According to sources within the company, 49 year old Magic Kingdom Vice President Dan Cockerell will retire next month.
Dan became the Magic Kingdom Vice President in 2015 during a reshuffle which saw long-time Magic Kingdom VP Phil Holmes move to the Studios VP role in a swap. Prior to that, he was the Vice President of Epcot during his 26 year Disney career.
Apparently Dan will start a speaking and consulting company, with plans to travel.
No word yet on a replacement, and Dan's final day will be May 11 2018.
