FYI If your in Orlando now...

The Disney Character warehouse in the Premium Outlets has 50% off the entire store. They said they are closing until the fall

Closing for the height of the summer season? Oh my! It's a must-do every trip and I'd be so disappointed to turn up there and the doors are locked! Do you know if it is both stores (the one on Vineland close to Crossroads and the one on I-drive?)

 

[haj697]

Did they say when exactly? We are headed down next week and we always make time to go over there.

 

[cnunley424]

I don't know if it's both stores. I'm going to the other one today so I will find out

I really hope they are not closing the one on Vineland Road.

We are planing on hitting both stores on June 20th when we are down there. Hoping they are both open. Which store told you this?

 

[Traveliz]

I was at the one on international a few days ago and happened onto the sale. They said they had a couple of weeks left but we're not specific. I do not know if the one on Vineland is closing.

Has anyone else been able to confirm the temporary closure? This is giving me the sads. We always make multiple visits during our Disney trips.

 

[lost*in*cyberspace]

You could just call the store and ask.

 

[team weasel]

I'm going to. They don't open until 10.

 

[team weasel]

FYI - I was wrong about the opening time. They open at 9. I called the number on the Premium Outlet site, but I'm getting a sort of voice mail. Oh well.

So glad I opened this thread. Going to the Vineland one is on the itinerary for our visit around the 4th of July. Looking forward to updates from people going today, thanks!

I'm a pretty reliable source as well as a pretty smart shopper. It was clear by the signage in the store, the items in the store ( and more obviously the items they have pulled from the store) and the numerous conversations I participated in and overheard the International dr location is closing for refurb in the next few weeks and is scheduled to reopen in the fall.

[team weasel]

My apologies, Liz. I didn't mean to insinuate that you weren't a reliable source. I misread your post. I thought you had only happened upon the sale, which is expected to last a couple of weeks. I didn't realize you were confirming the closure. PS - YAY for smart shoppers!

I have the sads for real now.

Guess I'm not going to the Outlet this summer.

 

[ArielRae]

So has anyone found out what store is closing and the expected closure date?

 

[ArielRae]

Ok I just called the premium outlet's main office number (not character warehouse number) and they said they don't have an official closing date for the store but it will close in a week or two so it can be remodeled. They did confirm that the Vineland store will be remaining open. They suggest calling the store directly but I haven't been able to get thru. Hopfully someone can try calling or stop by and find out for all of us.

 

[ArielRae]

Ok there seems to be no way to directly call the store and speak to someone so I left a message for them to call me back and hopefully let us know when their closure date will be.

 

[HopperFan]

Vineland already had a recent renovation and now increased stock. I don't see it closing for a reno.

My stepson is in Orlando and was planning on going to the outlets. I just sent him a text about this and told him to let me know what is there if I want him to pick me up something. Not sure when he will make it there but I will come back here when I hear from him. Thanks for starting this post. We are heading down end of Ictober so hope it is open by then.
