Elena of Avalor To Meet Guests This Summer
Guests will soon have a new Disney Princess to meet. Princess Elena from the upcoming Disney Channel show “Elena of Avalor” will begin meeting Guests this August at the Magic Kingdom.
While we don’t necessarily know a lot about Elena yet, we do know that she is a bold princess who’s love for her family and kingdom takes her on magical adventures. She is a confident and compassionate teenager in an enchanted fairytale kingdom inspired by diverse Latin cultures and folklore and therefore, she is the first Disney Princess inspired by Latin diversities.
She will debut in a special episode of “Sofia the First” on Disney Junior next year, which will then translate into her own spin-off series. Elena is voiced by Aimee Carrero, of Freeform’s “Young & Hungry.”
“Elena of Avalor” is scheduled to debut on the Disney Channel on August 1.
Stay tuned to the blog for more details on when you and your little one can meet Princess Elena.
Have to wonder if this new Disney Junior princess is a response to the controversial rollout of Sofia the First, a princess that was supposed to be Hispanic but looks decidedly Caucasian.
