Minnie Mouse is on the move at EPCOT, as her time meeting guests at the front of the park near to Spaceship Earth comes to a close.

Beginning Sunday January 2 2022, you will be able to meet Minnie Mouse at the gazebo in World Showcase Plaza near to the Mexico pavilion.

The gazebo was originally built as a home for Duffy the Disney Bear

Since the park reopened from the COVID shutdown, Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse originally appeared in a cavalcade, and then later moved to the main entrance beneath Spaceship Earth.

Mickey Mouse made the move to the Imagination pavilion in late 2021, leaving Minnie, Goofy and Pluto at the front of the park.

Don't they test shows every year?

I'm not sure if they would need to test the NYE show much? I don't think it's changed...

FITS NYE? I would think TDO would work on that before DE 2025.

Does anyone know what Disney was doing last night in terms of fireworks testing? At about 3:45 in the morning I was awoken by the sounds of a fireworks launch, closer to the ones that happened during the Castle show than anything else. I heard a few more over the next 5 minutes before finally getting back to sleep... Not exactly sure what it is about, maybe Enchanted testing for the parties in the new year?

I believe they are hired by different departments but they could potentially do both. Some of the former boardwalk jugglers performed at both the boardwalk and storybook circus for a while.

Actually I saw casting call for both. Hopefully more entertainment is coming. It really isnt that hard to cast for this because in some cases I know people who still live locally and have done those roles previously. C'mon Disney, let's do this!! Marie
