The Closest You’ll Get to Mickey and Friends NOT in a Disney World Restaurant

Spotting characters in a reopened Disney World tends to be a fun surprise.

Mickey and Minnie

Between the character cavalcades and random character encounters in the park, waving to our favorite Disney pals is a pretty magical experience. Recently, we spotted some adorable new encounters with Donald and Chip & Dale, and now two more fa-MOUSE faces have popped up somewhere unexpected!

We were leaving EPCOT today when we were surprised with a visit from Mickey and Minnie themselves!

Mickey and Minnie!

The Mouse couple strolled out in the entrance area near Spaceship Earth.

In fact, Mickey parked it right next to the Spaceship Earth mural!

The duo proceeded to wave and interact with guests from a distance, and of course, snap some distanced selfies.

Minnie Mouse

Cast Members were around letting folks know that there is no line, but they do need to remain distanced.

What a treat to see Mickey and Minnie!

But, they aren’t the only ones we got to see… .

Goofy

Yup, after Mickey and Minnie said goodbye, Pluto and Goofy came out to say hello to everyone!

Of course, Goofy is wearing his classic orange shirt and green hat combo.

It was a delight to get to see ALL FOUR of these characters.

And all we had to do was stick around a little bit longer as we headed out of the park.

Cast Members let us know that while Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, and Pluto are meeting here, the only cavalcades around World Showcase are the Princess Cavalcade and the Frozen Cavalcade. After all, the characters are busy!
