You never know who you might see in Disney World! Even on vacation hundreds of miles from home, we’ve bumped into friends and neighbors in the Disney parks. It’s such a fun surprise!
Hi, Mickey!
Sometimes, if you’re EXTRA lucky, you might even see a celebrity in the parks. The rare “celebrity sighting” is a bucket list item for many Disney fans, and if you happened to be in Disney World recently, you may have spotted a pop ICON.
OK, we should back up for a moment. We’re currently in the middle of the 2024 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival in Disney World, and in addition to the HUGE selection of snacks and drinks (Fry Flights! Mac and Cheese! CHEDDAR CHEESE SOUP!), there are also live concerts starring some popular artists.
FULL LINEUP Announced for the 2024 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival Eat to the Beat Concert Series
In fact, the Eat to the Beat Concert Series just hosted Joey Fatone and friends, and fans LOVED the performances. Recognize that name?

Well, Joey Fatone and Lance Bass were former members of *NSYNC, and if you didn’t know, they are also big Disney fans! Lance Bass took to Instagram to share some photos from his recent visit to Disney World.

His Instagram caption read, “Three days post Disney and the kids are still asking if they can wear their Mickey ears ? (Did you peep the stitching on the hats?) Hope everyone is staying safe in the Florida area this week, sending all my love!”

Bass and his family visited The Crystal Palace for a character meal with Pooh and friends, met Cinderella and Mickey, watched the Festival of Fantasy parade, and even visited Toy Story Land in Disney’s Hollywood Studios! It was a BUSY trip.

One of our favorite parts of his post was this photo of the family’s Mickey ear souvenirs. Each hat features embroidered text that says, “It’s gonna be 3!” in honor of a sweet birthday celebration (with a little nod to *NSYNC). How CUTE!
