Elena of Avalor at Disney World

[sagelily]

Hi everyone, we are headed to Disney mid-August and my kids just told me that the Disney Channel announed that Elena of Avalor is going to be there starting this summer. I quickly did some research but am not seeing many specifics about when she would start appearing. It looks like she will be in Magic Kingdom but no exact date has been set. There are Fastpass options to meet Cinderella and a visiting princess or Rapunzel and a visiting princess. I was not planning on doing either of those because we have reservations for the Princess character meals. Does anyone have thoughts on whether Elena would appear with either Cinderella or Rapunzel or whether it will be somewhere completely different? Should I just wait for a week or two and see if more details are released? Thanks in advance!

I don't believe any specifics have been announced other than something like a coronation 8/11 at 11am, although I may have missed something.

I doubt Elena will be in fairy tale hall. I could see them putting her somewhere like Tiana's old spot in the gazebo.

That's all the info there was as of this morning. I've been stalking the Disney message boards because my kids are obsessed.

My DD is obsessed with this show, so now I've become obsessed with following the info about this haha.

Thank you all! My kids are obsessed too, so I will post an update if I hear anything else. Someone told me yesterday that Kohls has clothes with Elena on them, but I haven't had a chance to check it out yet.
