Stitch’s Great Escape to close forever… A final closing date has finally been set for Stitch’s Great Escape at the Magic Kingdom. January 6, 2018 will be the last day of operation for this much maligned Tomorrowland attraction. Stitch’s Great Escape replaced the ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter in 2004 and has never been a very well received attraction. Stitch’s Great Escape has been operating seasonally since October 2, 2016. There is no word on what attraction will replace Stitch’s but rumors over the last few years have pointed to a Wreck-It-Ralph attraction. With the 50 th Anniversary of the Walt Disney World Resort coming up in 2021, it may be a few years until we see something new in this space. Several new Magic Kingdom attractions are scheduled to open by then and the same should be true of this space!
Recently I went down to Walt Disney World to stay at Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort and see what's going on with construction! Several people have asked me if they should stay there or not but I'm excited to tell you that they have done a good job with hiding construction sites! You mostly see the walls up but the pools are still the same, they brought in food trucks while we were there so you could have several food options, and everything else still operated the same! If you have been wanting to plan a vacation here, I would say go for it! We were even able to stay in a remodeled room! Contact your memory maker today to start planning your Disney World vacation!
