If you are like us, then you’re probably totally in love with the free-spirited Mirabel Madrigal from the Disney movie Encanto. She’s an absolute treat and her, along with her Uncle Bruno, are part of what makes that movie so popular with fans of *all* ages.
Disney has recently added some opportunities for fans of Encanto to meet Mirabel, plus, if you’re traveling during the right time of the year, you’ll get to meet Bruno, too!
Here’s where to find all your Encanto favorites at Disney World:
¡Celebración Encanto! Sing-Along at Epcot (Summer 2024)
There is a brand-new way to catch your Encanto favorites this summer.
From June 10 through September 6 you’ll be able to sing along with your favorite Encanto songs on the newly opened CommuniCore Plaza stage.
Disney has even teased that both Mirabel and Bruno will make appearances, too!
All we know right now is that the show will run several times each day, but we plan to be there for the first show and will have all the details soon.
Meet Mirabel at Fairytale Garden
If you want to meet Mirabel face-to-face, one of the best ways is at Magic Kingdom where The Fairytale Garden (once home to Merida) is now home to a Mirabel meet-and-greet.
But it is more than just a standard meet-and-greet because the entire area has been transformed into a lush, tropical garden – just like the movie!
On most days she typically meets from park opening until mid-afternoon, so don’t wait too long in the day, or you might miss her.
Dine with Mirabel at 1900 Park Fare
Mirabel has also found a home at 1900 Park Fare. She’s there alongside her other “wishing” friends (Tiana, Aladdin, and Cinderella) for breakfast and dinner.
Like most character meals, this one can be difficult to snag, so make sure you plan ahead so you can get a reservation.
Bruno and Mirabel at Special Events
For the first time ever, Bruno is making an appearance with Mirabel at this year’s Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party.
We don’t have many details quite yet, but since Mirabel has greeted both Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party guests the past year in the Fairytale Garden, we expect that he’ll be joining her there.
Catch Bruno in the Disney Adventure Friends Cavalcade
Although most cavalcades in the parks are gone, the Disney Adventure Friends one remains in the Magic Kingdom, and Bruno makes his appearance high atop a float on this fun little mini parade:

Fascinating to see how Disney's incorporating 'Encanto' characters into the parks. Mirabel's appearance marks a significant shift towards embracing new stories. Historically, it's taken years for newer characters to get this kind of attention. It'll be interesting to see how quickly other 'Encanto' characters join her.

Disneyland still gets everything SO much faster, but we're grateful to have them at Disney World now.

Interesting to see Bruno stepping into the limelight. Any chance we'll see more 'Encanto' characters at Epcot's summer sing-along?

The idea of dining with Mirabel at 1900 Park Fare is simply delightful! Combining characters from different stories sounds like a magical breakfast or dinner experience. Has anyone here tried it yet? Would love to hear some stories!
