Where to Meet Goofy and Max Goof at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Max and Goofy are a fun pair who typically meet at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. You might run into them together from time to time, but often, they rotate this meet-and-greet. Goofy, playing the role of a cool dad, wears a tropical shirt sporting vacation vibes. While Max, the typical teen, wears a bright red shirt with purple pants like he did in A Goofy Movie.
Max also met in his Powerline cosplay outfit at Hollywood Studios for a limited time. (Powerline is a world-famous rock star famous amongst teens in the movie.) These days, Max wears his Powerline outfit during Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party and Jollywood Nights at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Below, we’ll discuss where to find Goofy and Max at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Max and Goofy meet intermittently between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Their official meet-and-greet times are listed in the My Disney Experience app. Here are the instructions for checking the app. But a word of warning: These two have moved several times over the last year, so you’ll want to check the My Disney Experience app on the day of your visit for their exact location and availability.
How to Locate Characters in the My Disney Experience App
- Open the MDE app and select the pin drop at the bottom of the home screen.
- Select the “Characters” category at the top middle of the screen. (The default is “Wait Times”.)
- After selecting characters, use the park filter to select the park on the top left side of the screen.
- Then, on the top right side of the screen, select “Show List.”
- Scroll through the list of characters with their times and locations.
*As the day passes, you might notice that characters disappear from the app. When their last scheduled time passes, the meet-and-greet automatically disappears. A new schedule won’t be loaded until the following day. It is essential to check the app for meet-and-greets on the day of your visit.
Over the past few years, they’ve met in a couple of locations at Hollywood Studios, including:
- Twilight Zone Tower of Terror Side Patio
- Grand Ave across from Muppets Courtyard
- Echo Lake
Here is a photo that shows where they sometimes meet near Echo Lake.
Max is a popular character. We waited in line for approximately 30 minutes the last time we met him.
He is full of energy and always ready to pose for the camera. Here are a few photos.
If they aren’t meeting near Echo Lake, you’ll likely find them at Grand Ave, across the walkway from Muppets Courtyard. This offset area is on the right before you enter Galaxy’s Edge. Here is a photo of the location.
Goofy meets guests in his tropical vacation vibe shirt at this location.
Like father like son, Goofy and Max both love to pose for the camera.
Goofy is always good for a laugh.
Need to Know:
- Max and Goofy both sign autographs, so you’ll want to have your autograph books out and ready for them to sign.
- PhotoPass photographers were available on the day of our visit. However, they are not guaranteed.
- If you have trouble finding a character, ask a cast member wearing a blue shirt at any character meet. These cast members work with characters and are usually in the know about where and when to find someone.
- Always check the My Disney Experience app on the day of your visit for the exact location and time of character meet-and-greets. (Always)
