"Our TouringPlans subscription was a lifesaver on our trip. One of the busiest days of the year, and we never waited longer than 20 minutes!"

Description And Comments
Pete’s Silly Sideshow is a circus-themed character-greeting area. The characters’ costumes are distinct from the ones normally worn around the parks. Characters on the "Daring Disney Pals" side are Goofy as "The Great Goofini" and Donald Duck as "The Astounding Donaldo."
Touring Tips
Pete's opens later than the rest of the park -- usually at 10 am -- and closes just before the fireworks. The queue is indoor and air-conditioned. Note that there is one queue for Donald and Goofy, and a second queue for the Minnie and Daisy. You can meet Donald plus Goofy (or Minnie and Daisy) sequentially with a minimal wait in between, but you have to line up twice to meet all four characters at the Sideshow.
See our Disney character meet and greet tips and frequently asked questions page for more information on meeting characters.
