“A Princess Royal Reception” Comes to Disney Springs This October

Posted on
A one-month, limited-time offering debuted on October 1 at the World of Disney at Disney Springs Marketplace. "A Princess Royal Reception" takes place at the store intermittently between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. each day featuring a visiting Disney princess -- Cinderella, Snow White, Aurora, Tiana or another. There are no set times for specific characters. A Disney PhotoPass photographer is on hand to capture each interaction, and the photos are available for guests to purchase or download as part of their Memory Maker product purchase. When you arrive at the World of Disney, check in for the experience and a cast member will tell you the approximate wait time and return instructions. When it is time for you to return to the queue, you'll be moments away from meeting a Disney Princess. The royal reception will run through November 1.
