Where to Meet Stitch at Magic Kingdom (Near the Space Ranger Spin Exit)
Stitch, our favorite blue alien from Lilo and Stitch, meets daily near the Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin exit courtyard in Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom. While he’s had a variety of meet-and-greets at Magic Kingdom over the years, he seems to have settled here, for now, anyway. Below, we’ll discuss details of his location, including how to find him in the My Disney Experience app.
This afternoon, I got in line at 3:25 p.m. for the 3:30 p.m. meet-and-greet. Over 40 guests were already waiting, mostly in direct sunlight. Here’s a photo of a portion of the line. For reference, this location is between the Carousel of Progress and Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin. There are two garage-style doors on the back wall under the Peoplemover. Stitch meets on the right side, and Buzz formerly met on the left. (Sometimes you might see Chip and Dale roaming the Tomorrowland area as space cadets.)
I ended up way back here. A cast member was trying to count how many guests were waiting before Stitch came out.
When I met Stitch, it was 3:58 p.m., so I waited a total of 33 minutes. Given the number of people ahead of us, the wait wasn’t that bad. But I also felt that guests were moving more quickly than normal because of the heat and lack of shade.
Stitch signs autographs at this location, and he’s always ready to make a silly pose. A PhotoPass photographer was present on the day I visited.
This meet-and-greet is usually listed in the My Disney Experience app. We always recommend checking the app on the day of your visit for a character’s exact location and time. Here are the instructions.
How to Find Stitch in the My Disney Experience App
- Open the My Disney Experience app and select the pin drop at the bottom of the home screen.
- Scroll (left to right) through the icons at the top of the screen and select “Characters.”
- After selecting characters, use the locations drop-down to select the park of your choice.
- Then, on the bottom right of the screen, select “Show List.”
- Scroll through the list of characters with their times and locations.
- As an alternative, you can use the map view to locate characters.
*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.

When a character’s meet-and-greet is over for the day, their listing will disappear from the app. So make sure you’re aware of the times and get in line earlier rather than later for any important meet-and-greets for your group.
