Where were Pooh and Friends last Holiday season?

[Mamato4boys]

Hello everyone! I asked this on the Holiday Superthread and was told that last year, with Santa taking over their Meet and Greet spot, Pooh and Friends were found at the Plaza Inn character breakfast, but I am hoping someone knows whether or not they could be found elsewhere.

Meeting Pooh is at the top of our must do list, but I am hoping we can find him without the character meal (we can only fit one into our budget and we were hoping for Surfs Up). All of this, of course, assuming they put Santa back in Critter Country again this year.

I know it is really early and I should just be patient, but I am already in super planning mode... we only make it to DLR once every 2-3 years, so I'm anxious to plan the perfect trip... or, as close to perfect as managing 4 boys in a theme park for 5 days straight can possibly be.

Thank in advance for any help!

As far as I recall, during the holiday season, while Santa was at the Critter Country meet and greet location, Winnie the Pooh and friends did not have a regular meet and greet location. I did not see them out and about in the parks. Hopefully they'll find a new place for them this upcoming year, but I wouldn't be surprised if DLR did the same thing in 2016 as they did in 2015. Good luck!

The Parks Blog confirmed that Winnie the Pooh and friends would not be greeting guests during this time: "Winnie the Pooh and his friends are taking the holidays off to spend with Christopher Robin, but they’ll be back after Christmas."

Oh, bummer! But thank you so much for the response! Here's to hoping something will be different... or that they will at least be at the character breakfast!

We have always seen several Pooh characters at the Plaza Inn breakfast. I think they are pretty predictable there. Typically Pooh, Tigger and Eeyore.

Yes, they were in Plaza Inn for breakfast but otherwise unavailable while Santa was visiting

Good to know that they are fairly reliably at the Plaza Inn breakfast! I think I will start looking into visiting there instead of Surf's Up. Thank you everyone!
