Can You Meet Cinderella at Disney World?
There are a few different locations where you will find Cinderella at WDW. You can meet and see her at the following locations.
Cinderella’s Royal Table
Location: Magic Kingdom
This hugely popular dining experience is held at Cinderella’s Royal Table restaurant which is located inside the actual castle at Magic Kingdom. Be warned that this can be a difficult dining reservation to get on My Disney Experience due to it being the only dining experience offered inside the castle.
When character dining is being held a host of princesses appear. Cinderella herself meets guests (for a photo) as you enter the grand hall along with Snow White, Aurora, Jasmine and Ariel who appear when you are dining upstairs in the restaurant.
You can get a really great photo when you meet Cinderella as you enter the restaurant inside Cinderella Castle. This is a signature dining reservation too and the food is of very high quality. I have enjoyed both Breakfast and Dinner at Cinderella’s royal table over the years, with dinner being exceptional.
Princess Fairytale Hall
Location in Park: Magic Kingdom (Fantasyland – behind Cinderella Castle)
Behind Cinderella castle you will find the Disney Princesses Fairytale Hall. Princess Cinderella can often be found inside the Princess Fairytale Hall along with other princesses for a character meet and photo opportunity.
Princess Cinderella is the permanent character who you can meet here with other Disney Princesses appearing as guest visitors. There will be signs outside of the Fairytale Hall telling you which Princesses are visiting Cinderella on the day. The visiting princess will change day to day in the theme park.
You will find the Fairytale Hall right behind Cinderella’s castle to you right hand side as you enter Fantasyland from the hub.
Festival of Fantasy Parade
Location: Magic Kingdom (Parade Route)
During the afternoon at Magic Kingdom Princess Cinderella and Prince Charming feature in the Princess Garden float with several other princesses that leads the Festival of Fantasy Parade as it makes its way through Magic Kingdom in the afternoon.
The Parade starts from Frontierland next to Splash Mountain making its way to Liberty Square, onto the hub and then through Main Street USA where it concludes by passing through the gates beside the Town Square Firehouse.
The Princess Garden Float Features:
- Princess Tiana and Prince Prince Naveen
- Belle and the Beast
- Anna and Elsa
The Christmas Parade
Location: Magic Kingdom Parade Route
Princess Cinderella also appears in the Magic Kingdom Christmas parade that you see throughout the holiday season at Disney World. She appears in horse drawn carriage with her Prince Charming. If you are visiting Walt Disney World during the holidays be sure watch this parade as it if full of great floats and lots of great Disney characters.
Fantasmic
Location: Hollywood Studios
Cinderella is part of the large cast of characters that appear in Disney World’s Fantasmic Show at Hollywood Studios. This is a great evening show where you take a trip through the dreams of Mickey Mouse.
Mickey starts out as the Sorcerer’s Apprentice only for a variety of Disney Villains to invade his dreams and turn them into nightmares. Mickey must win the battle with the power of his imagination.
With over 50 performers, projections, water and fireworks the Fantasmic is a must see show and it is like no other show you will see at Disney World.
Cinderella’s Happily Ever After Dinner
Location: 1900 Park Fare Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
Another table service dining experience but this time located at Disney’s Grand Floridian resort. You can enjoy a buffet dinner at 1900 Park Fare in the company of Cinderella, Prince Charming as well as Lady Tremaine, Anastasia and Drizella.
Expect a selection of seafoods, pasta, meats and kid-friendly fare such as chicken, cheese pizza and macaroni and cheese.
Can I See Other Characters from Cinderella at Walt Disney World Resort
As I have mentioned above you can see Prince Charming alongside Cinderella in the Disney World parades and at 1900 Park Fare.
Cinderella’s Step Mother Lady Tremaine along with Anastasia and Drizella will appear throughout the day for a character meet with guests in Fantasyland.
If you are lucky you might also bump into Cinderella’s Fairy God Mother in Magic Kingdom park. She also appears from time to time to meet guests for photographs and autographs. We have been lucky enough to meet her in the past and it was a wonderful experience for our children.
Is Cinderella at Epcot?
You will find Cinderella at Epcot but only if you make a dining reservation at the correct restaurant. Let’s take a look…
Akershus Royal Banquet Hall
Location: Norway Pavilion (Epcot World Showcase)
Akershus Royal banquet Hall is a little easier to get a reservation for compared to Cinderella’s Royal Table and the good news is Cinderella can also be found here too. She appears alongside: Belle, Snow White, Aurora and Ariel in this great Princess storybook dining experience at Epcot.
What About the Other Disney Parks?
Sadly you won’t find Cinderella at Disney’s Hollywood Studios or at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Magic Kingdom and Epcot are the main Disney parks that focus on the Disney Princesses at Walt Disney World Resort.
Is There a Cinderella Ride at Walt Disney World Resort?
There isn’t a Cinderella based ride attraction at Walt Disney World. You do however have Cinderella’s Castle at magic Kingdom which has some wonderful glass mosaics to see inside as you pass through to Fantasyland.
Of course, the famous Disney castle is also a great photo opportunity for all of the guests at the park.
There is also Prince Charming’s Regal Carousel behind the castle to ride as well. You cannot not have a spin on the magnificent looking carousel and horses as you enter Fantasyland.
