Waiting in long lines at Disney World can be tough — but we waited in one on the Fourth of July that was TOTALLY worth it.

Disney has been celebrating the Fourth of July with all kinds of special things — fireworks at Magic Kingdom, fireworks at EPCOT, special snacks, and even a flyover. But there’s one special experience you’ll want to wait for even if the line is long.

Over at EPCOT in the American Adventure pavilion, we found some Disney friends in seriously festive looks — it’s Mickey, Pluto, and Goofy in their Fourth of July best!

The line for this meet-and-greet was LONG though. We hopped in line for this meet-and-greet around 11:35AM and it took us until close to 1PM to see our friends. By comparison, at around 1:07PM, the longest wait time in EPCOT was 60 minutes for Test Track, followed by 55 minutes for Frozen Ever After. So, this very well might have been the LONGEST line in EPCOT (or at least one of the longest) — but it was WORTH IT.

Just check out Mickey’s epic look…

…Pluto’s adorable hat…

…and Goofy’s ensemble.

It was so great to see these characters in these unique outfits!

But wait…there’s MORE. Nearby, Chip and Dale were also meeting guests in a festive look. Their line was significantly shorter when we visited though.

Inside the American Adventure Pavilion, there were some beautiful lighting effects…

…and the Voices of Liberty were performing. They had quite the audience.

It just goes to show — the Fourth of July is SO much more than just fireworks at Disney World. There are a number of other limited-time offerings to check out, so be sure to factor that into your plans when scheduling visits in the future.

We’ll keep an eye out for other updates, so stay tuned!
