned to my DD that she remembered seeing her at breakfast that morning. Totally shocked me, considering how many children they see each day! We also saw Mary Poppins on the Characters on Holiday bus.

Have fun!

I asked DS if he would rather eat with Cinderella or a whole bunch of princesses, and he said "a whole bunch of princesses, can I kiss them all?" So we now have PS for the new Princess Storybook Lunch in Norway! If you are interested in this experience, it is still pretty easy to get PS for because not a lot of people know about it yet (same for the dinner). The breakfast for the day we are going was booked, but for lunch and dinner I pretty much had my choice of times. Thank you for all of the advice, even DH is excited about it!
