Walt Disney World Resort’s Magic Kingdom Park is easily the most iconic — and probably the most popular — theme park at the Resort. From the goosebumps Guests get seeing Cinderella Castle at the end of Main Street, U.S.A., to riding quintessential attractions like “it’s a small world” and Haunted Mansion, to enjoying classic snacks like a Dole Whip or a Mickey Premium Bar. There are also a number of amazing characters Guests can meet while visiting the Magic Kingdom. And now, after more than two years, one of those great character meet-and-greets is finally returning!

Pete’s Silly Sideshow returns on Jan. 15! ? ⭐ Circus stars Minnie Magnifique, Daisy Fortuna, The Astounding Donaldo, and The Great Goofini are ready to shine under the Big Top at Magic Kingdom!

Here’s more on the fun character meetings that you will have at Pete’s Silly Sideshow.

Run off and join the circus with Donald Duck and Goofy, who are waiting to meet you under the Big Top.

The Silliest Circus in Town

Step right up and say hello to the stars of this slapstick circus: snake charmer extraordinaire The Astounding Donaldo and his daring stuntman pal The Great Goofini.

Walt Disney World’s new Fantasyland expansion opened in 2012, as more room was needed to accommodate all the Guests who flocked to the area daily. The new area included a second Dumbo The Flying Elephant attraction, along with Enchanted Tales With Belle, Be Our Guest Restaurant, and so much more.

Reservations are not needed to meet The Great Goofini and his friends, but there is a chance that many people will be excited to see the characters return, so there could be a wait.
