One of the many conveniences involved in staying on property at the Walt Disney World Resort is the ability to purchase a Disney Dining plan. Included in this prepaid dining package is a mix of snacks, quick service and table service meals. If you have kids, a great option for spending a few of your table service credits is on Disney World character dining meals.
Disney World character meals include more than just food. With each of these special meals, you get the added bonus of some of your favorite Disney movie and TV characters stopping by your table to sign autographs and take pictures with your child (and you, if you are so inclined).
Here is a rundown of the current Disney World Character Meals opportunities. If you are interested in participating in any of them, I would strongly recommend making reservations as soon as you can. In most cases, you can make a reservation up to 180 days out and most character meals book fast, so don’t delay!
