Disney Fairies Week Limited Time Magic at The Magic Kingdom, Mad Hatter and Alice, Princess Merida Surprise Epcot Meets, Monsters University Topiary Gargoyles – Photos and Video

Hi everyone!

This week’s Limited Time Magic offering is “Celebrate Fairies Week”, with Tinker Bell greeting with more of her fairy friends in Tinker Bell’s Magical Nook than usual. This location tends to have long waits most of the time (Space Mountain had a 25 minute stand-by wait when Tinker Bell’s Magical Nook was holding steady at an hour).

TOL 719 TOL 720

We went through three times, hoping to meet Iridessa and Silvermist – they didn’t appear while we were there – with the first wait being 20 minutes at before 10am, and then about a half hour, and then 45 minutes. Early is best to meet the fairies! Terence and Vidia joke with each other (below, left). Fawn and Tinker Bell pose for a photo (below, right).

We had a great time meeting the fairies (below, left), and always enjoy seeing characters that aren’t around too often. We each received a Limited Time Magic card (below, right), with the fairy names. Periwinkle signed it, but she isn’t supposed to be appearing.

Video #1 – Disney Fairies Week w/ Tinker Bell, Fawn, Vidia, Rosetta & Terence – Limited Time Magic – This week’s Limited Time Magic offers more fairy friends in Tinker Bell’s nook! Tinker Bell, Fawn, Terence, Vidia and Rosetta are all here. Iridessa and Silvermist are meeting guests this week as well. There is no set schedule – we went through 3 times, and 4 fairies were available each time to meet.

At Epcot, the Monsters University topiary continues to receive enhancements! Gargoyles (below, left) now guard the entrance to Monsters University. From the back, you can get a great view of the monorail (below, right).

Video #2 – Monsters University Topiary with Gargoyles, Mike Wazowski & Sully, Epcot Flower & Garden – Gargoyles now join Mike Wazowski and Sully topiary at the Epcot Flower & Garden Festival to promote the upcoming Disney/Pixar film Monsters University!

We were very excited to meet the Mad Hatter, who we really never see in the parks except during parades. Here (below, left), he holds a Mad Hatter Duffy bear that a guest handed to him. The Mad Hatter poses for us with Alice (below, right).

Denise always like to get photos of me videotaping the characters (below, left). The Mad Hatter came in close! We posed with the Mad Hatter and Alice before they went running and twirling away (below, right). This is one of my all time favorite character interactions!

Video #3 – Mad Hatter and Alice Surprise Meet & Greet at Epcot United Kingdom Pavilion, Alice in Wonderland – We had the wonderful opportunity to meet the Mad Hatter today, along with Alice! They both were quite chatty, and we all were celebrating Unbirthdays! Alice normally greets here, The Mad Hatter is a rare character. This is one of my all time favorite videos.

Princess Merida from the Disney/Pixar film BRAVE was also in Epcot at the International Gateway for her surprise meet and greet! She seemed to be wearing a different outfit than what she wore when we first met her in this very place last year (photos and video HERE). We always enjoy meeting the characters and especially these surprise greetings!
