    Disney Junior’s ‘Fancy Nancy’ Meet & Greet Coming to Hollywood Studios

    Nancy Clancy, the high-spirited young girl from Disney Junior’s hit animated series “Fancy Nancy,” is making “une grande entrée” into Disney Parks this spring!

    Just in time for the 30th anniversary of Disney’s Hollywood Studios on May 1, you’ll be able to find Nancy at an all-new character greeting location in the park’s Animation Courtyard, where she’ll be meeting all her friends in front of her backyard playhouse. Nancy will also soon be part of the breakfast-time fun during Disney Junior Play ‘n Dine at Hollywood & Vine, the place to eat, play and laugh along with favorite Disney Junior friends including Vampirina, Doc McStuffins and Roadster Racer Goofy.

    Later in May, Nancy will be heading to Disneyland Resort, too! There, you’ll get to see her just outside the “Disney Junior Dance Party!” in Hollywood Land at Disney California Adventure park.

    Disney Junior’s animated family comedy “Fancy Nancy” follows six-year-old Nancy, whose imagination and enthusiasm for all that is exquisite transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary – from her vast vocabulary to her creative and elaborate attire. Nancy uses ingenuity and resourcefulness to exemplify that even if life doesn’t always go as planned, it’s important to make the most of each day and encourage others to do the same.

    “Fancy Nancy” airs weekdays on Disney Channel and daily on Disney Junior, and is also available in the DisneyNOW app.

  • Disney’s ‘Elsa’ Arrested in Illinois for Bringing Subzero Temperatures

    Disney’s ‘Elsa’ Arrested in Illinois for Bringing Subzero Temperatures

    The frozen weather in the Midwest has caused an Illinois police department to take drastic action. For the first time in forever, a Disney character — Elsa, the Queen of Arendell — was handcuffed and taken to jail. And police won’t let her go until the weather heats up.

    “Due to the EXTREME COLD weather, all criminal activity and acts of stupidity and foolishness has been canceled … Even Elsa has been placed under arrest with NO BOND until further notice,” police officials said.

    In a tongue-in-cheek post on Facebook, the McLean Police Department posted photographs of an officer “arresting” Elsa, complete with pink handcuffs as you can see in the post below.

    Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker issued a disaster warning Tuesday ahead of the “potentially historic” double-digit subzero temperatures in the state.

  • Maleficent Float Returns To Festival of Fantasy Parade at Magic Kingdom

    Maleficent Float Returns To Festival of Fantasy Parade at Magic Kingdom

    As we previously reported, The Maleficent Dragon float would be returning to the Festival of Fantasy Parade at the Magic Kingdom and it looks like the time is finally here!

    Disney has confirmed that everyone’s favorite villain, Maleficent, is returning to Magic Kingdom Park today to re-take her rightful place in the parade.

    The float was removed from the parade back in May after it burst into flames as the parade strolled through the park. The head of the dragon spits flames and apparently malfunctioned. Take a look at the video below to see the incident.

    The fire was quickly extinguished after it broke out and there were no reports of injuries.

    While she still has her same Steampunk style and signature wicked smile, the Maleficent dragon will be sporting a refreshed look, enhanced with new features designed to keep her in check while on show.

    When I met Edna I made sure to be well dressed, as I didn’t want to be scolded by the demanding designer. I think she approved of my dress!
