Official 2020 Star Wars Rival Run Weekend - CANCELED

[LandoBlanco]

Parks Scheduling question for you:
We leave WDW on Tuesday after the race. We have HS planned for that Monday, and will probably do the After Hours event that night.

What’s the after hours event?

What’s the after hours event?

Just the standard "Disney After Hours At Magic Kingdom Park" event from 10pm-1am. It's a $129 hard ticket event held a lot of nights this spring.

What’s the after hours event?

The Magic Kingdom after hours event Monday night.

We are doing Cali Grill brunch after the half. Then head over to MK. Probably do the mountains on FP and take it easy. Then After Hours Monday night to get our ride fix in.

 

[Chaitali]

We’re doing the Monday after hours event too

 

[drummerwife]

DH and I will be there as well. We leave the next day and can think of no better way to end a vacation then closing down MK!

I crossed off the Star Wars Virtual Half Marathon today.

I haven’t run more than 8 miles since Dopey, but I’ve been trying to ramp things back up. I ran 8 yesterday and had 12 on the schedule for today. I had to skip my Thursday run due to torrential rain and wind from the storm that swept up the East Coast, though, so I thought I might as well push today’s run out an extra mile. Everything felt good, so that’s half of the Kessel Run done.

Heads up, folks - just got notice from Touring Plans that they've updated the hours for HS on Sunday, 4/19. Opening at 9:00 a.m., with evening EMH (8:30-10:30).

If anyone was planning to spend Sunday exploring Batuu and showing off your new race bling (uh - ME!), you might want to check your plans! (Now I just need them to officially schedule the Star Wars fireworks...and maybe open the dessert party so my Star Wars celebration day can end on a highlight! LOL)

I'm now wishing I'd have made my big group Oga's ADR for later in the evening, but that ship has sailed, lol! Oh well: lots more time to enjoy green milk and multiple trips on the Falcon!

I fully expect them to readjust the opening hours closer to that day itself. The day after the marathon, DHS was supposed to open at 8:00am. The Friday before the marathon they changed opening to 7:00am. As much as I would love to see those hours hold, I do not think they will.

Yep, I fully expect to see an 8:00am open time, at minimum.

non race related but depending on the 'special characters' may need to coax my sister to play sick on her Birthday to have a park day

Hi all...I know that the race specific (limited edition) MagicBands have long since been sold out during online registration. Do you think that there is any chance to purchase one at the Expo if I get there the first day for packet pickup? This will be my first runDisney event and I really had hoped to get the MagicBand.

I don't expect any to be available. But I'm doing the same thing, showing up early on Thursday and hoping.

It's worth a shot. Honestly, in recent years I've found the best chance at sold out merchandise has been the merchandise tent at the finish line, as the ebay resellers return what they weren't able to sell right away.

If they don’t have the LE ones I know that they normally have race specific bands at Dtech on demand at Disney Springs

Is it bad that I saw BTS Tours, and my brain automatically went to the Kpop group? I shudder to think how busy the parks would be if BTS came, and army got wind of it early.

My wife is actually going to go as Randy.

Haven't finalized the half costumes yet.

 

[DurangoJim]

My wife and I are running our first Star Wars race (the 5K) and were so excited! I had these made for us to wear!

Good week for me. 4 runs and 32km (20 miles). Booked fastpass last night and got all rides I wanted and close to time slots I wanted with a few big ones booked twice

 

[MissLiss279]

Just booked my fastpasses - didn’t get a Mickey & Minnie’s RR, so I’m hoping the standby won’t be too long...
