Stitch's Great Escape! is a "theater-in-the-round" attraction found in the Tomorrowland area at Creator/{{Disney}}'s [[Ride/DisneyThemeParks Magic Kingdom]] in Ride/WaltDisneyWorld. The ride opened on November 16, 2004, replacing the Ride/ExtraTERRORestrialAlienEncounter, and is the first ''Franchise/LiloAndStitch''-themed attraction by the company.
Taking place before the events of the original ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitch'' film, the ride is an interactive experience where Experiment 626 (better known as Stitch) has a [[BlatantLies "treat for your eyes, ears, and nose"]].
The premise is that the park's guests are new recruits working for the [[TheFederation United Galactic Federation's]] Prisoner Teleport Center. After being welcomed by the Grand Councilwoman and debriefed by Captain Gantu and a robotic sergeant, recruits are alerted to the impending arrival of a "Level 3" prisoner and taken to a large holding cell with seats surrounding a teleportation tube in the middle. Shortly after recruits are seated, the "Level 3" prisoner is teleported in and revealed to be an adorable looking creature called Experiment 626. Although confused at first, Gantu, his cohorts, and the recruits would soon learn why 626 is so dangerous, as the blue alien tricks his holding cell's security and begins his "[[TitleDrop great escape]]".
The ride last ran as a regularly-operating attraction on October 1, 2016 (the 45th anniversary of Walt Disney World) and began seasonal operation[[note]]meaning that the ride usually runs during peak periods when the park is more crowded, such as around major UsefulNotes/AmericanHolidays[[/note]] the following day. A full year later, on October 2, 2017, the pre-show area's first room was converted into a Stitch meet-and-greet, named "Stitch's [[MythologyGag Alien Encounter]] Character Greeting!".

In October 2018, the attraction was dismantled though it remains to be seen if it's permanent or temporary to make room for ongoing construction in Fantasyland.

Disney World guests and fans didn't find SGE! to be so "great", however. The ride is infamous for being [[NightmareFuel somewhat scary]] and [[NauseaFuel pretty nasty]], and also for hugely pissing off the fans of its predecessor. It would quickly build up an awful reputation it would never be able to shake off, to the point that it may have played a role in its affiliated franchise's loss of American popularity. Most park guests tend to skip this ride or ride it only once, and the ride usually gets called one of the "worst" attractions at Walt Disney World (which some people don't necessarily agree with, but we'll leave that to the YMMV page).

Nobody outside of Disney ''definitively'' knows for sure what's going on in that building in Tomorrowland, but the one thing that is certain about Stitch's Great Escape! is that it has definitely left its mark in Walt Disney World history. For better or for worse.
