Hi Emileigh, welcome to planDisney!
What is it about Experiment 626, aka Stitch, that makes him so irresistible?! The tween in my life can't get enough of this fluffy troublemaker, as evidenced by her ever-growing collection of Stitch merchandise. I was in your exact same Stitch slippers a few months ago when we made plans for my daughter to meet her favorite character at Walt Disney World Resort.
In
Magic Kingdom Park, Stitch can currently be found at the Rocket Tower Plaza Stage in Tomorrowland. This stage is found between Space Mountain and Disney's Carousel of Progress. It's important to note that this location is currently a character sighting, not a meet and greet. Stitch will remain on stage and you can get a picture with him in the background, but he's not signing autographs or available for warm hugs.
If a Stitch hug and autograph are a priority, you'll get both with a breakfast reservation at
'Ohana at Disney's Polynesian Village Resort. This popular character dining experience also features Stitch waffles, delicious Pineapple-Coconut Breakfast Bread, and an All-You-Care-To-Enjoy breakfast skillet. My daughter was tempted to add on a Stitch Smoothie but ended up being quite satisfied with the POG juice. Advance reservations for dining can be made
online 60 days in advance. Day of, you can also join the
mobile walk-up list as proximity and availability allow.
This past year, Elvis Stitch was also signing autographs during
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. This special ticket event, which I highly recommend, traditionally happens on select nights from August through October. Keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog for more information about this year's dates.
In the weeks leading up to your visit, Emileigh, be sure to download and use the
My Disney Experience mobile app to track the most recent location(s) and times for meeting Stitch. You can find information about all available characters by clicking the location icon on the bottom menu of the app. Next, click the down caret and select "Characters" from the dropdown menu. You can even filter by park.
You're an official member of planDisney's 'Ohana now, Emileigh. Feel free to visit us repeatedly as you plan your upcoming vacation. We're happy to help with any Stitch-uation!
Choose magic,
Jennifer
