New Meet & Greet with Olaf to Debut at Disney’s Hollywood Studios This Spring

Walt Disney World Press Release
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla.
February 16, 2016

For the first time in forever, a new character experience with everyone’s favorite snowman, Olaf, debuts this spring at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. From Disney’s blockbuster film “Frozen,” Olaf will be living his dream “In Summer,” chilling on the beach and ready with warm hugs for all his friends. He’ll greet guests in the all-new Celebrity Spotlight in the Echo Lake area of Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

This new opportunity to meet Olaf is just one location at Walt Disney World Resort where guests can immerse themselves in the magic of the blockbuster film, “Frozen”. Also at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, guests can join the Royal Historians of Arendelle at “For the First Time in Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration” for a funny and comedic retelling of the unique story of the kingdom, with special appearances by Anna, Elsa and Kristoff.

At Magic Kingdom, Anna and Elsa can be seen every day in the Festival of Fantasy parade. And this summer, Epcot, the Frozen Ever After attraction will transport guests to Arendelle just in time for “Summer Snow Day” celebration, while Princess Anna and Queen Elsa will greet guests at the Royal Sommerhus – both at the Norway Pavilion in World Showcase.

The new Olaf Meet and Greet is expected to be located behind the current construction near the WDW Radio Studio facade.

Olaf hasn't been a meet & greet character at WDW yet? Wow. He has been at Disneyland for a long time. I didn't realize he hadn't made his way out there yet.
