    Question Character meet & greets at EPCOT

    Does anyone know where the "character spot" is at EPCOT. I saw Samantha Brown on the Travel Channel visit it and for the life of me do not know where it is.

    I'm not sure about where Samantha was (didn't see it), but there is a character bus that rides around WS and stops near the twin gift shops on the north side of the lagoon. I ran into them on accident once, and my wife and I were the only ones there. It was great.

    It's right when you come after passing the ball...turn to the left and pass the water fountain and it's on the right. Sorry I am not really sure what the exact name of the section is. But it's really nice...it's like on the way to Test Track.

    Are you sure about that? Last November it was the opposite direction - towards the Land. The big gift shop is on the way to Test Track. The point is, when you're at the fountain behind Spaceship Earth, the character meet n greet is next to Innoventions.

    There use to be a meet and greet inside Innoventions for Disney Visa members. Is this still there? You would show your Disney Visa card, go into a private area and get your picture taken with the charactors. You also got a free picture.

    The meet and greet is on the right after you enter Future World, on the way to the Land/Living Seas. If you know where the Fountainview Cafe and the Coca-Cola place (used to be Ice Station Cool) are, that's the right area. You can't miss it. If you walk in the covered walkway toward the Land from Future World, Innoventions will be on your right and the characters are on the left. You can see them through the windows. This used to be a place where they did seminars, shows and things but now it is the meet and greet area.

    The character caravan bus is no longer there. The character meet & greet for Disney Visa cardholders is still in effect inside Innoventions. (I forget if it is east or west....also its only open certain hours, be sure & check.) The big character gathering is on the way to the land, on your left. It kind of adjoins Club Cool.
