Just over two weeks ago, Disney announced the new and returning characters for this year’s edition of Disney Jollywood Nights. An announcement earlier this week, outlined the new and returning offerings coming to Disney Jollywood Nights 2024, including an opportunity to meet The Mandalorian at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. As of today, more changes have been made to the character lineup.

Joy from the “Inside Out” films will be appearing at Pixar Place during this year’s event. In June of this year, she started greeting guests in Pixar Plaza, replacing Frozone.

Other changes include Baloo and King Louie no longer appearing together at Echo Lake, Donald Duck and Daisy Duck moving their meeting location from near Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway to Pixar Plaza with Goofy and Pluto, and Mickey Mouse joining Minnie Mouse at Red Carpet Dreams.
