As previously announced, the live-action Ariel meet and greet has moved to a new location at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Ariel Meet & Greet
Ariel’s temporary meet and greet location has moved from Walt Disney Presents to Echo Lake, near 50’s Prime Time Cafe. This change started today, October 28. It’s unclear how long she will meet here.
Her previous space was located at Walt Disney Presents and was styled to look like the terrace of Prince Eric’s seaside castle. However, her new space is hardly themed at all. A row of tall potted plants are placed behind her, and a wooden box/treasure chest sits on the ground.
The My Disney Experience app still has her location listed as Walt Disney Presents. As she meets intermittently throughout the day, her schedule is not currently listed.
Update: Since our original post, the My Disney Experience app has now been updated to list Ariel’s new meet and greet location as “Echo Lake, Near Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular!” The app also lists select appearance times.
Recently, a new preview center for the many upcoming Walt Disney World projects was installed at Walt Disney Presents.
Ariel also meets as her cartoon self in her grotto at Magic Kingdom.
