• Lilo & Stitch received an Oscar nomination for Best Animated Feature, one of three Disney films nominated in the category that year. The others were Sen to Chihiro no kamikakushi (2001) and Treasure Planet.
• The cities featured on the postcards during the scene when Lilo and Stitch are having a snow cone include New York, Honolulu, San Fransisco, Toronto, Orlando (with a picture of the Walt Disney World Resort on the front), Dallas, Chicago, and Hong Kong.
• The original version of the flying chase scene at the end of the film involved Stitch and Jumba hijacking an airplane and chasing Gantu's spaceship through Honolulu, crashing into buildings. The sequence was already animated and completed, but the whole chase was cut following the terrorist attacks on the USA of 11 September 2001. The chase had to be re-written and drawn again (this time with spaceships flying through mountains and less populated vegetation), and the second version of the chase was is what is seen in the theatrical version.
• "He Mele No Lilo" has caused debate regarding intellectual property rights. The "Mele" is a melding of two older chants to King David Kalakaua and Queen Lili'uokalani.
