Tips For Meeting Anna and Elsa - Updated

UPDATE: On April 20, 2014, Anna and Elsa moved to their new Meet & Greet home at Princess Fairytale Hall at the Magic Kingdom. They have currently been there for a few weeks and the lines to see them have been just as long as ever. The big benefit to this new location, however, is that it is FastPass+ enabled. FastPasses for these two are not always easy to come by, though. So, if it's at all possible, make sure to log onto MyDisneyExperience.com or the MyDisneyExperience app 60 days prior to your trip if you will be staying at a Disney World Resort Hotel, or 30 days in advance of your park visit, if you're not staying at Disney World this time, but you have already purchased park tickets (and linked them to your Disney Account online).

Disney's Frozen stars, Anna and Elsa, are the hottest meet and greet at Walt Disney World right now. In fact, they are probably the most popular of any attraction or show at all, at the moment. They meet at the Norway Pavilion in Epcot's World Showcase and, because folks are so wild about meeting them, the line can get up to 4 1/2 hours long at times! Disney has been playing around with the times that this meet is open, to try to keep lines down, so be sure to check the Times Guide, when you first arrive at Epcot for the day.

Currently, the recommendation is that folks who would like to meet Anna and Elsa head to see them right at park opening - the earlier, the better.

When my family and I met Disney's newest celebs, we had about a 2 hour wait. What we did is, split up. My wife got in line with my youngest, while I took the older two on Soarin'. My trio then headed off to Norway, picked up my daughter, and the four of us headed back to Future World, where we enjoyed Journey Into Imagination with Figment and Spaceship Earth (while my wife enjoyed a little quiet time). Then, it was back to meet up with my wife again, where we only had about 30 min. to wait before the big moment. Plans like this are made really easy because Cast Members can let you know how long the wait will be, based on your position in line.

Don't want to split up? You can always do what we have done with other long meets in the past - grab some food and eat a quick-service meal or snack, right there in line. You'll be able to stay together, keep busy while you're waiting, and feel refreshed and ready to tackle the rest of your day once you say goodbye to the Royalty of Arendelle!
