"... we are very appreciative of the amazing cast and guests who have devoted their time and talent to make this experience special and memorable," a joint statement from Walt Disney World, FremantleMedia and 19 Entertainment said. "We are incredibly proud of the more than 2,000 Dream Tickets that have given guests a chance to live their very own Cinderella story and audition for American Idol."
Disney said three of the top 13 contestants on the TV show were originally discovered through the American Idol Experience.
"We expect the attraction to continue providing top contestants for American Idol XIV in the coming year," the statement said.
It's not known what will replace the attraction.
