Princess Fairytale Hall is now THE place to meet your favorite Disney Princesses. During the preview we were asked if we wanted to meet Cinderella or Rapunzel…we chose Rapunzel. Most of the media chose Rapunzel too! We had to wait about a half hour to see Rapunzel while the Cinderella line was much shorter.

The attention to detail is amazing, as always. The building is an addition to the castle where Cinderella can visit with the other princesses and receive guests throughout the day. The windows, light fixtures and wall hangings are all very regal yet not over done. In the last section of the queue the wall are adorned with beautiful portraits of some of the Disney Princesses.

Just before you enter the meet and greet area, beautifully displayed, is Cinderella’s glass slipper!

We were excited when we entered the meet and greet space and found Snow White waiting to meet us also!

My friend John from BigFatPanda.com shot this video of his visit to Princess Fairytale Hall and I thought you might like to see it.

I think Princess Fairytale Hall is a great addition to Fantasyland. It will be a very popular spot so I do suggest adding it to your Fastpass+ while planning your visit to the Magic Kingdom.

Meet & Greets

Currently, you can meet the princesses, Snow White included in Town Hall at the Magic Kingdom. Of course this location is busy first thing in the morning and last thing at night. We tend to take an afternoon break and ride the Walt Disney World Railway around the park. If you hop off the train at Main Street Station you can visit the princesses in Town Hall and then hop back on the train and continue on to your next destination. Occasionally Snow White will visit the Princess Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner at Cinderella’s Royal Table, also in the Magic Kingdom.

In Epcot you can meet Snow White in Germany, check your times guide for when she will be appearing. Snow White also appears at the Princess Storybook Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner  at Akershus Castle Royal Banquet Hall in the Norway Pavilion at Epcot.

Shows/Attractions/Parades

In the Magic Kingdom, Snow White appears in the Dream Along with Mickey show that takes place several times a day at the Castle Forecourt. She is also in the Disney Dreams Come True parade each afternoon and the Main Street Electrical Parade in the evenings.

Snow White also appears in Fantasmic! at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

Character meet & greet times and locations change often so always check your Times Guide or stop at Guest services and ask for help locating your favorite Disney character.

Mirror Mirror features breakout star Lily Collins (The Blind Side) as Snow White, a princess in exile, and Oscar®-winner Julia Roberts as the evil Queen who ruthlessly rules her captured kingdom. Seven courageous dwarfs join forces with Snow White as she fights to reclaim her birthright and win her Prince in this magical adventure comedy filled with whimsy, romance, and magic. The film also stars Armie Hammer (The Social Network) as the Prince, and Nathan Lane (The Birdcage) as the hapless and bungling servant to the Queen.

Take a look at the trailer, it looks interesting to me.

We arrived earlier than necessary and were quickly able to retrieve our tickets from the will call window. Since it was a comfortable Florida Sunday afternoon we found a table to sit at outside the Forum while we waited for the doors to open for the 5:30pm show.

At about 4:45pm we entered the Forum and found our seats. They use less than 1/4 of the Forum space for the show which made the setting feel more intimate. M was excited for the show to start and he waited very patiently for a 4 year old.

As the show began there was an announcement that no photos or video could be taken. This was different than what we had been told when we went through the bag check at security-they said no video or flash photography. I decided to take my cue from the masses and took some photos without flash…until I heard a security person speak to people behind me about putting their camera away I do think the man in front of me video taped the entire show without getting caught!

The show was delightful and entertaining and kept the interest of everyone present. Mickey and Minnie were joined by Goofy, Donald Duck, 2 magicians, the Mad Hatter, Alice, the White Rabbit, the Queen of Hearts, Cinderella, Fairy Godmother, Prince Charming, Belle, Gaston, Snow White, the Evil Queen and Jasmine so there was something for every Disney fan to enjoy. There were musical numbers, magic tricks and some audience participation to round out this fun family show. I asked M what is favorite part was and he said: “Snow White, then the magic carpet (in the Aladdin scene), the cannon ball trick and then Jasmine floating in the air.”

If you are needing a Disney fix, or just want a fun family afternoon, I recommend a visit to Mickey’s Magic Show when it comes to a town near you!
