Can you meet Pooh at EPCOT?

Winnie the Pooh Meet & Greet Returns to Christopher Robin's Room at EPCOT. There is one less physically distanced encounter at Walt Disney World with the reopening of the Winnie the Pooh meet & greet space in the United Kingdom Pavilion at EPCOT.



Yes, you can meet Winnie the Pooh at EPCOT in 2026, where he has a permanent meet-and-greet location in the United Kingdom Pavilion within the World Showcase. Specifically, the "Silly Old Bear" greets guests inside a charming recreation of Christopher Robin’s room, which is tucked away toward the back of the pavilion, behind the Toy Soldier gift shop. This indoor location provides a cozy, themed backdrop for photos and autographs, often featuring details like Pooh's honey pots and drawings from the Hundred Acre Wood. Unlike some other characters who may roam, Pooh typically follows a set daily schedule, with appearances often beginning mid-morning and continuing through the afternoon. Because meet-and-greet times can vary depending on park hours and special events, it is highly recommended to check the My Disney Experience app on the morning of your visit to confirm his exact appearance times and ensure you don't miss the chance for a "warm hug" from everyone's favorite bear.
