Pixie Hollow is set to reopen to guests on June 29, bringing back the charm and magic that fans have been missing. This popular meet-and-greet area, located between the Matterhorn Bobsleds and Astro Orbiter, offers a perfect escape into the fairy world of Tinker Bell and her companions.

For those who have never experienced this space, Pixie Hollow is a picturesque and immersive area where guests can interact with some of the most beloved characters from Disney’s Tinker Bell series, including fairies like Fawn, Periwinkle, and Silvermist.
The closure of Pixie Hollow for the past nine months was a significant shift for Disneyland visitors, who adored the chance to meet these delightful characters. Though the space remained empty for months, construction walls around the area gradually came down, hinting that something was in the works.
Disney confirmed that Pixie Hollow would reopen in stages, with Tinker Bell likely to be the first to greet guests. Over time, more fairies may return to complete the magical experience. While the specific line-up of fairies is still unknown, this exciting return is sure to delight Disney fans.
The re-opening hours for Pixie Hollow are also exciting news for Disneyland guests. The area will be available for meet-and-greets from 8:15 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. and again from 11:15 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. However, Pixie Hollow will be closed every Tuesday and Thursday, as well as on Sunday, August 3 and Monday, August 4.
This schedule allows for a chance to catch up with Tinker Bell and possibly other fairies, while also ensuring that the area remains a peaceful and well-maintained space for visitors.
For Disneyland fans, this reopening marks an important milestone as Pixie Hollow’s charm is restored to its rightful place in the park. It’s not just a meet-and-greet; it’s an experience that captures the whimsy and magic that Disneyland does best.
