Daisy Duck and Minnie Mouse have joined the circus, and apparently neither one believes in dressing down for the occasion. At Pete's Silly Sideshow in Storybook Circus, you can meet Daisy Fortuna and Minnie Magnifique in some of the most colorful character costumes you'll find in Magic Kingdom.


✨ Experience

You'll meet both Daisy and Minnie during this experience, although each gets her own individual interaction and photo. Daisy appears as the mysterious fortune teller Daisy Fortuna while Minnie takes center stage as Minnie Magnifique. Neither character speaks, but both communicate through gestures, hugs and poses, and the circus costumes make the photos much different from their more traditional looks elsewhere around Walt Disney World.

🌴 Atmosphere

Pete's Silly Sideshow feels like stepping backstage at an old-fashioned traveling circus. The colorful banners, props and character costumes make this one of the more heavily themed classic-character meets in Magic Kingdom. It is also indoors, which makes it a nice escape when Fantasyland starts feeling like the surface of the sun.


⏱️ Wait & Best Time to Meet

The wait gets you both Daisy and Minnie, which makes the time spent in line a little easier to justify. Check the posted wait while you're in Storybook Circus, especially if you're already visiting Dumbo or The Barnstormer. Earlier in the day or quieter periods can mean a shorter wait.

🌟 Final Thoughts

This is one of our favorite ways to meet Daisy and Minnie because their circus costumes make the photos feel different from the standard classic-character meet. Getting two characters from one queue is also a nice bonus. If Daisy is on your character list, you might as well come home with Minnie too.
