There’s Something DIFFERENT About Moana at Disney World (and We Think You’ll Love It)
We’ve got a new update in EPCOT to share with you and it’s quite a notable change!
EPCOT at Disney World has seen many changes recently, with extending its popular Encanto sing-along show, getting ready for the Festival of the Holidays to start soon, and even updating ride scenes in one of our favorite attractions. While this change might be a little more subtle than the last, it’s one we’re very excited about and it seems a lot of other folks are already, too!
It’s true that there’s a lot of NEW going around EPCOT right now and this next change we’ve spotted is one that everyone seems to be clamoring over! When Disney World announced that Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana would be coming to EPCOT’s World Nature, we figured that a Moana meet and greet wouldn’t be too far behind.
Then, shortly after, we DID finally have a second location to meet Moana and talk to her all about her journeys with Hei Hei, Pua, and the well-meaning Demi-God Maui. And, of course, she looked JUST like she did in her debut film.
Now that the theatrical release of Moana 2 is quickly approaching, Disney World has CHANGED Moana’s meet and greet! She now will meet you in the same outfit she’s sporting in Moana 2, the second movie to feature the voyager-descendant Disney princess. And we’ve gotta say we’re loving this new look for her!
This new outfit still shows off Moana’s signature tan, red, and burgundy colors in her skirt’s wrap but the top piece looks more festive and a bit more regal for the next village Chief in line!
But don’t be deceived by her new appearance — she’s still the same quirky, lovable Moana we all know at heart.
If you’re looking to say “hello” to Moana in person on your next Disney World visit, you can find her stationed at various times across the walkway from the Journey of Water, Inspired By Moana attraction’s entrance and adjacent to the Coral Reef Restaurant. Just check the My Disney Experience app throughout the day to see when you can expect her to be out. However, you’ll want to carve out some time as it is a super popular character experience right now.
It seems this new update for Moana has quickly become very popular and when we tried to visit her at 1:50PM her line was already so long, that the Cast Members assisting her had to cut the line for that particular meeting time before it ever began. Just looking at that line will tell you she’s in for telling stories about quite a few of her adventures this outing alone! We also overheard them telling folks to try again to visit her the next time she was scheduled to be out which was at 3PM.
