Where are the characters in the Disneyland Resort?

Many people feel a trip to Disneyland Resort is not complete unless they get to see their favorite character. Yet many people leave Disneyland without getting to experience this magical event. The key to meeting your favorite character is knowing where to find them in the first place!!

The first place to look for them is as soon as you walk into the park. A lot of the time the characters are just inside the gates waiting to say good morning to the guests.

Another place to look for your favorite character is where they live. Where is that, you ask? Well in Toontown of course! Here you will find Mickey's House, Minnie's House, Chip n' Dale Treehouse, Donald's Boat, and Goofy's Playhouse. In addition to getting to see how they live you will hopefully get to meet them. Once you've been through Toontown, I recommend you take a stroll through Fantasyland, including the new Princess Fantasy Faire. Different characters can be found telling stories and visiting throughout.

One more way to meet the characters is with a character meal. There are many different character meals to choose from at Disneyland Resort. You can choose from the Plaza Inn at Disneyland Park, Ariel's Grotto at Disney's California Adventure Park, Goofy's Kitchen at the Disneyland Hotel, Storyteller's Cafe at Disney's Grand Californian Hotel, and the PCH Grill at Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel.

Lastly, if you've followed all the above tips and you still can't find your favorite character- ask a cast member! They can usually tell you when, where and if your favorite character will be out and about that day.
