Today the Pixar Fest kicked up to another level with the opening of the marketplaces and also the arrival of two new characters. Meilin and Ming Lee from Disney and Pixar’s Turning Red are the new arrivals. They will be meeting with guests throughout Pixar Fest until its conclusion on August 4, 2024. They will be found near Grizzly Peak. According to the Disneyland App, they will be meeting from 10:30 AM until 3:00 PM. Be sure to check the times guide on either the Disneyland App or Disneyland website if you wish to meet them. You can also see where to meet other Pixar friends during Pixar Fest with our Pixar Fest Character Guide.
There are six Pixar Fest marketplaces to visit between now and August 4th when the festival concludes. They offer foods that are inspired by Pixar films. There is not a Sip & Savor pass this time around. However, guests can purchase foods from multiple marketplaces at one time. Then they can simply take their receipt to each marketplace to redeem their purchase. Below is a look at what is being offered.
