It's fair to say that live entertainment and characters are one of the most loved parts of a Walt Disney World holiday. It brings me joy to share with you Disney's announcement that more character meet and greets are soon returning to Walt Disney World.

Firstly, Star Wars Launch Bay is returning July 17th, which will mean the return of the Chewbacca, BB-8, and Darth Vader meet and greets.

Second, Mirabel (from Encanto) will making her debut in the "Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade" on June 26! She'll join Miguel from "Coco," Nick and Judy from "Zootopia," Max, Goof, Moana and more as this super-sized cavalcade winds through the Magic Kingdom several times each day.

Third, the return of more meet and greets! Minnie Mouse will join Mickey Mouse starting on July 6 in Town Square Theater at Magic Kingdom Park. Both will be ready for hugs and photos in their EARidescent fashions designed specifically for the Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary celebration! July 6 also marks the return of Chip 'N Dale's Campfire Sing-A-Long at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground. On July 10, keep an eye out for familiar Fantasyland friends Peter Pan and Snow White as they greet guests at Magic Kingdom Park once again.

Lastly, in the coming months this summer, a visit to Magic Kingdom Park will bring chances to meet Aladdin, Jasmine, Merida, Pooh, Tigger and Storybook Circus pals like The Great Goofini in Pete's Silly Sideshow. Your favorite toys will be ready for playtime in Toy Story Land at Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Donald Duck and friends will rejoin their prehistoric party at "Donald's Dino-Bash!" in DinoLand U.S.A. at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park.
