It’s official! Nick and Judy are going to be mainstay characters at Disney Parks! It’s only been 2/3 of a year since the movie was released, but hey, better late than never!

This news comes to us from several sources, including ThrillGeek and Orlando Weekly, which claim that they will be making their first appearance as regular characters, avaliable for meet-and-greets, as a part of Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. The event will run from November 7th to December 22nd, and the dynamic duo will likely remain in the parks after that!

This is especially great news for us, considering that it’s been months since the petition to make them regulars was started. We have no idea if it actually influenced the parks’ decision or not, but it does feel good to get what you ask for. Eventually.
